Re: Rep Retirement Lodge 120: How do you want to die?

Good morning. Too dam busy this past week......but now it's calm in DayOfVacationville. Dropped the youngest at Cretin-Derham Hall for her 9th grade orientation which can only mean one thing: Copper Dome for breakfast! :)

Ha. Didn't even read the pole until I saw the pole sux comment!!! Just did the mass democrat thing and clicked the party line (fab freddy).

Should listed options from the wonderful Smiths song. "and if a double decker bus, crashes into us, to die by your side, is such a heavenly way to die...". I love singing that acapella one the street and having peoe stare at me! :p

This reminds me, I need to get my afternoon Monster into the fridge.

An egg mcmuffin would taste amazing right now.

I wish they would sell them all day, Mickey D's Breakfest stuff is much better than their regular menu items. :D

I sold a big chunk of stock last week to get some $$$ for the downpayment on the house. Since I sold it, the stock has gone down $9/share. Now that is what I call good timing. :p

Is this a taxable brokerage account, a 401k (from which you are borrowing money), or a Roth IRA ($10k max withdrawal for first time house purchase)?

Hello, Lodge. Quiet day here as I have the day off. Planning to do some laundry, dishes, catch up on tv, upload some photos of the new Hit, and decide what dessert to make for a party this weekend.

Straight up stock that I have purchased outside of any retirement plan. I get company stock at 15% below market price, so I use a piece of each paycheck to buy some stock.

Is there any limit on the amount you can purchase or when you can sell it?

If not, I'd like to purchase thousands of dollars of shares through you and resell it immediately each month to make myself a tidy 15% return on the investment. We can split the guaranteed 15% profit 50/50.

I can only put 20% of each check towards stock purchases and if I liquidate the account, I have to wait 6 months before I can buy stock again. Those are the only limits.

Good lord, I wish I had access to that. I'd be buying the max each pay period and instantly selling all but one share to dodge the liquidation / 6 month wait time limitation.

I do the same thing. After 13 -14 years or so at mother mining most of the stock I had purchased went toward the palatial Greyeagle Summer Retreat. :D What's amazing is now after 20 years at mother mining I'm almost back to where I was pre-cabin.

Hi Lodge


Quick drive by to relate my recent experience at the drive through

If you're hearing impaired and unable to speak, is the drive through at McDonald's your best choice? I was the only one there at the time. A car went straight through the other drive through lane and stopped at the first window. I assumed they had something wrong with their order. Nope. They didn't even use a note. They just signed and gestured their way through the whole process. The poor kid at the first window was absolutely a saint, and got their order in and accepted their payment, which was mostly in change, these people were very old, and got them to the second window. When I got to the first window I paid and the kid was very apologetic toward my wait, yet sympathetic to the elderly patrons ahead of me. "Good on him" I thought, not being in a hurry. Unfortunately I was the only one in that long growing line that didn't have a time crunch. The kid at the second window was easily rattled, and he was a puddle. "Something" was amiss on their order and he didn't have a clue what to do. Again, I had a front (back?) row seat to this debacle and was curious how this was going to play out. I started doing the math and calculated I had been in the drive through line about 16 minutes so far. Horns were honking like crazy and people were obviously getting very impatient. FINALLY the elderly couple gets their order and pulls away. I pull up to the window and see no less than ten bags and twice as many beverages piled up. The kid in this window asks me if I remember what I ordered. I said "doesn't matter, it better be free now". His face blanched :D . I said "kidding" and told him what I paid for. He thanked me and gave me a free chocolate shake :)

When I used to work at DQ back in HS, we had a guy who was deaf that would come in all the time. Really nice guy. Always had a piece of paper with his order.

He was also an expert lip reader. So that helped a lot.

As the temp continues to approach triple digits here in Denver, I am pleased to report my wife and I are mountain-bound in a minute's time. Have a good weekend folks. :)
