Greetings my fellow Fools, been awhile since I did a blog not involving TheFoxForceFiveContest. (Which has been way cool, much obliged to all the participants.) But I think I actually have something to say, so here goes nothin'-

Most of you know that I'm not a wealthy man, but aspire to become one someday . So when I invest it is with small amounts. I'm constantly dollar cost averaging and reinvesting my divid...

What up, my fellow Fools.

Recently I had to make a difficult decision, to sell the BUD shares that I bought from 08-09 or hold.

Greetings and salutations.

Hey Fellow Fools, I was hoping someone knew Chris's current E-mail address, if so please forward this message. I have the now defunct BloggerZoo e-mail-----

Hi Chris, I hope all is well with you. Things have been good on my front, been very busy at work and thats my leading economic indicator.

TMF kind of bogarted your idea with this-

What's better for you a happy meal, or an Apple?

Hello fellow Fools,

I hope everyone is enjoying Mothers day. We had a nice brunch followed up by frisbee in the backyard. But thats not why I'm writing this blog.

I'm writing this because I gave my niece and nephew a homework assignment-

What would happen if you paid no income tax?

Pesonally I'd be sitting pretty on my meager earnings.

How would that effect the rest of you, and do you think it's a good idea or bad?

Cheers-

HarryCarysGhost — Wed, 07 Mar 2012 22:01:46 GMT

Hi There.

I was wondering if my fellow Fools would be willing to pontificate on some concepts that have been running through my head recentely?

A- All living things are composed of units of energy.

B- Energy cannot be destroyed, only move forward.

C- Where said energy winds up...?

Do you like to collect stuff?

HarryCarysGhost — Sat, 11 Feb 2012 20:33:18 GMT

And no I don't mean like this-

Just in general, do you enjoy collecting things that will make you money in the future?

Oscar is my loyal Shih Tzu, he called the housing crisis, before that his Father called the dot com bubble. And now he's calling for a European debt crisis.
