    Work is Prison

    Get a $35 virgin mobile plan and check your email from a $29.99 smart phone. That's what I'm doing. My company blocked personal email site 3 years ago. That doesn't bother me. When I worked for JPMorgan almost 20 years ago, they blocked almost every website!

    Art of begging/threatening Internet provider for promotion rate?

    I called AT&T 3 times to get a promo rate but they wouldn't budge. Saw on other forums that people were successful in getting 20 mb for $29.99 but the best they could offer me was $54.99. So I went with TWC. Now I see AT&T is offering promo to everyone for $39.99 for basic cable, HBO, and 18...

    More arguing after ER?

    I heard a lot of stories like this at work and online. Makes sense since you're spending so much time together now rather than just spending time on the weekend. I probably will get a part time job just so I can get out of the house to avoid a divorce

    If You Were in Your mid-40s

    I 'm 40 and plan to retire at 45. Right now, I 'm at 60% stock and 35% cash, 5% bond from holding Balanced funds. I would put more into bonds, but at this interest rate... 70% stock and 30% bonds make sense with the low interest rate you will get from bond.

    Saving e-mail.....who does it?

    Work email? I save all of them. It's the only way I keep myself from getting fired. People accuse my staff of crap all the time. Then I pull out email from 5 years ago and they shut the hell up. Too bad 25% of my job is looking up old email to defend my staff.

    The High Cost of Early Retirement

    How about Whitey Bulger? One became the most powerful mobster in Boston while the other brother became the President of UMASS and a Senator. Oh wait they both became gangsta.

    Work Place Bullies

    I work with a work place bully and I developed anixety and panic attack because of this bully. I reported this bully but management and HR won't do anything about it because this person produce revenue. So I try to suck up 5 more years and retire at age 45.

    Getting divorced: he partly blames RE dreams

    Glad things worked out well for you! Looks like it ain't going to well for him. Asking for naked pictures. LOL. Your ex is a piece of work. Maybe he's trying to blackmail you into coming back.

    Don't pay yourself first?

    I noticed that about most Yahoo contributor. I think I'm going to see if I can be a Yahoo contributor too and just write completely opposite of what is true so I can get more clicks.

    Don't pay yourself first?

    LOL. I read some of Laura Quinn's article, she has bi-polar. One article say she needs to save for retirement. The next will say she shouldn't have saved for retirement. Then the next article will say how bad stock investments are. 1 month later, she will put out an article that say she should...

    What is your "post-PC" plan?

    I use my PC with 27 inch monitor most of the time at home. When I go to the toilet, that's when I use my tablet. When I'm away from home, that's where I use my smartphone. Don't ever see that changing. Why would I give up a PC with 27 inch monitor for a 7 inch tablet?
