OK, 16, I am putting those composite posts on my list with the birthday candles I'm thinking about investing in. And as a hedge against the risk, maybe a few forever stamps. If we work at this, maybe we can start the TOTV

Mutual Fund. KMB is paying a nice little dividend of 4.20% right now, so that one might be worth looking into -- but I guess it depends.

Hi batman,
About that 70 and 1/2 mark.....I guess we have a few years to think about it. But if I had to take a guess right now about any big market impact, I would guess that boomers confident in the market at that point would have (should have) positioned themselves with a cash moat around their stocks so they would not have to sell stock to pay taxes.
But that's just a thought. I sure don't claim to have any insight, just an interest in market stuff.
And I still feel like the rules have changed forever. Anything can happen.
Hey! Wasn't that one of the days on the
Mickey Mouse Club that the early boomers rushed home from elementary school to watch --
Anything Can Happen Day. Who knew The Mouse Himself was preparing the boomers for the stock market.
