Well talking with other members and close friends. I wont continue progress thread. I will post end results only and answer questions. No sense in spending time posting, when there is no relly any interest in this swap. I will say i have 6k invested so far. Lol....
Tata... I will be available for questions via pm..... -------------------- Learned a lot in 10 years... I hardly log in anymore, last login Today Sept 6 2019, and I was forced just to clarify a post. LOL
