Those take a trip to WalMart..... Specifically - the one right there on I-5 and the 162 turnoff to Thunderhill. $4.99 for the giant plastic jar of artificial delights...

More proof that you just have to get in if you want to make money instead of waiting on the sidelines for the "right time".




Good for you Trey!! And yes --- the key is just to forge ahead and get in whenever a guy is ready. Investing just isn't about todays price.... it's about getting invested in the proper KINDS of stocks - and then staying invested and plowing those dividends back in for the compounding affect. Next thing you know - you're happily retired floating in the pool in Maui sipping on a Pina Colada....

Failure to invest - timing the market - buying high and selling low - that will have you retired as a greeter at WalMart or wrapping breakfast sandwiches at McDonalds when you're 70...

The choices people make NOW -- will determine their "fate" later when they can do the least about it. I know which way I'd choose to go.
