You missed my point, but that's OK.

I know she meant well, but I'm tired of hearing it. I asked my mom in my latest email if she trusts her pastor and his boss more than me. That should clear it up one way or the other. :)

Well, I will thank YOU when I ask you what I should do with my money....right now it is in annuities, and stocks (75%) and bonds (25%)....but of course if the stock market tanks.....so do I. :(

Thank you. :D I have the same asset allocation. It is somewhat risky for both our age, but these are strange times. I'm not a fan of annuities though, high expenses. I have part of mom's money in a mutual fund managed like an annuity without the insurance aspect of it. We'll see how that works.

not a worry, I have some who think its a handout some who know its what they put in, and too many who take what is not theirs.
My hard question is why before Romney care did the us tax payers pay more for universal health care per person(cap) than Canada when we did not have it?

Its painful to here that it cost 124,000 to house a inmate for a year in nyc, when the public knows throwning a bum in an 8 by 8 a sandwich cost 10,000

Oh boy, healthcare, another big issue!!! I can only handle one big topic at a time. :laugh:

that works for me.

One must find one's own paradigm.:)

Thanks. :)

You know I would never force my beliefs on you. :wub:

Now can we not get into this subject please. :)

I know and thank you. You started it asking about my mom again. :p

BAHAHAHAHA! Jag knows what is it, don't you?

Huh??? Mining for gold? I flunk my alchemy class, teach. :D

One of my annuities has a guaranteed rate of 4.5% (taken out several years ago) and has done really well. and the other was a fixed annuity taken out 25 years ago, and it has done well also, I wanted a safe investment because I had children, and I did not want to play around with their college funds. Neither has any insurance involved, just straight annuities.
