Almost There

[Guest angie]

I found out yesterday from my ex that I am much better off financially

towards my surgery than I thought I am.My 401k is currently worth $12,500

take home after penalties and taxes.I was going to cash out.But a good friend,

a post op,told me it may be in my best interest to hold off for a while longer.

With the stock market in an upswing,my account will continue to grow.Leaving

my money where it is to work for me for a bit longer,by being as patient as I

can be under the circumstances.Doing so,being willing to,will allow me to go

for everything I would like done when in Thailand.And now that I know that it

can become reality,I can concentrate on what my priorities are.SRS/GRS is my

top priority.But getting some FFS,and remove that horrible scar on my chin,will

help me blend in as seamlessly as possible.And would/will give me the confidence

that I can be be taken as a birth woman at first glance.And that is what we all want isn't it?

Patience Ang patience.It will be worth the effort in the end.

A huge sigh of relief and a big smile,

Angelique Angie Ang(lol)

Angie -

While I understand your wanting GRS (today instead of some day (?) in the future), why use your 401K?

Is there any other way you can accomplish this goal without depleting your retirement savings?

Just asking – I know we all have difficulty in finding the resources to accomplish our goals, but we also need to look toward the future (and not having to work the rest of our life!!!)

This is my only means of becoming complete.

At 53 going on 54,time is not in my favor.So I have to work until late in life.

Doing so,staying busy,working until you can no longer,runs in my family,

keeps the mind sharp and old age at bay.My grandpa was a farmer who ran

a/his farm by himself,until he was 91.Becoming complete will give me the peace

I so desire.Money can be made,happines can't be bought,staying busy will keep my youth.

Hugs,

Angie

Angelique, you are a wise woman. It looks like you have things figured out just right.

You don't need any more advice from me.

But I will offer this instead:

(((HUGG)))

Best of luck, and lets watch those third quarter market reports!
