Hobo Hilton, your article is about the DOW. Bigfatcock posted about the S&P500. They are two different things. Amazon is already one of the top three stocks in the S&P 500. Walgreens (WBA) is also in the S&P 500, so you get both when you buy VOO or a similar low cost index fund mimicking the S&P 500.It's magic.
Amazon to Replace Walgreens in the Dow: Why This Matters
Amazon joins the elite club of Dow Jones stocks, while troubled Walgreens gets the boot.www.kiplinger.com
As a young man, I dealt with Vanguard. When I left I never looked back. The list of "Fund Managers" I dealt with is long.Hobo Hilton, your article is about the DOW.

VOO has an expense ratio of 0.03%, so . . . that is almost negligible. Not a lot of fees taken off the top. As for taxes, well, that is the government, not Vanguard, and you have to pay taxes when you have income, so . . . better to have income and pay taxes than not.
LOL, Yeah, I did not know how else to type it out, so I just typed it out.
So, I'm 3 miles into my 4 mile walk in 83 degree, 84% humidity. Sweating like a pig, and I come upon my 90 year old neighbor cutting up a tree that's in his path... I don't think I will age that well.
I'm not the guy you asked but here's a clue you must have missed.

"I run 8 CNC grinders."
Hey I've seen something like that before. They were used in NOV "hex pumps", the mud pumps we used on the last drillship I was on. The bearings were fine, but the mud pump design was a disaster IMO. We were constantly working on them. I always wanted to bring one of those bearings home and build my own lead sled rifle rest out of it but that never happened....
That could be a slick idea
they have all different pull rates, a nice tight one might work. The new recoil management system for the precision shooters.Yeah I was thinking along the lines of something like a ransom rest for rifles. With full recoil absorption and does not allow the gun to move at all in relation to the rest/vise for accuracy testing. Maybe a hydraulic dampening cylinder or something to keep it from just slamming to the stops when fired. I'll never do anything with this idea before I die, maybe you can make something happen with it.That could be a slick idea
Everyday, 76 and looking forward to 77.
Let me ask you a question, you said you took up this new job 8 years after you first retired. Would you have taken it up 8 weeks after?
Probably not, but before I went back to work, I was doing house restorations on my own and I always had one going to have something to play with in between doing everything else that I wanted to do
Yes, before the back went again, I would say the same thing. I am covered under my works insurance, but July 1 I will move to the wifes. I would have gone to the Dr if not for this "limbo".

My brother-in-law grows and sell okra, does pretty good with it. It's a very prickly plant that most people hate messing with. He told me his trick was to wear an old polyester suit, the plants just slide off it without sticking him!

15 months into retirement now. No looking back. I drew an AZ archery tag this year, getting lucky to draw it in 10 years. Check one off the bucket list.
A friend once gave me some chil-grind elk. And it was really good, too. Just have to be careful to not overcook.
