Correction: $9500.00 of YOUR money.
I'm currently not in DGIV.
Uh oh. This may throw a kink in the plans Monday. Seems I took for granted that you still owned some shares of DGIV. The DGIV Stewardess Handbook (which I follow without deviation), under "Birthday Celebrations" has firm rules & guidelines that must be followed. An excerpt from said handbook:
1) Absolutely no singing from DGIVer's for non DGIV investors on the annual roll around of their date of birth.
2) While birthdays should be recognized with full fanfare (singing, dancing, gifts, kisses, hugs, words of praise), a bare minimum of fanfare shall be used in cases of non DGIV investors.
3) Exception: Should the birthday be for a beloved (not to be confused with merely "frequent")thread poster that has for some misguided reason failed to invest in DGIV, then a mention should be made, but use good judgement as to separate the devoted investor from merely the frequent poster.
Note:Consult Glossary in back if you aren't sure of the difference in "beloved" and "merely frequent".
4) Should the birthday be for a person who is neither a DGIV investor or beloved poster, extreme caution should be exercised where birthday celebrations are concerned. Avoid at all costs putting your position as "Birthday Hostess" in danger by overdoing celebrations in these situations.
It goes on and on with sub categories and sub sub categories, but if I put all of that here, it would take too much space, and would jeopardize my position because of "overshare".
Hummm....I guess I'll have to take it to the panel to decide if you fall into the #3 situation. OR...to hedge all bets, (and knowing how badly you desire for the DGIVers to sing to you on Monday, the day you reach a quarter of a century old), perhaps you should stick your toe back in and invest in DGIV! You know you want to! <gg>
Thanks for warning me, and possibly saving my position as BD Hostess!
LCDR. E!, DGIV Birthday Hostess...putting Monday's celebration on hold for further study. |
