[QUOTE="Benben, post: 1111037, member: 25133"] [b]Re: UPS/Teamster 401k...Prudential to a Dreyfus self managed account...+22.86% for 20[/b] Wichita State.....we were surprised 3 Kansas teams got into the dance. But anyone from Kansas knows, in the fall its all about K-State. Come March the world revolves around the Jayhawks. I'll date myself here but my freshman year I was there with Danning Manning and the Miracles. The Frat house drained 30 kegs, I still remember running up the hill with the last of a Stroh's 30 pack and I actually handed a beer to a cop and he looked at me like, "really?" I didnt get busted....at least not for the beer that year. That year KU had the longest home winning streak in the nation. Duke came in and beat us. OU made Allen Field House their home away from home (beat us 3 times that year) and then K-state beat us. Tournament time: Great 8, KU KO'd K-state. Final 4- KU dunked Duke. Championship game-we outlasted OU. .....yes I have had a few drinks. The Self vs. Williams story really needs to be the highlight this year. We'll see. I'd love to see Brown there giving his 2 cents. Joy Global.....low divi. I am still not in a possition to speculate much. Started broker account in Aug with $1700. Merrill Edge account is now at $4.9K and change. I'll get there, but divi's are my life blood. Currently I have $150 in cash in the ME account. Influx of divi's next month, and hopefully a spin-off. UPstate, again I understand the point you are making, "a'lotta work for $11." But my point of view is, "a'lotta work now, a'lotta play later." I have no desire to pay some putz to run another retirement account or make "educated" investement guess's. Thats why this thread is important to me, bouncing ideas of someone else. I refuse to accept only a 4% yearly investment gain, less fees when I think upser's can do so much better becuase we are not as dumb as many tend to think we are. We just need to share information.
