Very nice...

I try to give the troops some of my info to give a smaller perspective. 400 dollars overnight. One fund out of 11.

Sorry before I said 17, but 11 are dividend payers..

Still, enough wealth at work, that took decades to earn, let alone SAVE.

Cause we all know , "it isn't what you earn, but what you keep", and "It isn't what you have, but what you own/Worth"..

But you always get me jacked and excited.

Because I get to feeling smart and powerful, and then i realize that I am just a puppy in this game.

All be it, a very Lucky and Smart Puppy, but I tell my Wife, "you just wait".. Because I am going one direction..Up..

I have been poor, and rich, and then poor and then rich(rich to me),..I think I have enough smarts now to stay in the right direction..

But more learning is on my List for 2012...As it has been for many years..

Keep up the Great work Greg, i am here to rally the troops , and to chime in with specifics on occasion..

P.S. I did manage to change my 401K to now yield 9.5%... I am working with limited choices, but hey, I will keep an eye on it.

It only holds 10% of the total portfolio due to mumbo jumbo and fees that are written in mandarin Chinese.. The Schwab account is crystal clear.

Also due to heart and brain problems 2 years ago, i had to retire from working.. To what ?? The greatest time in our history for making money.Talk about luck.
