    I landed two fish in my IRA boat last week.... McCormick (MKC) and Snowflake (SNOW). Right now, my account is in dog paddle mode and is rather stagnant. I'm still above my balance threshold, but I'm not seeing any upward movement. Gains on one side of my stock/bond ladder are typically offset by...

    My weekend toy

    The new 3.50-inch blower pulley has been installed and the boost gauge is now topping 13 lbs. of boost. I'm going to need to put the Michelin Man on speed dial because flooring the truck at 50 MPH will spin the tires.... on concrete and in 70 degree air. One of these days, I'm going to have to...

I retired from AT&T in 2009 and at that point, the options weren't worth...

    I had my broker liquidate three holdings for me today. Unfortunately, two were at a loss. SalesForce (CRM), Kraft Heinz (KHC), and Molson Coors (TAP) are gone. KHC and TAP have been underperforming and dragging my portfolio down for over a year, so it was time to dump 'em. I made a really nice...

    When I left AT&T 14 years ago, I took my pension in a lump sum and combined it with my 401K, rolling both into a traditional IRA. So long as you don't spend any of it along the way, it won't count as income and there are no taxes to pay.
