As far as my IRA is concerned, today is September 16, 2008. That was the day that I rolled over my old company 401k into a rollover IRA with Fidelity. The market almost immediately started taking a nosedive. Today is the day that my IRA has finally reached the value at which I purchased it. Considering that the dollar is worth less than it was worth in September 2008, I’m pretty sure that I’m still in the red here. At this rate, I might be able to retire in my mid-nineties.

we woke up to about 9 or 10 inches of snow this morning. We shoveled the driveway, but my car still wouldn’t make it on the roads, so I was stuck having to have Melanie give me a ride in the van (she was heading downtown anyways). While my Lexus is really fun to drive, it’s horrible in the snow because it’s a rear wheel drive. I probably should have thought that one through a little better.
By the time I got home this evening, we had gotten about 14 inches total. Wow!
Here are some photos:
I thought this looked kind of pretty this evening.
14 inches fell today
Melanie and David are really making progress on that driveway!
