Wait, wait...

If I'm bashing the financial services company involved, I also ought to bash D...

cause three weeks ago I went through and researched and found the company I wanted this money to go to, and then I researched some more to figure out exactly what two funds at said company I wanted this money to go to...

and I considered our other investments and analyzed risk and pondered asset allocation, blah, blah, blah...

and I told D - these are the two funds, at the one company, that I think we should put this money into, and he was all like - "That doesn't sound very good to me, e-mail me all the info and I'll let you know what I think we should invest in."

And besides the obvious that the boy should just listen to what I say, I figured, whatever, we wants to feel involved, he's actually interested in a monetary decision I should run with this! Except it wasn't until TODAY that he finally decided to read what I had sent over, check the links, and make his Pronouncement!

Which was that he thought we should do exactly what I said in the first place.


Note - between last week and this week (including the lovely jump today)... between the time we could have invested the money if he had read the info when I originally sent it and now... the S&P 500 has gone up over 9%.

Be this a lesson to all of you, whether you're one of my financial services companys' reps, or my husband -

DO WHAT I SAY. I AM RIGHT. ALWAYS.
