So, Greg, overall you're happy with your Charles Schwab online account?

Right now I have a Merrill Lynch account, because that's what the state says I have to have. I'm doing very well in it, and as long as the governor doesn't get his way I will be able to buy service credit and retire with 72% of my salary at 55, or 90% at 60. I have a 457 plan that lowers my pretax liabilities and doesn't have any penalties for early withdrawal. I still haven't desided weather once I start maxing out my 457 if I should continue to invest in stocks, or amortize the hell out of some real estate.

Someting tells me years from now, ill look back on this with a wife and kids, and think "man, I used to have money!"
