Opening Stuff:

Warning, something is drastically wrong with the battery, not mine. but the laptop. It is plugged in but still draining. Yikes. I was going to put my finger in the socket like the little Dutch boy, but that hurts. This could end dramatically at any minute.

 

I  think some of the Dow stocks are becoming part of a generational dichotomy where, in stocks like Coke or Micky D, the older generation want the dividends and the younger people are looking for so-called healthier food sapping the growth out of these former stalwarts. In stocks other stocks like IBM, the retirees find it hard to let go of this almighty company that is losing its way to the cloud crowd, and is facing a dilemma faced by many companies of today, you don’t need a lot pf people to sell the simple stuff easily bought on line. Again, growth opportunities are disappearing leaving portfolio reliant people formerly content with slow growth and constant dividend income seeing declining growth and lower stock prices…and a potential sinking portfolio over time.

 

The Question:

In what TV sow did Jeff Goldbloom first get noticed?.

 

The Headliness:

--Stock Market rebounds nicely.

--Ben Bradley Dies.

--Same ole. Same ole’.

 

A reader who is in everyday life an all consuming devourer of anything written, especially promotion form the government ,delved deep into the new 2015 Medicare prospective. He suggested we all read the bottom of page 12 where the pricing for the new policies are discussed: It states that the premium and deductible amounts were not available at the time of printing”.(?) It gives an 800-633-4227 number to call. He did. The representative said they “probably would not have those numbers until the en of the first week, possibly the second week of Nov ember>” Our reaer sleuth replied, “My, isn’t that convenient for the Obama administration to actually hold off on those figures until after the 2014 election results are in?” There was silence. Worrued yet?

 

Uh-Oh -- I’m faiLING RAPIDLY! This could d be it….O yeah, Goldbloom first became a name in “Tenspeed and Brownshoes”.

 

I feel like the little engine that could, except I’m huffing an dpuffing an can’t control my destiny.

 

Yikes!
