JSH — Good for you. Too late for me. If I'd done a same day sale of my Symantec stock (when they cut me loose) for Apple stock and held it for ten years, I'd have a different result today.

I agree being on SS isn't being a child of God, but thankfully it was mandatory. I ran behind most of my working career, and didn't shift my attitudes to take advantage of the opportunities (IRAs, etc.).

OTOH I was living in a geodesic dome then and I have a collectible 'Airstream' tiny house now, so... no complaint. I'm just happy to be here.
