    NFL 2023 Season

    I would hope people won't subscribe to Peacock for the game. It will only encourage them to shift more games to pay channels. If it flops, maybe nobody is offering the NFL big money. Supposedly they got $150 million from Peacock. I hope it flops for them.

    Dave Ramsey rips the 4% rule again today.

    Actually not a good point at all. Why does LeBron James continue to play basketball even though he's made 100's of millions of dollars?

    My FICO Score

    Last time I checked my credit score was 830. I froze my credit back when they had the big leak, what 5 years ago? Still frozen. Unless i buy a new house sometime in the future I doubt I'll need any credit, unless something catastrophic happens.

    America’s Downtowns Are Empty. Fixing Them Will Be Expensive.

    Detroit has none of the homeless encampments I've seen in the pictures posted. They've built quite a bit of condos, townhouses and lofts downtown and they command a hefty price. Seems the demand to live downtown is pretty robust. The appeal escapes me. Lots of great restaurants downtown and...

    Credit Card question?

    So my wife's sister is married to a guy who has no spending self control. He has run up huge debts on his credit cards. Her name is on none of these cards. If he dies will she be responsible for these debts? I'm of the opinion that she will be because they're married but thought I'd ask.
