In this newsletter, you will find an article
on Inflation-Fighting Stocks to Buy. This is
a great article to help you understand how
inflation threatens your future and what to
do about it. In addition, there is a Funny
Life Story about how I met my wife--very
interesting to see how a Boudreaux like me
met a southern belle. And there are a couple
of interesting jokes.
Please notice that I have started putting out
more timely newsletters on a monthly basis
rather than the way I used to do it on a
quarterly basis. The material in this
newsletter was developed using July magazines
and journals that have not even hit the
newsstands yet.
Enjoy, Lucian

Understanding Inflation Beating Stocks
Prices on many things have been
falling recently. From autos, to airplanes,
to certain commodities like iron ore, and
zinc--All of these have falling prices. I
believe, as the pros do, that inflation will
be back sooner rather than later.
What Type of Inflation Will We Have?
It would be good to find stocks that will
thrive even in the face of significant
inflation. Will we have "hyperinflation" at
say, 50% per year? No! But, we will not
have modest inflation, say 3%-5%. We are,
however, going to have significant inflation
if the government continues on the current
course spending. Significant inflation may
be in the range of 5% to 20%.

Meeting Suzanne
Suddenly I was single with a son.
After my first failed marriage, I swore I
would never get married again. That did not
mean I did not need a date from time to time.
I needed dates to go to Baylor University
functions, where I was the Associate Dean. I
was 29 years old. I taught an undergraduate
course and graduate accounting courses.
In order to get a date in the small town of
Waco, Texas, I would occasionally ask
students if they had an older sister who
might be available for me to take as a date
to Baylor functions. Occasionally, I would
strike pay-dirt and get a date with an older
sister of one of my students.

The Oldest Profession
Four professionals were out of town and after
eating one evening went for a walk. They
encountered a lady of the evening. Although
they declined her favors, this prompted a
discussion of what is really the oldest
profession.
The lawyer said - "Law is the oldest
profession. Moses brought the law down from
the mount in 1500 BC."
The doctor said - "Medicine is the oldest
profession - God created woman from man's
rib- what a tremendous piece of surgery."
The engineer said - "Engineering is the
oldest - In Genesis, God created order out of
chaos. What a tremendous engineering
feat."
Then, the accountant said - "Who do you think
created the chaos?"
