This all makes a difference because I need to know how much is going to eventually go into inevitably useless mutual fund that seems like the best idea and will do fata all for the next 18 years. Ya thats a shot at you slava for all you financial planners and your crap.

Phone calls to calforex seem like they don;t give a fata.

Send me the cheque and ill transfer the money below.
