Toni: Yes, I bought GE shares back around then and got bit by the dividend cut as well. I share your pain .

Thanks for your kind words!

LOL,

I found this blog yesterday and I think it is quite good. But I have something to complain about (obviously not Mr Cheap’s fault):

I DID the GE approach back in october 2008 (400 shares at 19$) and since then the company has cut dividends by more than two thirds… so: please diversify, do not invest in only a single company.

I repeat: very good blog. You are being read from Spain

Great list – I’m thinking about selling some stuff that is lying around the home – it definitely won’t be worth what I purchased it for originally, but at least it will help create more space, reduce clutter, and add a little extra cash to put into savings.

LOL – good point! I should check first myself. I thought I’d let her use her time to figure out how to sell stuff on e*bay, but guess I will have to be the one to do that! Thanks!

Di: Often with collectibles they aren’t worth anywhere near what people think they are. It might be depressing for your mom if she tried to sell her “kewpie doll” (I don’t even know what that is) on E*Bay and found out its only worth $8.56.

Regarding the question on stamp collecting, my Mom wanted to know what she should do with her “kewpie doll” (sp) when she died – did I want it? Since there is no emotional attachment by me to her doll (she never played with it while I was growing up and some of her other things give me more memories), I suggested that since she had a better idea of how much it was worth (along with more time to deal with such issues), she sell it on ebay and split the money among her heirs (me and my siblings, grandchildren as well) because none of us had room for extra “stuff” and none of us had any idea how much these things of hers might be worth. I’m ready to sell my grandmother’s silver place settings as well. I have boys (not girls), my own silver pattern and place settings, and no need for the additional silver. However, I could use the cash for it to offset purchases of things I did want in my house (like a bed and new towels!). How many of us have things like this we can sell or call it recycle – to cycle it out of our lives and into the lives of those who would appreciate it?
