Storm Aftermath?

Just wondering how things are looking in Gulf Shores this morning. Is the power out? Any significant damage? I’m particularly interested in the Fort Morgan area. We’ve got a week long rental starting on Friday (16th) and wondering if we will be able to make the trip. Hope everyone there is safe and dry!!

Daily Fluctuations

There’s been a lot of volatility in the markets lately, in both directions. After days like these with big swings, I’m amused to look at my daily profits or losses in my IRA’s and brokerage accounts. I used the word “amused” because on some days I’m up or down by multiples 3, 4 or even 5 times the amount of my annual salary at my first job out of college. Admittedly, that was over 45 years ago and I’m now 10 years in retirement. But I still find it funny to think about, especially since it doesn’t seem to bother or excite me more than it does. I don’t think I could have imagined this when I took that first job, feeling at the time that I had finally made it to a big time salary.
