    grandma,

    It would appear you made an excellent decision Saturday. Get ready to make some money in this rally - you should now have a good profit in the making - would humbly suggest you IFT out of the 5%F and put that to work in the S fund. Use the rest of your G fund to dollar cost average into the S fund on the way up. It's easy - just set a time frame and don't worry about the incidentals. Buying on the way up is the most fun because you are locking in profit as you move forward. When to get out will be your most difficult decision - for me I'm on the ride all the way up - I won't worry about any temporary corrections until I see over the mountain.

    The problem is - & I am reluctant to confess this, I moved the 5% oo my G, which was already paying .46 cents more than the F where I placed it...:h

    My eS is still intact - (careful, now ---- :x!! )

    That was why I was hoping someone would check it out before they read the information at the beginning. It was too late for me - I was already....
