HJM,re:"TXN...$22.75". Boy, you'll be so rich. Didn't you buy 'MSFT...$42" couple of days ago? Man, you're on a roll. "I need the money". Instead of chasing for 'never enough money' (and not smart enough to do so), my wife and I think we have to retire either in Thailand or Taiwan(if the RED ONE not going to erase it on earth) where we still can afford. This country has too much insurance, tax for the wage-earner type. The real-estate people also scared us and we cannot bear the pressure of getting those 'bag-holder-mortgage' ( big mortgage, low(no) interest ) on fear of having to pay the BIG principle at the wrong time. Someone on some thread alerting us on '$300/yr engineer', that really worry me. Without the 'day-trading' skill and management caliber, it would not be wise to take on a 'big-mortgage'. Just reserve those for the elite, the chosen.
