Geez...thats large. Nicely done.
Dad and I have been playing "The Commodities Market" since I was a teen. We started out on paper, then tried cocoa, rice, lumber, pork bellies *SMIRK*, etc. when I had real money to invest. He did a lot of research into silver and his theories are pretty sound, IMHO. We've also done well in real estate. It's pretty easy in the Midwest; prices stay within normal range, versus speculating on the coasts.
He's been a great teacher. He's a Christian version of Ben Stein, LOL! I'm a lucky girl to have had a Dad like that. Not many women know what to do with their hard-earned money, which is an outrage!
And I have a husband whom I love dearly, but he is a total Spendthrift. His Life Theory is, "It's Only Money. I'll Make More!" So, I need to protect my assets for the future as statistically, I'll outlive him. And if not, he'll be playing the role of 'The Wealthy Widower' with the neighbor ladies plying him with casseroles and other "goodies" and I won't know the difference, LOL!
