I agree that paying the bills on time is the most important aspect, but I don't think getting a card then ignoring it is a good idea. I did the same thing years ago with the Home Depot card (as well as Lowes and many other "store" cards). But with my Home Depot card, a few months after I used it...

18 years for me/us. I was always focused on RE, based on my immediate family dying really young. I retired at 50, and we've had a hell of a good time. It was a good decision, because now that I've reached "normal" retirement age I've started having some major health issues. So I'd call it a good...

We're new car buyers and keepers. Our new car is a 2018 VW Beetle. We also have a 2016 Honda minivan that we also consider new. I'm giving my grandson my 2004 Highlander. All bought new. Based on this behavior, I don't pay too much attention to cost. Comfort and reliability are far more...

And once you're finished in the garden, you can head over to Miami and board the boat - Nude cruise to set sail from Miami in 2025

Many years ago (before widespread use of CCs) I was working in a restaurant. At the end of the day we (manager and I (asst manager)) would count the money and balance the register. Then we put the cash in a bank bag and walked it over to the bank and dropped in the night deposit box. One night...

+1. I would like to know how to do this too.

Not a dermatologist, but I just tried to make an eye doctor appointment, as my vision has significantly changed during the Covid years. I can't read street signs anymore when driving, and TV watching is getting really annoying. Not to mention I'm finally (at age 68) starting to have trouble with...

Past performance is not indicative or future results.

If you do that (and I agree, it's a good idea), make sure you put a "copy" of the form in the car. You don't want anybody stealing the original.

Wait. What?

Dream on. Go Dodgers!

I have. I've known people whose parents have worked their entire life and built a successful business, only to have the federal and state gov't take approximately half of it for estate taxes. I know the laws have changed now (and probably will again soon), but 20 or so years ago it could be...

Haven't been in a theater since well before Covid, and have no intention to go back. I really like Dune 1, and will stream the new one on our 65" 4K TV. That will be plenty for me. PS - I really liked the David Lynch version too. I acknowledge the campiness, not to mention the not quite...

How much milk is in a pint of Ben and Jerry's? That much (once a week-ish). Plus some almond milk in my Cheerios. Occasionally.

About a year ago I started noticing a large number of orange bags showing up in our mail or on our porch. I asked DW about it, and she told me it was a company called Temu, and that they were like a cut-rate Amazon. I had missed out on Amazon, despite being an early adopter of the product. I was...
