Invest

Feeling very satisfied with this goal. I have slightly diversified and talked seriously about this with my boyfriend, who works in financial planning/life insurance/etc. I’m also going to treat my investment amounts as a bill each month!

I’m glad I waited until the inauguration! I knew yesterday would drag the markets down. I have to optimistic about the markets going back up because what else can I do? I’m ready to invest!

The markets right now are not stable enough for me to put my money in them. I will wait until 2009 for this, after Obama is in office and see what happens. I’m not too optimistic though since the government keeps messing with everything. Bailouts = bad!

I finally set-up direct deposit for my paycheck at work! I have no idea what took me so long. While this isn’t investing, it is a start to getting in touch with my money.
