Wall Street Breakfast: Must-Know News

Bull market, bear market - just silly terms for THE market. There's always something worth buying - and KEEPING. A dividend is another paycheck - one you didn't have to work for! Buy right and pick carefully, diversify, ignore CRAMER - buy more shares when they're down - increase the size of your extra "paychecks" and to heck with the know-it-alls who want to tell you it's stupid. I don't feel "stupid" 32 times a year when I cash my dividend checks! Wnat to "beat the market?" Why? How large a number makes up the multitude of people trying to do that? Think you're that smart? Maybe you're clairvoyant. I doubt it. Competing with the market is a fool's game. Have fun. Me, I'd rather make money.

Wall Street Breakfast: Must-Know News

HAHAHA Sorry to intrude on all the pessimism. MY economy's just fine. I live in an area of SW Missouri where it seems like no one wants to work. Place I work at needs help and doesn't even have any applicants for the jobs. Oh well guess I'll just keep getting all the hours; I worked 68 hours last week. Too many people here drawing pensions or living off the government. That's OK, lazy bums are making me rich. I've sunk $2500 into dividend-paying utilities in the last month and a half. I'm just a restaurant cook and I'm happier than most of you.
