ezmoney's Account Talk

So now the current administration must get busy on getting those undocumented democrats registered (illegal immigrants). To make sure they regain the POWER. So maybe Massachusetts has decided to rejoin America. The only problem is America can not for the life of them get beyond democrat or republican you just swap one for another; what we need is to throw them all out and have that third party take control with term limits at eight years no more than twelve and then you are out. That want stop labor unions and special interest courtship but will make them have to start the process over again to see who they can get on the payroll. That is half the problem in itself. The FBI is always setting up stings but they sure don't seem to catch any of the union,special interest and politicians in their bribery scams. Know telling how many would be serving time if they would try to get the real crooks in DC. What they are doing is unconstitutional and down right illegal but everything seems OK with the feds. The justices too! if they would get off their duff and have the whole thing investigated most of those in DC would be charged with treason based on their complete disregard for our constitution. Yes we are going to really show them something in November. The republican will get there POWER again and go in with nothing but lip service and no real plan just like the democrats. We will swap parties and nothing more. The parties will be fighting amongst themselves just as they have always done. They are so self serving. They can not get past party politics and do what is right by the American citizens and the good of the Nation. Of course I hope I'm wrong but I don't think so, they will have to prove otherwise.:notrust:

Preach it EZ!! Preach it.

There goes that pie again will have to settle for mere crumbs. Oh well you play to win but have to accept the loses.

Don't you see it? Brown making his rounds shaking hands. Then the line forms the long line of union and special interest. As he begins shaking hands each one slips him an envelope several lean over and whispers in his ear, "Ted and I worked real close together". Several remind him that if there is anything he needs just let them know. Several mention invitations to their yachts and private dinner parties, Brown smiles and nods eagerly. Now Brown is home in his study he carefully opens the envelopes which contains hundred of thousand dollars. He immediately falls to the floor throwing the money all over himself and laughing aaaahhhh! this is the good life they were telling me about in DC. Once again nothing has changed.:notrust:

Oh where oh where can our money be gone, oh where oh where can it be. A loss is a loss I want my money back. Those blasted trade limits keeps us in or keeps us out. Hanging in the (I Fund) get a bit of it back today well if the market holds. Contemplating a move to G & F for February no decision yet just mulling it around a bit. Looking at and reading what may transpire before making a definite decision. Still have those two IFT's for month of January.

I know that most of us talk about how it would be nice to have more than 2 IFT's a month. But I really think what hurts us more is that we have to make up our minds by noon EST if we want to make an IFT. If you are stationed in Alaska or Hawaii you need to make up your mind by 8 and 7 am respectively. If we could get the FRTIB to move the trading deadline to even 3:30pm EST that would have a huge benifit to all TSP members. Other than a law suit I just don't see it happening.

Yep and then some.:embarrest:

 

[ezmoney]

Thought maybe January would be a fairly good month. Thought that would start to show a decline going into February. Since the last week of January looks like a crash and burn, think I will forgo the G & F for February and hang tight with the (I Fund) the way I figure I can only do two things lose or gain heeeeee! heeeeee! These rollercoaster rides aren't as much fun as they were when I was younger.

 

[DCguy]

well they like Ben and he is expected to get his 2nd term. Lets see how the market reacts.

 

[ezmoney]

I ain't scared of no ghost.

 

[ezmoney]

Plz take the snow and ice away. I'm a shagging kind of guy I like beaches and sand in my shoes.

 

[akpackfan]

Aww shucks...... Snow and ice ain't so bad.......

 

[nasa1974]

Aww shucks...... Snow and ice ain't so bad.......

It's the Wind Chill factor of -60 degrees that gets a little tricky. Heck snow and ice is nothing compared to that. :nuts:

The attached picture was taken in 2003 and is a friend of mine stationed in Fairbanks.

Markets are playing tricks with our money; we better keep our eyes open and fingers close to the keys.

We lived at Ft Wainwright in the early to mid 50's. It was Ladd AFB at the time.

We left in March of 57 it was -55 degrees below zero and a driving snow storm and were were driving the Alcan Hiway in a 1952 Chey Sedan. Dad ended up in a ditch that night. Good thing we were caravaning with some other poor souls.

Ahhhhhhh, Fond memories of an Army Brat!

Hello EZ, You're probably getting your share of the cold stuff. Talked to my son last night. Lives in Greenville and he was looking at 1-2 inches of ice in his parking lot. Brrrr!! The story I liked was the young man who flipped his SUV on I-95. He commented, "I don't understand Officer, I was driving the speed limit!" 70???

 

[ezmoney]

Snow and ice gone now Scout. We are getting plenty of rain this weekend.

 

[ezmoney]

Well the crowd pulled out of DC last week they couldn't spend anymore of our money. However they were cramming their pockets full when they left.

Hurricane force winds today. She is a blowing something fierce. Crazy markets!
