October 2005 Net Worth Update (+$1,790)

Here's my net worth update for October as of 10/31/2005. My 2nd worse month of the year, but in large part due to the market heading south and the significant price drop in Pfizer. I am closing in on my EOY goal of $205,000 and hope to make it with a big push in December with some patent bonus money that may be awarded.
