60+ year old thread.

Hi all! Have a great day!!

Ken - new job doesn't start until 1 July. Going through transition - and working with the trustee rep to draft my contract. They didn't start the roof yet - delivered materials and the dumpster yesterday. Not sure if they'll get going today or wait until after tonight's snow.

 

"6" ... I'd like to meet your friend.

Mornin' Ken...and the rest of you fine folk too.

Please don't forget prayers for Chet and his family.

God Bless and have a wonderful day!

 

If you did not know how old you were how old would you be?

 

Some where north of 80... Jim

 

Mornin' Tim & Jim!

That there is one of them conundrums, huh?

 

Feeling older myself today. All the paint fumes and dust is making me cough a lot. I do not really like the coughing part at all. Cleaned the windows today after I put the final coat of paint on the walls in the bathroom. Once the closet doors are hung today I will begin painting them.

I need to go to the HD for two register covers and to look at outlet covers.

I has no before pics but I should take some after pics.

 

morning all: X2, and that's on a good day !

 

Old enough to know better(second time around)...somewhere around fiftyishmaybe...Ken

 

Morning all! A dusting of snow last night. I was doen in Phildelphia for a 76'ers game - had to be the worst game I've seen. I don't think the 6'ers hit 30% from the floor. At least I had great seats and some friends to talk to!!

Work day again today!!

 

Mornin' "6"! I'll trade your dusting of snow for the freezing rain I drove in through tonight....deal ? Glad I'm on nights and commute during low traffic times. Watching the inbound folks in the morning while I'm outbound heading home ought to be interesting.

Have a great day .... and God Bless you and yours!

 

Morning All...

Thanks for the update Mark...hope you get a good contract and the job goes well...

I was in Philadelphia too at the Walnut Street theater last night, saw Agatha Christies "The Mouse Trap"...we go 5 times a season to see plays and musicals. Makes for a good night but getting up in the A.M. is a little rough...Ken

 

Morning. I love me some twisties! truck handles pretty dang good for a truck. FJC also handle good friend has one. I have hit some roads that friends in cars had a hard time keeping up. Well really I lost them. Lol

 

Morning All, Glad on the new job for you 6. Was hoping they would put you in there, but thinking it was going to be some far leftie who never did anything for anyone but himself..Most of higher Ed. just looks like hot beds for the far left now. Jim

 

Mornin' Jim.

 

Rob..

 

morning all: HMMMM! remember a post about BAC, and I didn't want to pull the trigger. just didn't trust it, and didn't want to invest the kind of money in it that would be needed to make really good gains. WELL- $8.22, up from $4.96. 60+ % gain. oh well hindsight is easy.
I guess a FEW new tacomas will have to stay at the dealer !
now lets see; how long would it take to make 60%, at the .13% I'm making at the bank, or 1.25% MM, or 2.25% CD.?
maby I can write it off on income tax. I should have made it , but I didn't, so I lost it. OH WAIT; that's only for big corporations.
funny. am watching CNN money, as I'm posting. cramer mentioned the IRS position;" YOUR GUILTY UNTILL YOU PROVE YOUR INOCENT"

 

A scared gambler and a jealous pimp never made a dime (That's from my cuz Ricky's mouth) He came from nothing to lets say tens of mil's. of the stuff. NEVER BUY WITH YOUR HEART OR BUY SCARED.... Jim

 

morning all.

No snow or rain here, but I did have to scrape the windows this morning.

Carl, remember it's special rules for special people and us "common folk" don't qualify. Like Congress and their "insider trading" that would have gotten any of us sent to jail, but was "ok" for them

 

thanks jim: I really needed that. but LOSSES hurt! (just mentally). it's the long run that counts. it seems every advisor said to stay away from financials. SHOWS WHAT THEY KNOW! 60+% gain is good $.
we had posted on this before, on how they can take investors money, not have to pay any debt (or pennies on the dollar), reorganize, issue new shares, and business as usual. GM, which you mentioned, is a prime example.
shouldn't be too concerned about cap.gains anymore-BUT, they're there to be HARVESTED!!!
