History buff in Southeast Texas 📜 Dwarf Hunter in WoW ⚙️ Learning to invest one year at a time. Local history, Azeroth forever and lessons learned.

Started investing last year for one simple reason: a little extra for retirement. What finally got me going was how easy the apps made it. No broker, no big minimum. If you've been putting it off, what's holding you back?

@Penzyr Great first day.

[Maxtemp @t56eng]

@Penzyr So true.

[Maxtemp @t56eng]

@Wowforeverguide About 5 minutes, because I'll be ooh and aahing at everything.

[Maxtemp @t56eng]

@Wowhead Done, I've looked up and at everything. I'm ready.

[Maxtemp @t56eng]

@Warcraft Slept, sort of. Steelshot Thornbuck heads into Northshire at 5pm Central. Who's starting Alliance and who's starting Horde?

[Maxtemp @t56eng]

Launch day. WoW Forever goes live at 3pm Pacific, 5pm Central. Steelshot Thornbuck's first hour is simple: Northshire, a few wolves, and no rushing. Playing since 2005 and I still get launch-day nerves. What's your first-hour plan?

Henry J. Lutcher was born 190 years ago, Nov. 4, 1836. He moved to Orange in 1878, and the Lutcher and Moore plants there and in Louisiana were among the nation's largest.

Who grew up hearing about the Lutcher mills?

@buhlissx Me, late into the night.

@armoryforforge Human Hunter, wanted to play that combo in 2005 but wasn't a option.

[Maxtemp @t56eng]

Steelshot, Mecha and Henrieta are holding down Midnight while I go back to where it all started. WoW Forever launches tomorrow, 3pm PST. The mechanical pets stay home. A real bear is next. Who's logging in at launch?

[Maxtemp @t56eng]

He hoped to fly, but a Navy physical found he was color-blind, so he trained as a radioman and rear gunner in torpedo bombers. In 1945 his pilot's ear infection grounded their crew, while the rest of the squadron went to the carrier Bunker Hill, hit by kamikazes days later. Thank you for your service when we needed it the most.

@Wowhead I enjoyed the overview video, not bad Blizzard.

@RandyRRQuaid Amem, brother

@Daan1985fct @Wowhead I missed the launch of World of Warcraft in 2004 by a couple of months, but I was there for The Burning Crusade and all the rest. They have been crazy.

[Maxtemp @t56eng]

@crookedamigo @Wowhead Sweet, I enjoyed many hours playing the first game back in the day.

[Maxtemp @t56eng]

@RadekSchneider9 @Wowhead Correct, shared CD on traps is not buff, its a nuisance.

[Maxtemp @t56eng]

Mel Farr was born in Beaumont 82 years ago, Nov. 3, 1944. The Hebert High star went on to UCLA, and in 1967 the Detroit Lions drafted him 7th overall. He was named NFL Offensive Rookie of the Year.

Did anyone's family see him play at Hebert?

Two days until I head back to the old world. One last look at Rixi's best Midnight moment: the reward chest after her Tier 11 Labyrinth of Kindo'jan clear. Small Gnome tank, big loot box. What's your favorite Midnight moment so far?

[Maxtemp @t56eng]

@awealthofcs Good reminder that even a normal year has 1 in 5 stocks down 10% or worse. I buy in small fractional pieces and I'm still learning. For beginners, what's the best way to get ready for that "yet"?
