I awoke this morning

from a dream. I was in uniform, shiny black shoes and white pants, a blue uniform jacket and white hat. I was walking past caskets of the war dead but couldn't look at them as they represent the loss of real people and the loss was to real, to close.

So now I am awake and one of the first things that crossed my mind was "If I was twice the man I am,  would I still be only half the man I should be?"

Thanks to all who have served our country and helped to keep me safe and tears for all of you and your families if it didn't turn out for all the best. 

And now, once again, there is a tear in my eye.

Status of 401k

These are the same charts just using a different point of time.
They show my 401k funds and the percentage performance of each fund in relation to that point in time. One is a negative outlook and the other a positive.

Citi 401k 9-2007 to Present

In August 2007 the Citi 401k plan was expanded to include new funds. Attached are links to downloads of a both Power Point Show and Pdf that illustrates the changes in the net asset value, by percent, of those funds in relation to a base of 8-31 or 9-1-2007. Both show the same information. Neither are now autoplay but screens change based on your action.
