Ha ha ha ha you crack me up Jim go ahead get her a puppy LOL :D

Or a kitten. I like kittens better than puppies, when they grow up they are much more self sufficient. They don't require going outside and rolling in the dirt, you can leave some water, food and a box and not return for days and they will be fine. Dogs, not so much. And dogs you gotta give a bath, cats are clean.

Nah - i'll get her a puppy app for her phone - when that bugger wakes her up at 3am wanting to be fed....hahaha!

Yeah, that is a good idea! Dog got a habit of waking up DH at 03:11 every morning. So now she either stays outside or if I am still up I just close the bedroom door so she won't wake him anymore. He gets up early as it is, and her timing is a half hour off :lol:

I have Ameritrade, Fidelity and Etrade, and the California tax exempt bond fund from Vanguard because the fees are low and it is non-taxable income to us here in Cali. They have proprietary apps for the phone, but they are free. The app that I use to consolidate all my positions into one that tracks the movement throughout the day is free also but isn't affiliated with any brokerage. Are you using "think or swim?"

I was thinking about LO for BT, they had a nice quarter report and their e-cigs contributed a lot to that. Since I was forced into early retirement, I have had to self teach myself to make my money elsewhere, and am not as advanced on you with the puts. I do a few baby options just to supplement a little bit, and so far so good but I am not very confident in my ability. I am more of an investor than trader. I have the margin to do it, but am very wary. DH uses Scottrade, but since I already had the others didn't see the point. I think optionshouse has less fees for trading right?



Her 20th show was great, wasn't that last week or so? I didn't start the CNBC watching until 2011 when I was stuck at home. I start the DVR with Squawk on the Street, then Street Signs and Closing Bell. I can watch all 6 hours pretty fast that way, especially when a certain politican takes too much time, I can just fast forward through the nonsense and get to the analysis of what he said that generally crashes the market :lol:

Good Morning REOville!

I am feeling a bit better today, I am still body achy but the throat and head are less so. I never did have a fever, just felt like it. Trying not to sneeze and cough is tough, but I learned if I do my nose will start bleeding again. At least I got a lot of rest yesterday.

I hope everyone else is feeling fantastic and staying safe!

thinkorswim is too frustrating. most of it's "documentation" is in videos which i don't have the patience for. i don't do many spreads-- mostly just puts and calls, so the web interface works good enough.

optionshouse has low fees for stocks and especially options. so far this month i've done 70 trades in that account. the fees for any of the other brokerages would have been prohibitive for a lot of those trades. most of the trades are in weekly options and often the profit goal can be as little as $100.

for an investor (not so much a trader), one of the best sources of info is a site called Seeking Alpha. i read a lot there every day for the "investor" part of my portfolio.

glad you're starting to feel better!
