We must deal with what is not what should be. The CPI consumer price index is now 6.2% we pay that with after tax money so I need to make over 8% to be even. The stock market? I am up roughly 30% for the year. No I do not approve of what is going on.

I'm no cockeyed optimist but we have a choice. You can look at your lawn and see the weeds or you can see the flowers.

HAPPY THANKSGIVING TO ALL.
