Participant[quote]Obviously the insurance company will try to sell you too much but you have to consider your own personal situation e.g. if you have a working vs non-working spouse, number of children, time it takes for your family to bounce back and be ok without you etc.[/quote]Something to consider too is the level of assets you currently own. You may have enough in savings, investments, home equity, etc., that you may end up needing little or no insurance.

Participant[quote=KSMountain]Just had 2 twinkles as a parting shot. Absolutely delicious. The world is a sadder place without them.[/quote]They are not going away. The intellectual property is much too valuable; some company will acquire the rights to the Twinkie name and recipe. Even the Hostess name will likely survive. What will likely not survive are the 18500 jobs killed by this intransigent union.

ParticipantFrigging unions… the terms were very reasonable given the circumstances. Even the IBT union agreed to them, but not the bakers’ union.

ParticipantI got out of CEL yesterday. Net profit of $315 before taxes, on a ~$9.8K investment in 6 weeks time. OK ROI, but it was a kind of risky move…

ParticipantToday AGNC is down 4%, but volume is quite high. Every time the price drops, volume increases. It seems that there are people out there ready to scoop it up every time it gets cheaper. Whether today’s buyers are astute or not, only time will tell.
Also, keep in mind that shares like CEL and AGNC are by nature very volatile, esp. the latter’s price fluctuates wildly with every piece of news. The market is currently digesting what Obama’s win means for the mREIT sector.

Participant[quote=no_such_reality]I’m curious, how many have verified if your lawn guys are legally employable?[/quote]
That’s none of your business, b/c you’re not employing them. They bring their own equipment, so they act as contractors. No need to issue W2s, etc.

ParticipantCongratulations!
I don’t know about a Pig-type website for El Lay, but this site has great advice on schools, neighborhoods, etc.:
http://www.city-data.com/As for finding a rental, if you want a SFH, I suggest you go with a realtor. I think the best properties are listed on the MLS.
Welcome back, and good luck!

ParticipantI doubled down on CEL 40 seconds before market closing…

ParticipantDo you think that the documentary supports the view that the current prohibition of cocaine does more harm than good?

Hmmm… the website belongs to a candy retailer. No wonder they give such artificially short shelf lives. I’ve eaten chocolate that was 1 or 2 years old, no problem.Diego Mamani
ParticipantHow long is a Snicker’s shelf life? Can I save the candy to give away next year?
Diego Mamani
ParticipantOK, so hire your 8-year old to help run your rental business. Sounds good, if the IRS will allow it. Do you have to issue a 1099 to this “worker”?
