Thank you all for your concern and advise. I have no plans to touch the money from the sale of my house – it is in CD’s probably until I am able to purchase when housing reaches a price I consider affordable (2yrs? 5 yrs? who knows?).
Just want to learn more about the stock market and investing. I have seen suggestions on Piggington before of books that are recommended for the novice to expand our knowledge, but didn’t make note of them at the time. I am extremely conservative, and analytical, so my desire to learn is for my knowledge and comfort, not to become a trader on my own.
I have looked as some of the links above, and have found answers to some of my questions already. Thanks again.
This may be a subject for a separate forum topic, but what do you financially savvy folks do with your profits to avoid the taxes? I have some stock options from my employer that I am seriously considering cashing in (as the possibility of the stock market receeding are so high), but hate the thought of the huge tax chunk I will have to pay in a year where I don’t have many other write offs (sold house in March in another state, decided to rent for a year in San Diego to watch what the housing market does). Any suggestions?
