Well --- someone must be reading this poopie thread! The page view count jumped a 100 points since I posted this morning...
And I got a good question from a new reader about how to calculate Total Return.. He's mid 20's and is already a saver and investor! Don't some of you wish you'd saved and invested 25 or 30 years ago?!?!?! Then you could be a lazy azz bum like me and goof off all day!


Truth be told I never saved a dang dime -- We just got lucky and went from zero to hero in one fell swoop... but it's been a good 25+ years of reinvesting and making that initial windfall grow. So I guess I've managed to not be as big a bum as I think I am...
