Just spoke to my broker - old and burned out

Posted: Jan 15, 2014

and my health care portfolio is up over 60% this year. We sure know where the money isn't going don't we?

no clue what that means - too poor to have a broker

...that she spoke to her health insurance broker and her health insurance is going up.

She didn't say she was too poor to have a broker.

My stockbroker. Health care industry value (at least the companies in my portfolio) went up 60% in the last year so obviously lots of companies are making money; it's just not getting to the MTs.

must be nice. Here I am deciding if I will I want my lights or my phone - turned off this month.

Saturdays are usually the busiest day so this doesn't bode well. I guess this just gives me time to test for a company that just emailed me yesterday. There has to be something out there better than this. If my other 2 jobs had enough work for me to go full time I would do it in a heartbeat, but they, unlike this miserable excuse for a company (SoftScript), do NOT overhire so I am just thankful I have the part-time work with them. Guess tonight it is ice ...
