shares of stock in this corporation steadily increased and dividends were paid to shareholders. Suddenly, abruptly, and unexpectedly the stock plummeted resulting in many shareholders including ourselves to lose money invested. A short time later, the corporation reestablished itself in the same line of business with a new name and new owners. One can attest to this personally as I was employed by one corporation that was part of a large corporate park. The corporation in which spouse and I owned shares also had offices contained in this corporate park of my employ. When the original company declared bankruptcy, the new company assumed their office space, changed their name, repainted corporate vans previously owned by the former corporation, and was involved in the same line of business as the previous corporation. In retrospect, I believe the money invested by many people was redirected to some people through a sanctioned form of stealing that also involves other immoralities lodged against possibly objecting individuals to this system, and other corruption. Due to these kinds of apparent corrupt circumstances, religious and moral people who follow and abide by The Ten Commandments and avoid Capital Sins and Abominations may consider expressing concerns to God regarding perceived wealth stolen from them. Some people may desire to ask God as judge, to have the perhaps stolen wealth returned to them by those who stole the wealth, as part of serving justice. This request is likely based on whether or not individuals were or currently are, asking or demanding of materialism which also likely includes the requesting or demanding of certain job positions.
For granddaughter’s birthday, spouse and I desired to purchase a United States savings bond to be hopefully used for granddaughter’s future needs as a young adult. Spouse was informed at the bank that savings bonds could no longer be procured through United States banks as of December 2011 for this circumstance and could only be purchased on the internet, with no paper bond issued to the recipient of the bond. I was perturbed with this new system as many people who do not have internet service most likely would no longer purchase savings bonds thus eliminating a substantial number of people who might otherwise purchase these bonds for children or grandchildren for examples. Due to the above fact, I have become suspicious of this apparent “low risk” investment because of the designed elimination of some investors.
Spouse who barely and minimally attended dentists over the course of thirty years but still paid into a group dental insurance plan at his jobs over the years, required to have somewhat extensive dental restoration work accomplished on his teeth at this time. He was advised that insurance coverage for this year’s extensive dental treatment would not be completely covered under the annual benefit thus requiring spouse to postpone some dental treatment for next year. I stated to spouse that dental insurance benefits should roll over from year to year if not used by the insured during some or many years.
In the autumn of 2011, daughter acquired a Quaker parrot through unusual circumstances. Daughter and granddaughter were visiting at mother and father’s home. Granddaughter was playing outside in the backyard when the Quaker parrot flew close to granddaughter and remained on a low branch of a tree. Granddaughter ran inside of the house to report this “strange” bird to her mother and great grandparents. Daughter hurried into the backyard and quickly captured this somewhat tame and leg
