Thanks.
That was me in the early/mid 70's sitting in gas lines.
$4.35 to $4.89 here in Winnebago County.
A lot of the trucking companies are moving their trailers via rail.
Because a great many of their TV commercials portray white males such as yourself as either knaves, trolls, or drooling idiots who need to be saved by their wimmenfolk.
I live close by where I work but my wife is 20 miles away from hers. We are averaging over $100 a week for gas now. Used to be less than $40.
Gas is still going up. My wife is about to retire and that will help on gas but less money from her retirement really makes the budget harder and harder.
I LITERALLY HATE anyone who voted for Biden now. I refuse to associate with anyone, outside of work, who voted for him.
We are retired and our retirement pay are more than enough to cover our bill. In fact, we are saving about $1,100/month.
We will probably put some into a money market fund and the a growth and income mutual fund when the market hits bottom.
You have a name that reminds me of the UHF service on the west coast.
Enough of that.
I believe that there could be a huge upswing in the market.
It will wait until the mid-terms. It is just a reversal of fortune that cycles global.
I call it “Make Hay while the grass is green”.
Nice.
I wish you both much success!
Crazy times.
True. That’s about my maximum timeframe, being 60. Don’t think I’ll need my 401K before about 80 (although the RMD can hurt me nonetheless).
