    WADR, why do other's opinions matter?

    Do Non Dealer Repair Shops Stock Car Specific Fluids?

    IMHO, yes. BTW, how many months/years is Honda suggesting for a brake fluid change? Miles don't really matter.

    Did a Danube cruise from Bucharest to Budapest on Viking. Great trip.

    DW will not work

    If your DW has been a SAHM for 19 years, I doubt she has "She has in demand skills (licensed health care/ nurse).". 19 years is a long time. Yep, it would be better if DW helped. If not, aren't you partnership? Partner up!

    Possibly, you should go back and read the OP. Then you can tell us how cheap it is to live on Pluto.

    Live for Less Elsewhere

    My friend lost his Indian citizenship when he became a Canadian 40 years ago. He is in India on a retirement visa of some kind. I asked him about the household help he employees (there were a few years where being household help were job options for him). His response was "on my visa we are...

    What are you seeing in the economy?

    Why bother watching. Can you predict (with any level of accuracy) what's coming and what to do about it. I wasn't alive in 1932 so I missed a chance. I had no money in the 70/80's so missed a chance on high interest rates. I was around in the late 90's but worked in hi-tech and wondered why...

    Live for Less Elsewhere

    While what you say about COL is true, it's not for me. I have a good friend originally from India, who spent 40+ years in Canada. At retirement he realized he didn't have enough saved to live the way he wanted to here. Since he had family there, spoke a couple of the languages, he went...

    Your recent repair? 2013 - 2020

    The plastic bottom transmission cover on my snowblower disintegrated so I made a new one out of sheet steel from a discarded LPG grille.

    How to remove old stickers???

    The adhesive will be soluble in something. Try various solvents, water (unlikely since it's a bath tub), acetone, mineral spirits, xylene and a few others.

    What's your daily schedule?

    schedule? Surely you jest.

    Are you looking forward to self driving cars?

    You guys are behind the times. One of my friends was born in India, lived 45 years in Canada (under-employed for the first 25-30) and at retirement decided he couldn't afford to live in Canada. He went back to India. I went for a visit. My friend had a car. He wouldn't drive it there (nor...

    Withdrawal rate even in bad years?

    I believe the trinity study says yes. YMMV.

    What are the possible ways to make money other than the regular employment?

    +1 I've been rewarded with several dollar millions just to help the princess to relocate his funds. Works simple to help.
