Sold all of my stocks in the last year and a half. Put the cash in a Money Market account tied to the rate of inflation. Had to pay some capital gains, but still came out way ahead.
When the Dems get back in I’ll try to figure out some winners. I did that last time and bought a bunch of Ford stock and made a killing when it came back.
I’m old and both the wife and I are retired. Not worried about making a bunch, just thinking about enjoying some travel.
Have no interest payments and right now my interest can pay all of my bills so we can afford it.
