This morning I saw a clip from a show yesterday where the Mad Money host Jim Cramer basically told everyone to get out of the market right now. I don’t know if he meant everything period or just certain things. It’s a golden rule to never touch your 401k. Ever. Period. Ever. (well, ok, if [...]

Over the weekend something terrible happened. Actually it proabably happened during the day Friday. Our stereo receiver went out. I mean, bam, stopped working all of a sudden. This is downstairs on the big TV, the home theater, the XBox system, etc. It was about 4 years old. They just don’t make them like they [...]
