Marshall and the Movies

I’m not much of the investing type.  I stay interested in the stock market, but I’ve never really given any serious thought to buying any stock.  At my age, I’m more interested in keeping my money in the bank and taking it out when I need some extra moviegoing money.

But thankfully, someone thought about investing for me.  Probably about a decade ago, some family members got me a $10 share of Disney stock.  They picked a stock that obviously had more sentimental value than monetary value.  The certificate sits nicely in a drawer in my room.  I think I saw it a few days ago doing some cleaning.

But sure enough, once a year, I get a tiny check from Disney.  It’s little more than pocket change, but I happily deposit it.  The check is always good for a smile, if nothing else.
