It is important for us to understand the real meaning of July 4th, "Independence Day." On that day in 1776, fifty-six brave American patriots risked their lives by signing the Declaration of Independence. They knew they would be charged with "high treason" against the King of England and be executed. Nevertheless, they declared that the thirteen American colonies would no longer be subject to the monarch of Britain, King George III, and that we were now united, free, and independent states.
Best wishes.

Jack Bogle's Words of Wisdom: "I’ve known many people in the financial business who’ve said, ‘I’m really proud because I did it all myself.’ And when someone has the temerity to say that to me, and a lot of people do, the first thing I say is ‘isn’t that wonderful, you did it all yourself. And I think that’s terrific, I don’t know many people who’ve done that. But how did you arrange to be born in the United States of America?"
