Hi Gang, What a crazy week it was last week, lots of things happening at the credit union that I have to tend to as well as a f#$%up on my part trying to install new receipt printer and the documentation had a typo in it, saying use version 4.5.7 but the only ones I could find at Epson's web site were 4.5.6 and 4.5.9 so I went with the 4.5.9. Wrong, wrong, WRONG! turns out that it was not for the TM U220B, but the, I think, the TM U220D and we got the B as it has an Ethernet connection. Even Epson's help desk could not help me fix it.
And then I discovered that TD Ameritrade's Positions web page had the wrong prices for the original and subsequent purchases/sales. Out of 9 positions in the trust 7 of them were wrong compared to Gainskeeper, which is the "Master" price that everything is figured against. Calling them about the errors, some of them as much as $4/share, was a total mess. Ugh. And one that talked with said that another help person had sent an e-mail to the ones who were responsible but never got it fixed. Double Ugh! We'll see what happens in a few days. If they don't fix it I might move to
But the good news was that income, dividends and mo9ney earned in trades but not position value, was just over 11% for the year and would have been just under 13% had not one of the positions that was inherited from my mother went bankrupt. Not a huge loss but not trivial either. I had held onto it rather than selling it for a 50+% loss, figuring it was a bull market, don't be impatient. Oh, well.
