Cards = Investments

[drmondobueno]

Started buying cards again in 2012 when my money market started paying 0.15%. Figured there would be a way to liquidate if I need to but would be a big enough pain to do so that finding alternative funds would be simpler. Close to retirement age so accessing 401k's are in the cards, so to speak. Figure to have the cards until I kick. Have a few liquidation options for my spouse, if she chooses, in my will. I guess I am planning to wait and see values 15 to 20 years out.

I am actually going back to work next month after being retired for the last 5 years ( sounds better than unemployed) besides building bamboo rods. Kind of a nice way to live after 40 years in the L A ashtray. Never would have thought I would have the opportunity or the means to collect the Monster. Nice way to spend the winter so far...great group of people, too.
