Vanguard came thru!

November 24th, 2014 at 08:45 pm

My first check from my Vanguard IRA account was deposited into my checking account today. I asked for my withdrawals to start on the 20th of each month, but I guess they do not process checks on the weekend.
What do you think I am going to do with my first check? (It's $1000) If you know me well, you will probably guess that I am going to save it. Yes, it is going into another one of my mutual funds, actually more than one. Mutual funds are returning a pretty good rate of interest right now, much more than banks.

Today would have been my daughter's 45th birthday. She died in 2013. I remember how excited I was when they called me on my birthday, to say she was on the way. She was born at 2 a.m. the next morning. (She was adopted at birth)

It is a beautiful day today and I am very thankful.

    I'm so sorry about the loss of your daughter. Frown Did you travel far to pick her up? My adoptive parents traveled from Healdsburg, CA to Palm Springs, CA to pick me up from the hospital 3 days after my birth.

    No, she was born in the same county that I lived in. The lawyer and his secretary brought her home to me on Thanksgiving day, when she was 3 days old.
