As of today, my portfolio is +$5100 over last year's close. That is after taking an IRA distribution of $32,400. During the year we also added $8,000 in new funding into the regular account. That amount is equivalent to $10,700 in IRA value. Anyway, my hoping and wishing goal is to recoup the $32,400 distribution. At +$29,500 today, we are within striking distance of the desired mark! I feel just like an underdog sports team, having stayed in the game until the 4th quarter, and if the final few minutes just go our way.......
