100% G fund cob 12-29-05. The I-fund had a 52 week high yesterday. I hope the markets surge between now and the closing bell. I expect the C & S funds to drop in the next 2 to 3 weeks. The I-fund is too unpredictablefor me, but it always good to sell on a high. I will get back into stocks in the middle to latter part of January.

70%G; 10%C; 10%S; 10%I;.COB 2-2-2006. Looks like today is a good day to get out of the F fund, yes I hear you, any day is a good day to get out of the F fund. I was trying to recover my losses. I hope today is just a dip in the stock markets and not the start of a bear market. Overall the economy is good, the I fund will pass $19 this year but as volatile as it is it may dip back to $18 before it hits $19. That’s just my opinion, don’t follow me because I am in the red, I’m just giving everyone else a head start.
You need to become ONE... with your BOG waders.
If you're really content with sitting on the ledge of the BOG in a "G-Chair," make sure your have allot of icy cold ones in the cooler. This March could get very entertaining.
IT'S GAME TIME BABY!
WHOOOOOOOOO!
My friend, I've been sitting in this I-Bog mud pit for all of February. Yes... it rattles your nerves, and fluctuates a bit from day to day. But low and behold, it's just a 1/2 point from breaking even as of yesterday. I think this March is going to be a good month for the BOG. I got my armpit waders in the back of the truck; just in case.Gilligan said:

Birchy,
I like to make money too, but I hate losing money. Back in August of 98 I was in your neck of the woods (100% C-fund) and I lost about $800, of course I didnt sell but stayed in and made my money back before the end of 98. I will be back in the C when it goes on sale. I am watching for it to dip down below $13.75.

Fivetears,
We haven't had enough rain here to go bogging. The G is my safety net when I think the markets could fall. I know the 4.5% interest is barely enough to keep up with inflation. The C,S,I are near their 52 week highs and they might go higher but I'm going to stay in G-gear for a couple of days before I step on the clutch and move up to C-gear or I-gear. Make sure your front hubs are locked because the I-fund will hit $19.00 this year after summer driving forces oil back up and a hurricane or two sends crude back over $70.

OK Skipper,
Just please don’t take off my hat and hit me over the head with it. I don’t want you to get it muddy.
Where’s the handle on this G-Chair recliner? I’m putting one foot in the I-bog and one in the S-fund.
Don’t worry Birchtree I’m saving some for your C-Forest.
20% G; 40% S; 40% I. cob 3-7-2006

It doesn't look like that S-Fund is showing you any love yet, brother; (-2.59%) for March. Think it'll grow some arms soon? It's got some climbing to do.
Y'all get any rain yet? We had a pretty good size grass fire SSW of & very near Lackland AFB today; the smoke looked pretty bad for a while. This summer and pending water rationing is going to kill my lawn.
We even had a series of tornado watches today, to top it all off.

I bought the S at $17.02 and $17.01 so I'm only down .06-.07 cents. The S is setting at the Feb 9-14 levels. I look to sell it above $17.20. I might sell my I shares on Friday if we have another up day.
Thats not a grass fire, It's just a Texas size Bar-B-Q. Yes, we got some rain, one of my co-workers lost his patio cover in last nights storm, he does not know where it landed.

It depends on the car and the deal Tom. In 1956 a person could obtain a Chevy for $1,100 and sell that same car today for $60,000. However, I don’t recommend investing in cars, real estate has better opportunities.
