The Teenage Stud!


When your baby is all of a sudden a teenager you have to wonder where the years went. I can't believe Andrew is 13 this year and in 7th grade. Only 5 more years until I have an empty nest. I had to share his picture because he is so stinking cute! Well, at least to me he is. Enjoy!

My New Financial Plan

With the current financial crisis, I've done some evaluation and here's my new plan:
  • If I had purchased $1,000 of shares in Delta Airlines one year ago, I would have $49.00 today.
  • If I had purchased $1,000 of shares in AIG one year ago, I would have $33.00 today.
  • If I had purchased $1,000 of shares in Lehman Brothers one year ago, I would have $0.00 today.
  • If I had purchased $1,000 worth of beer one year ago, drank all the beer, then turned in the aluminum cans for recycling refund, I would have $214.00.

Based on the above, the best current investment plan is to drink heavily & recycle. It is called the 401-Keg.
