Only one more week

One week from now I will be en route to Key West on a much needed vacation. As you can assume by my lazy lack of posts this week, it was a pretty busy week. Finally got my windshield fixed from Wilma, but the treadmill broke. Had a busy few days on Thurday and Friday, but didn't make much money. Just one of those odd weeks I guess. At least the market is doing better and my client statements should look better in November than they have the last two months. It's funny being a financial advisor because you NEVER hear from your clients when they are making money, but they all call when there is a bad month or two wanting to know "whats wrong". It can be quite maddening if you let it get to you. A word of advice to everyone out there who invests in the stock market...sometimes it goes down. Like life, every day/week/year isn't always perfect. If you can't deal with it, buy FDIC insured CDs and get your 4% return per year. I'll average 8-10% and be happy.

Sorry about that....had some pent-up rage about this week. Pimpbling and Gunther know what I'm talking about here, right gentlemen? Outside of that, I am planning on having a relaxing weekend...watching some football and doing some yard work. I'm also going to Brian's daughter Isabella's baptism tomorrow. She is almost a year old and I still haven't seen her....I think it's time.

sorry I missed this post, I have been out on a ledge all week after dealing with the comments...then I realized...I live in a one story house, and my office is on the 1st flor...so jumping wouldnt accomplish anything...so yes those calls are maddening!!! But how else can we make the big bucks we do....oh wait we dont do that either...hmmm maybe this is a time to sit and reflect about life...So K delish...how is it w/ no responsibilty or clients call ing...???


disclaimer...I was not really out on a ledge in the past nor do I intend to in the future...however past performance is no guarantee of future results
