Re: I am probably on the opposite side as you when it comes to politics, I don't find what you say as offensive. Please stay. If it gets out of hand, I trust Chowder will take care of it. Thank you.

I know I'm on the opposite side but I get where the frustration comes from those opposite of my views. I don't take it personally, I just move on. I wish others would as well, but if anyone has a disagreement with someone, SI allows private messaging, I suggest it gets used. It's one advantage SI has over SA.

I have every intention of lifting the ban on SQ, but as he suggested, he needs a break. I'll honor that request.

I'm checking in late and missed the food fight. Wow, I agree with Don01022...I saw the word political and I just skipped over the posts and the reply's....I just threw up the deflector shields, made it thru the asteroid field, and everything was all good.

Now, on to investing related things. It was end of the month dividend day so I chose a few CEFs to add to. BOE, ETB, EVT, BME, UTF, and yeah I opened a starter position in ERH, violating my "it needs to have a half billion of NAV". But I did keep the initial position small, and if it continues to grow, I'll add more.
