    Anyone have a "walking pad" as opposed to a treadmill?

    For $275 I bought a TIMETOOK under desk treadmill last August off of Amazon. Basically a small treadmill that I bought to walk on during the winter. I would use it two or three times a week. With good weather and golf it is now gathering dust. The price was right and so far have had no...

    Wow - complete disregard for decedent

    Why did an 'ethical' attorney write a new will for someone with Alzheimers? My mother who was diagnosed with dementia had a 25 year old will and we suggested having it updated as one of my sisters last name had changed and the other was an address change. There were two minor items that no...

    Anyone still using Quicken 2014?

    2016 here. I was less then happy when they went to a subscription model. I use it for a fancy check register and could move, but just stubborn.

    Take SS earlier if I'll have large RMDs?

    Those born in 1959 will start RMDs at 73, not 75. The Secure Act provision relative to when the RMD age goes to 75 was ambiguous, but Congress issued the following letter agreeing to make technical corrections to Secure 2.0 Act. The result of these corrections will clarify that for those born in...

    Update on Cord Cutting (Cable TV) - 2021 version

    Just cut off Sparklight cable. Last bill including internet was $261. When shutting off there was no push back and the agent on the phone said that Oh By The Way there is a cheaper internet with unlimited data for $55. Same speed as what I had been paying $15 more dollars for. So anyway...

    Hip pain only at night

    I don't recall if this was mentioned, but sometimes knee, hip, back issues originate from the feet. My flat feet and walking around barefoot did not help. Orthotics purchased last year are helping.

    Golf Talk Tuesdays - 2021

    I received the S62 as a gift when it first came out. I have liked it a lot. I imagine that you would enjoy the S70. I have not had any issues with the sensor and wear it from morning to night.

    Poll: Do You Remove Shoes Entering Your House?

    Removed shoes for years until flat feet and years of improper shoes and arch support did me in. Now wear 'indoor shoes' with orthotics.

    Abandoning EVs

    We purchased a 2024 Honda CRV Hybrid three weeks ago. First tank 47.7 mpg. I have really enjoyed driving the new car which was a replacement for a 17 year old CRV. For us hybrid technology meets our needs.

    Sacroiliac Injection

    I have not, but do have constant issue with my SIJ. I've done a lot of PT trying to strengthen the muscles involved, but it does not take much for it to slip and be down for the count. I use a chiropractor to put things back into place. What have you been doing to try to help your situation?

    Appointment with Mohs Surgeon

    Basal cell removal in middle of forehead looked like I had been hit by the baseball bat, but did not hurt that I can recall. Sorry for the slight tangent, but do you all try to see the dermatologist every year? I do after having two basal cell removals on forehead and scalp several years ago...

    Actors Strike

    Things might be a tiny bit skewed in Hollywood. From IO9.com A new report from Puck News (via The Direct) states Dwayne Johnson was paid $50,000,000 to play Callum Drift, the Commander of E.L.F. in The Red One, his upcoming Christmas-action movie at Amazon. If true, this will not only be the...
