How was the first day of spring for you? The sun came out; but it was quite cold here. It will warm up next week.
$10,000 invested in Amazon in its early days would be worth over $1 billion today. My husband told me to take a little bit of $ and invest...I didn't want to take the risk.
Power Ball Jackpot - $687 million
Mega Millions Jackpot - $977 million
I won't be buying any tickets...will you?
Breakfast - Protein bar
Lunch - Meals on Wheels - Ham, scalloped potatoes, mixed veggies, pears
Dessert/Snack - Donut
Dinner - PB&J sandwich
What did you eat yesterday?

It would have been a good investment.
No, I won't be buying tickets.
Your food looks good. I haven't had scalloped potatoes and ham since I lived at home.
I had a breakfast day. Raisin Bran and banana for breakfast. A lettuce salad for lunch, and Fiber One and a banana for supper. I had a cheese bagel and DC Dove Promise for snacks.

@LindaOHio It was my downfall on the scale this morning. I won't be having another one for a very long time.

@just4him Don't deprive yourself! Make up for it in another way.

I don't feel comfortable investing in the stock market. But maybe that's a good idea. Banks don't pay very good interest.

@LindaOHio don’t know about savings accounts but CDs pay more. You can get a CD between 4-6%.

@LindaOHio — yeah, the acid in citrus has made it a thing of the past for me. Sad because I love oranges.

They gave me an orange with my Meals on Wheels lunch. Too acidy for me; so I didn't have fruit.

@LindaOHio Several stocks have performed very well in the past 20 years, Apple is another one.

Imagine investing in Amazon way back then. I don't think any of us ever thought Amazon would become the giant that it's turned into.
Last night we had chicken strips, potatoes and broccoli

@Marilynda1225 That's for sure. So much good could be done with that money.

That would be something if you had invested in the early days. Yesterday, I just had leftovers.

I wish we had invested. Even just a few dollars.
I have tickets for each one but can't check last nights right now as I left them in hubbies truck
