‘Fidelity Investments’ Gets Their March Interest Payments Wrong On April Fools’ Day!

April 01, 2024 and they post a ‘Dividend Received’ BUT it is NEGATIVE!

Repeat. Says ‘Dividend Received‘ BUT it is MINUS (i.e., negative). So it isn’t Received — it is a DEBIT!

Plus it is on April 1April Fools’ Day.


Having been a Fidelity customer for nearly 40 years I kind of figured it out, BUT I thought I would get them to explain and clarify.

It wasn’t a quick explanation as I had expected. I was on hold for nearly 20 minutes.

It ALL had to do with March MONTH END happening on ‘Good Friday’, i.e., March 29, a HOLIDAY. That messed them up. FUNNY.

They OVERPAID because of that.

So, they had to go back and recoup. FUNNY.

All because month end fell on a holiday. In 2024?

Funny.

How many of YOU noticed.

A Very Happy Birthday To Kenyan Cardinal Jester, ‘John (Idi) Njue’ (Who Is Younger Than We Thought).

A very special birthday to a very special man — who until last year was the ‘man with no birthday‘.

I, of course, felt BAD for him. Everybody should have a birthday. So, I assigned him, ‘April 1’, a very special day for I, as his official birthday. NO, he was NOT gracious enough to thank me. {But, I did not expect it from him.}

Well, it appears that he, MIRACULOUSLY, discovered his Birth Certificate. He claims that it got erroneously filed — of all places — Hawaii. Yes, his birth certificate, he claims, was found in Hawaii. You go figure.

The Vatican had initially assumed that the birth certificate pegged his birthday as December 31, 1944.

Ooops! NO. Big Mistake. He is much, much, much youger.

His birth certificate supposedly says he was born December 31, 1954. He is still just a baby. Just 70 years old.

So, he will continue to be an elector till 2034.

‘Transgender Visibility Day’, To Avoid Falling On Easter, Is Moved To The 4th Thursday Of Each November — As Of 2025.

Transgender Visibility Day‘, set for March 31 of each year (one day, conveniently, ahead of April 1), happened to fall on Easter this year. That as you must know caused quite a bit of consternation — if not commotion, in some quarters.

To avoid this happening again, the organizers/sponsors have decided to change the date — shift it so that it cannot fall on a major religious holiday.

So, they have come up with the Fourth Thursday of November (each year) as of 2025.

Good choice. Now it cannot fall on Easter, the Advent or Christmas. That is a relief.


WHEN In 2024 Does Cardinal Jester, ‘John Njue’, Intend To Age-Out As A Papal Elector?

This JOKE has to end soon!

He says he was born in 1944. So he turns 80 at some point in 2024.

When he turns 80 he ceases to be a cardinal elector.

We are likely to have a conclave in 2024.

So, we need to know whether he will, or whether he will NOT, be an elector.

That depends on when he admits to turning 80.

He is PLAYING GAMES. He, THE JESTER, will claim his birthday is Dec. 31, 2024 — though I think it should be April 1.

His intent obviously is to stay an elector as long as possible — i.e., for the whole year of 2024.

This is NOT right. This should NOT be allowed. This is making a mockery of all of us. What a CLOWN.

A very special birthday to a very special man — until this year, the ‘man with no birthday‘. Thank Francis, Trump & God that is now history. He finally has a birthday, a very very becoming one at that, April 1. This will also be his last birthday as a cardinal elector. Next year he will turn 80 on April 1, 2024 (Kenya time).

Happy Birthday Cardinal. Have a ball. You earned it.

It Is STUPID, Not To Mention Unacceptable, That In 2023 We Have A Catholic Cardinal, ‘John Njue’, Who Claims He Doesn’t Have A Birthday!

I do NOT buy it for a minute. It is just an AFFECTATION on his part. Shame on the Catholic Church for indulging him in his petty deception.

There is a CRUCIAL reason that he has to have a BIRTHDAY — particularly NOW!

He was born in 1944. Next year he turns 80, thus becoming a non-elector. When will that happen? December 31, 2024. Heck NO. That is NOT fair. That is NOT right.

Just tell us what is on his passport.

He couldn’t have got a passport without stating a birthdate. Not possible. IF he doesn’t know it he would be told to assume one.

Well, I am assigning one to him as of now: April 1, 1944.

He thinks he can continue to fool us. Well he can fool the ever gullible & feckless Catholic Church BUT I am not buying his nonsense. As far as I am concerned April 1 is the PERFECT birthday for him.
