Doonesbury by Garry Trudeau for October 22, 2019

And there’s also the Microsoft stocks she bought in 1986.

I seem to recall LOL-ing at this when it was new. That makes twice.

I am with mom Doonesbury .

Get him some tools Mom, he’s not employed right now.

Farm roots, eh. Where they grow Chevys?

My wife’s grandfather lived in a little house beside a country road, where he spent his last years playing checkers and selling the vegetables he had grown in his garden. When family visited, they were puzzled by his habit of listening to the stock market reports on the radio. Well, as you can probably guess, after his estate was finally settled among his many relatives, my wife’s share of his stocks was well into six figures.

Whenever in time this is placed, I’m sure a car dealership would bring in a reasonable amount of money when sold?

Sounds like the farmers in the town where I grew up. The richest people around. Suspect it’s not that way any more.

The Widow D’s been holding out…

if they’re going to be evicted from the NYC apartment why not relocate to the family farm in Oklahoma>?

Shut up and get a bucket and help me bail water.

Ah yes. The time honored art of diversification. Those farm subsidies and FEMA checks have to go to something worthwhile.

Obviously Ma Doonesbury does not share everything with her family!

Mike’s Mom is I’ve got a secret guess what it is.

“I haven’t sold an Edsel in years, anyway”

Or, the Coca Cola stocks that Great Granddad bought in 1912 when he let them paint their Advertising on the side of the barn that faced the highway.

They are probably still up in the attic. Somewhere.

Car dealership?
