HGH - Heartland Group Holdings

I was hoping that 70 cents would be blasted when the banking license and dividend were announced but that came to naught. I shall be watching HNZ closely the following weeks and looking for that oh-so-crucial moment when I can finally buy-in, cheers.

I hope it doesn't take off just yet. Allows me to accumulate a bit more and add to my "overweight" position as my meager finances allow I have faith that we will see reasonable capital growth after they report and a very good dividend yield for those of us buying at current or lower prices

5 Awesome facts about clowns:

1. Today’s clowns have white faces because the first clowns centuries ago would kill children that didn’t laugh and grind up their bones. During this process the clowns face would become white with bone dust. Eventually, clowns were forced to stop killing children, but the implied inducement to laugh that the white face represented remains.

2. Clowns often rub themselves with a mix of cotton candy and liquid butter to hide their stifling clowny odor.

3. Although it doesn’t appear in his official biography, Kim Jong Il ran off with the circus as a clown for several years as a teenager. His father found him and forced him to give it up. His dad did, however, allow him to keep his hilarious oversized clown pompadour.

4. Often, people who are alcoholics are drawn to clowning. The makeup and clown suits cover up most of the visible signs of alcoholism. Slurred speech, shaky hands and the inability to walk a straight line are all pluses if you are a clown. Hobo clowns were often just hobos picked up by the circus while drunk, put in makeup and allowed to wander freely through the circus tent. Also, alcoholics are able to get away without purchasing a red, bulbous nose.

5. Clown is a German word meaning “don’t leave the kids alone with that one.”

Seems like a very demonic representation of clowns!

I chose AIG, American International Group.

An All Blacks fan then, or is it Man U for you?

[biker]

Got my shares overnight, so happy to say now.

I chose AIG, American International Group.

They were slaughtered in 2008/2009 over derivatives and other barely comprehensible investments, were bailed out by the govt after record losses, and have now (in my opinion) turned the corner.

Who do you use for a broker if I may ask?

[biker]

Forsyth Barr. Have had a long connection with a broker there whom I trust closely on general financial matters. Forbarr is a bit weak on US research but I pay for a couple of research services so don't mind that.

Off topic I know, but thanks Sparky
