I began charting stocks 50 years ago in April 1962.
Computers came along and made charting and calculations much easier.
I was a stock broker for seven years.
I am glad that I was; I am glad that I am no longer.

King County is one of the top economic engines of the entire world.
Snohomish County, as the smaller sibling, often isn’t noticed much.
I try to pull Snohomish County business information out into the light.
Often that may be something bright that has been overlooked, but sometimes it comes from the dark side.
Don’t expect to agree with me all the time, but I hope you will consider what I have to say.
