There is not a whole lot to report this month. Just rolling along and making money.
I might buy some ETFs. USAA might make some new ones, I might check those out.
I have thought about selling ExxonMobil. I think that oil companies will probably go down in value. I think they will definitely have fewer employees in a few years. I am still above my cost basis. It has gone up because of Hurricane Harvey. Usually hurricanes wipe out investments. Now one is helping bail me out. A hurricane is keeping my Exxon shares afloat.
