I am completely in love with the tv FX series called Justified. I have been looking to fill the void left by Mad Men as it went into hiatus. I usually shun cop dramas. I haven’t watched one since Miami Vice! I totally have a crush on the Raylan Givens, the lead protagonist played by Timothy Olyphant. The writing and directing are amazing. I actually did a search to see if Olyphant or Justified won any awards. They finally snagged a Peabody this year, but really and shamefully have been overlooked by the Emmys. According to Cleveland.com: “Although Olyphant’s wonderfully laconic Raylan can hold his head up high in this select company, “Justified” hasn’t received nearly the amount of notoriety it deserves.” I can’t wait to catch up on all of the seasons over the weekend. It is a great show to get ready for my move to Texas even though it is set in Kentucky.
I am moving on up in the world. Vanguard just sent me a welcome brochure because now I am a Voyager Services member due to having $50,000-$500,000 in mutual funds. Yeah! Benefits:
Exemption from mutual fund/brokerage fees
- Commission-free Vanguard ETF trades
- Stock and non-Vanguard ETF trades for $7
- Customized financial plan worth $1,000 for $250 (may just do that)
When I get $500,000 to $1 million in mutual fund assets, I qualify for Voyager Select Services:
- Greater reduction on brokerage fees and commissions discounted to just $2 for each stock or non-Vanguard ETF trade
- Free consultations with a certified financial planner whenever the need arises
My goal this weekend is to clean out my car and take pictures of it for the “for sale” sign. I also need to purge and organize my files in preparation for the move. I am thinking about signing up for a zip line trip on 15 May that sounds exciting. That is it for now.
