FMJ - Day 974
November 29: We found two pennies while shopping at the Mervyn's during their "Going Out of Business" sale. Ajay got a pair of Van's shoes for $20! Good deal... Sad to see Mervyn's close forever, though. Seems all the small regional retailers are going the way of the dinosaur.

November 27: Thanksgiving was a surprise... My wife's aunt whose a vegetarian cooked a delicious Turkey this year as her son, who usually handles the turkey, and his wife welcomed their first child, Gianna, into our world only ten days ago. Needless to say, he was too busy to do the turkey honors this year. Maybe next?

A late at night run to the Von's down the street for some ATM cash and dog food allowed us to find a One Euro coin and a dime near the coin counting machine. (That single Euro coin is worth $1.25 in our money. We save all our foreign coin finds to be converted in the future and will add the U.S. Money we received for them at that time.)

Hey, Pres. Obama, DON'T MESS WITH 401K!
Well, I hope all you OBAMA supporter get your most perfect slice of the pie. Some of OBAMA's backers are out promoting the confiscation of our 401K plans because they obviously think that the government would be better at making decisions with our retirement funds than any individual person could do for themselves. I've got a messages for these people -- DON'T YOU DARE TOUCH MY RETIREMENT PLAN... IT'LL BE ALL OUT WAR! IT'S MY MONEY -- NOT YOURS! LEAVE IT ALONE!

*Decrease from Prior Month: ($615.45)
* This was the worst month for stocks in decades. The current pricing represent a good buying opportunity. Although, we had a terrible month of loss... I think it will be short lived and will see higher prices in the coming months. Bottles and cans recycling has been increasing of late and we should add more funds in future month for investment.
