Re: Budget Be Damned

Yeah, probably not gonna scoop up CFP Francs, Fijian dollars, and Vatus as a hedge. Just gotta hide those US dollars somewhere when the ATM is not practical.

Re: Budget Be Damned

Seems like the AUD vs USD is now right in the middle of the highs (2:1) and lows (1:1) over the last 20 years, though.
It's interesting to consider exchange rates when planning to cruise. If one...

Re: Budget Be Damned

Re: Budget Be Damned

I don't think you really own a thread after you start it. When you originally post your 401(k) numbers, you'll get a discussion of investments. (Not sure where the farming videos fit in?)

Re: Budget Be Damned

Facebook receives compensation from its advertisers based upon customer clicks, a brand new business model just this century. Friendster, MySpace and Google+ are among many failed examples. Nobody...

Re: Budget Be Damned
