My 401k went up more than that last year.... 7% isn't a great return if you are looking at investments, especially with everything bouncing back from 2009... (S&P500 went up ~10% in 2010).

"Rock, sometime, when the team is up against it, and the breaks are beating the boys, tell 'em to go out there with all they got and win just one for the Uecker. I don't know where I'll be then, Rock but I'll know about it; and I'll be happy."

Not great last year, but 50% from 2005 to 2011 is pretty darn good, if you ask me!

Yeah, over that span, including the recession, its pretty good. About 9% ROI per year. Probably did much better than his other businesses during that time...

fwiw....

 

Brandon Beachy won the battle for the Braves' #5 starter.....the 24 year old rookie is having a fine spring: ERA=1.80 ... WHIP=0.80 ... K/9=9.00 ....the Braves optioned rookie southpaw Mike Minor to AAA-Gwinnett (to work on the consistency of his breaking stuff)

 

I mention this because Melvin turned down the Braves trade offer of Beachy for Cain

I'm ok with what Melvin ended up getting for Cain http://forum.brewerfan.net/images/smilies/wink.gif
