Another Monday morning! The second of 2013 today's Monday Medley, Gimmie More

We are on our way into this new year. Last week has been busy with work, and other things going on in life. So far Flu and gun control are the main topics of the day. I am in favor of a total ban on automatic weapons, and high volume clips. Those are made for military not average citizens. We don't live in the wild west anymore.
As for the flu, I will write more about that in a post this week. Just some suggestions. I do hope for better things for us all in 2013. I am a news junkie, sometimes its just white noise, but CNBC has a lot of interesting items that it distracts me from things I am working on. Especially, when a segment like the Santelli Exchange is on. I love hearing his OP Ed on issues of the day.
That brings me to something I am enjoying. Investing through my ROTH IRA, self managed, I am a tiny investor This is in addition to my 401K at work.. I am finally to the point that I have made a plan for this year of the companies I want to buy positions in. My basic idea is to buy stock companies that I do business with or that have great potential over the long term and hold on to them These are higher priced companies I have to save to buy into.. I have made a few speculative purchases with some success, like Bank of America bought at low and recently sold at a pop in its price. At my small volume not a lot of profit, but a return none the less. Reinvest that in a dividend paying company and hold it for long term. A disappointment is Zynga, which I bought because of its connection to Facebook. Still I hope it will come back up in value over the long term. Still, I am enjoying researching the companies I am interested in and building the cash to be able to buy these. This year the focus is on the big companies which provide products or services I buy on a regular basis. Do you have a savings goal for this year?
