Veteran's Day: Please Stop Thinking About Money
This post by Jill Schlesinger originally appeared on CBS' MoneyWatch.com.
"Whereas the legislatures of twenty-seven of our States have already declared November 11 to be a legal holiday: Therefore be it Resolved by the Senate (the House of Representatives concurring), that the President of the United States is requested to issue a proclamation calling upon the officials to display the flag of the United States on all Government buildings on November 11 and inviting the people of the United States to observe the day in schools and churches, or other suitable places, with appropriate ceremonies of friendly relations with all other peoples."
Today is Veteran's Day and while the bond market is closed, the stock market is open. I know it's hard, but to honor our brave soldiers, I'm going to ask you to stop thinking about money, at least for a brief period of time.
