It's a classic thread... And it's all I got left in my Paypal account...
Sounds like a cool way to start off this TTalk2 thing... 8-)

Fun is cool!

I do not know.
I like all kinds of snow. The only poor snow I know of is ice. That better be climbed.

I wonder how much interest this has accrued...

An economics professor told his students, "Before you can draw interest, you must first have principal."

A voice from the back spoke up with, "Actually, girls without principles draw considerable interest!"

Given the financial shenanigans/repression, interest rates were manipulated so low that money mkt funds were paying next to nothing during this span. You could have gotten at least some yield with FedNOW the past year or so but that's after 8 years of nothing (I think JPM was giving 0.1%).

As for the girls, true, but that's a shame. And it's always been the case, but not to this degree. But maybe I am a crotchety old man at 42 with morals, and an anachronism.
