Loss of a chance at a gain, but at least it isn't a real loss.

Betting Monday is up. Took 1/3 of a position in XIV with JTrader about 15 minutes ago. Already up almost 1%.

So far F fund was the correct choice. I fund, not so much.

Went 1/2 TNA 1/2 XIV mid-day. Nice gains but waiting to see what Monday brings.

Kind of a snoozer so far huh? XIV is up a bit though. Can't argue with that.

Man we got some steady upward action pretty much the minute after I said today was boring. Ended up selling XIV afterhours @ 24.14 for about 4%. Too bad I didn't take a larger position. But that leaves me plenty of buying power for tomorrow if I need it.

New post from this weekend up @ the blog. Talks about the power of DRIP in the long haul. Specifically with a high yielding REIT index like "REM".

Wow, posting is so much more difficult when my dog wants to bite my hands. She's still learning the "Go See Mommy!" command.

Ordering a new air intake today. My first under-the-hood car modification. Should be a fun learning experience. Lookin at a possible addition of 3-6hp, 1-3mpg, better throttle response time and a cleaner look! Probably "try" to put it in this weekend if it ships in time.

My '04 Pontiac Grand Prix GT was falling apart so I traded in for a 2012 Lancer ES. Bought it New off the lot 2 months ago sitting next to all the new '13s so I got a huge discount. It gets great gas milage but man there's pretty much no power. So I'm looking at ways to add a bit. After the intake I might change the crank pulley. Starting with the easier mods cuz I'm a newbie at this stuff.

I was hoping it would be more of a "growl" that I would enjoy. And is it only when I hit the higher RPMs or all the time?
