We are a family of three in transition. We spent years being frugal and are now at a crossroad. We'd like to retire from our day jobs in two years or less. Our retirement goals are to provide our daughter with the best education she desires; travel; and find new careers - perhaps part-time that we really enjoy. I hope to post both "frugal" and "personal finance" information. NOTE: I am not a professional on either subject. My posts are purely entertainment :)

4/28 Expressions
The only excitement in the mail was a DVD set from cashing in some Pepsi Stuff points. The other excitment is, my daugher owns just over 2 shares of Wrigley's stock. I think I purchased it through "Sharebuilders" a couple of years ago because I read they sent a box of gum to shareholders. I thought that would be exciting for her - and a box of gum every year, a good return for a few shares of stock. We never got a box of gum from Wrigley's - perhaps Sharebuilders did? Anyway, since the merger with Mars Candy was announced - my daughter is $14.XX a share richer today :) You think Mars will send a box of candy? I am sure it would make investing in stocks much more exciting for her.
