Frank and all,

On this Thanksgiving eve I would like to add my thanks and appreciation to everyone on this thread.

When I found this group I had set a ten year plan that, if successful, would ultimately result in the funds necessary to retire with some degree of security. Unfortunately, I was struggling and clearly was going to have trouble hitting my 1999 goal of 30% growth. I was doing a lot of trading and chasing momentum deals- and more often than not being on the road when the momentum turned.

As a result of GG and the input and support of the people on this thread I set a new strategy, reestablished goals and am right now $2,000 from hitting my new goal. Originally, this was my target for 2005.

Assuming the market does not tank in the next few days my wife and I will have quite a celebration Saturday evening. I have not done as well as LindyBill but I'm not complaining.

We have much to be thankful for in this country. Whether it is people like Unclewest serving in the military for 20 years or Mike Buckley who offers help and support- or Frank who manages this group we should all take a minute to appreciate who and what we have all found on this thread. GGaming has given us all the chance to truly be financially secure and independent.

Sorry for the sappiness.

Thanks again to all. Happy Thanksgiving.

Len

Hello Uncle FranQ,

Many, many thanks to you and the thread for this great year. It would not have been so great without you. I am already at my in-laws for the holiday and want to wish everyone a Happy and healthy Thanksgiving. Look forward to a prosperous future with each and everyone of you.
