    My 401k

    I have already maxed out this year, hope it will catch up in less than 10 years. I was considering making some changes since 40% of it is in mutual funds. But I don't wanna sell low... Please Obama, Do Something Like You Promised! :long: :cheese:

    banked owned is so competitive!

    My co-worker made an offer for a bank owned property in Northwood few months ago. The asking price was $689k. His offer was $750k. There were 11 offers in all, and the final winning bid was $869k. He was told that's 10k more than what was owed to the bank. Go figure that! :roll:

    My 401k

    I finally got the courage to check on my 401k. I wasn't sure if I should cry or faint first. It has lost about 40% of its value... :down: My brain tells me to stay put and don't make any changes. It will come back up in, oh, I don't know, 10 years?? My emotions are screaming to do sth...

    My BFF left Irvine to Brea for a dinner party. She left at 5pm, she just called and said she's not there yet! She took the local streets.

    Is it me or do most of the female anchors on K-CAL 9 have abnormally large breasts???

    Even Pat Harvey is beginning to show some cleavage to compete with the others, that's so sad. My girlfriends always wonder where does Jackie Johnson get her clothes, they always look two sizes too small (I wonder why, haha), and she has a thing for belts. Every time she comes out with a belt...

    The gated Northwood II is getting killed

    Can anyone tell me how can I find out when will open houses be held for these properties? I called an agent from Remax to see if she can show them to me. She wanted me to get preapproved first. I just wanna peek, not commit. :cheese: Thanks!

    Vegetarian restaurant thread

    We go to this place in Rowland Heights EVERY single time my mom's friend visits from New York. I like it because it is clean, the staff is super friendly. They have honey walnut shrimp, kung pao chicken, sweet and sour fish, but of course they are all made with soybeans, bean curds, gluten...

    Humidifier Recommendations, please.

    I don't know what type I purchased, but I did put the weight issue and the white powder issue into consideration. I ended up buying a Kenmore at Sears, a little over $100. The salesman was surprisingly knowledgeable, was that you, AO? :cheese: Thanks for everyone's input!
