I am excited about turning the calendar. I have no doubt that 2020 will be an interesting year.

I love writing every day on the blog. I am amazed at how far and wide the readership extends. In response to my story about my uncle Jack yesterday, I received this amazing note….

Hello Howard:

My son-in-law – an investing enthusiast – is a follower of yours. He just sent me the link to the story of your hero Uncle Jack. What an amazing story. I’m happy to know Uncle Jack is alive and well.

I thought you’d be interested in knowing that my father, ***** *****, took that photo of your uncle. He was working for the Toronto Star at the time.

I have a crate filled with Dad’s negatives & slides. If I ever come across this photo of your Uncle Jack I will get you a copy. Free of charge.

All the best in 2020.

Talk about a small world.

It always feels real nice to get nice emails from readers but this one stood out in 2019…

Howard, you never fail to amuse, inform, amaze and delight. Discovering you in 2019 was one of the highlights of my year!

Hoping for good health for you in the coming year. My wife and I have lifted you up prayerfully in the last several days.

When I started writing here on the blog (Google Blogger) back in late 2005, I had no idea what I would be writing about or what to expect.

Today, I can’t imagine not writing here daily and appreciate the constant surprises from the growing community.

I hope everyone has a happy and healthy 2020.
