    I had some money in the 401K and since I was separated from the company last October, there were no more contributions to the plan... got the portfolio today that shows from Jan/20 to March/20 I lost U$2000.00... :mad:
    Why?? Because the money was sitting there...? Really pssss me off... Will roll that up to an IRA or Roth... didn't know I would lose money if I didn't do anything with it.... :angry6:

    I used to be religious about keeping the door shut at the dairy farm. I Had one fly for 3 days ,he hid so well when not driving I could not find him until I rolled down the road again and out he came.

    Ate my ankles Up

    I kept bottle of windex handy to spray on my ankles and hopefully kill the fly and installed fly paper in footwell after that episode.

    One of those salt loaded fly guns would be the ticket in the truck.

    Fell asleep in Florida yesterday afternoon with the windows down. Woke up after midnight.

    Mosquitos are just mean. They’re like that movie villain who talks to you the whole time while he beats your ###.

    I’m 100% confident that I now have malaria, or one of those other 3rd world diseases like the desire to leave 2 beat to #### cars and a couple of washer and dryers in the yard

    ####.

    Don't worry you will know malaria. One key is you can be under 4 feet of horse blankets and heat lamps and shiver like it's -30.

    I got buried in layers of skeeters as a baby about 18 months or so. I escaped my room using those old style crank out windows which was modern in the 60's but turned out to be a horrible idea for children like me. Easy out at night. Hard to get back in. So I tried door. Went to sleep there on the door mat.

    Father comes out and sees a pile of skeeters. Did not recognize me under there.

    I spent a week to 10 days in iv drugs where doctors won the battle at the blood level in my system. I tried to get records that far back and its something that does not exist very much of anymore. The papers of the time can only last so long. (Also did not have SSN until adult hood in those days)

    To this day skeeters did not bother me too much. But Im pretty sure if the right one came along I would be pretty sick soon enough. They have the skeeters like the state bird down here in Arkansas I had my windshield ruined more than once by a dinner plate sized mess after I hit them in the bottomlands in certain times of the year.

    The market shrank. As the market decreaesed in size, so did your portfolio. Now if the stock market ever goes above 30k again? So will your portfolio increase.

    Yes angels share. Evaporating money. (From distilling, Evaporating spirits)

    Or in this case the "Devils Cut" he he. /bad pun.

    Markets hold about 44 trillions in pensions which turned out to have no clothes on the emperor so they are in a bigger trouble right now than the ordinary 401 holdings which is about 16 trillion give or take for everyone.
