The remaining balance is something like $2,500. All of that amount is allocated to our monthly savings for property/school taxes. I guess what you're saying is you would like to borrow from this savings account to make this investment. As long as you feel confident that we will be able to reimburse that amount somehow to pay our taxes (should we not get a return on the investment), then I guess we should go for it if it's something you're excited about and believe is a good investment. Naturally, I would prefer we only invest $500 because of the risk involved and Christmas just around the corner, but you're the one with the financial instincts and know-how.

Hey how much of the money in our Waterhouse account is budgeted for expenses. I am thinking that it would be a good investment (speculative in nature though) to purchase some options on Enron. The options would expire in January and the potential return could vary between a loss of 100% of the investment to a 400%-500% return. I think between a $500-$1,000 investment would be wise given the nature of it. MC
