I changed mine from whatever the max was, maybe 10 positions?, to the full 20 a few months ago. If you can't I'd call Vanguard.

Having both on the same page would be better as the hacker wouldn't know which was incorrect. But why say their security sucks? I think it is very good. The userid can be 12 positions so maybe 16 or 20 is better but 12 is good. The password can be 20, since when is 20 positions for a password...

They'll hang up. Here's why I say that, 2 days ago I get another computer call and it tells me about how their pain remedy. The human shows up 3-4 seconds after that. So the woman comes on and in a whiny nasally high pitched old coot voice I say "Ohhhh I have paaaaaain". She immediately hung up...

No no no, you are wrong. I am asked security questions when I call financial institutions. And you want long complex userids, passwords and meaningless answers to security questions for each place because they are long complex and meaningless! That's why you should use some form of password...

There are laws against anything that is fun.

I use KeePass for userids, passwords and security questions. I never use the same userid (unless they require my email address which I hate), password or answer to a security question. What hospital were you born in? Blue2 4X treecorn What is you mother's maiden name? 66 excavator 18T What...

I read about 6 or 7 replies. Frank, seriously, why would a stranger call you about this? How would or could a stranger ever possibly know this? The fact you even ask about whether it is legit is disturbing for your safety. Please I mean no offense but you need to look at the circumstances...

Now Walt has the right idea but in a suburban neighborhood that's not an option. I'm out in the sticks but there a a few houses nearby so it isn't worth the risk to me. So here's how to protect your tomatoes or pole beans from 100-200 pound rats AKA deer. This works IF your fenced in area is...

If you grow your own from seed you can select the varieties. I assure you mine don't taste like tomatoes you buy anywhere including farm stands unless they grow tomato varieties like mine and some do but most don't.

I save, what else would you call it? I "save" $1500-$1800 per month, I've been retired just over 7 years. I don't need to take distributions from investments, I just have extra income I don't need to spend = "savings". I have always been a LBYN's person and I'm not spending wildy in...

I use 5' concrete re-enforcing wire cages 22-24" across with 2 5' 1/4" rebar stakes 2 1/2' into the ground. Mine don't fall down even if there's a hurricane.

I can think of many emergencies that having a credit card won't be any better than a stack of newspapers yet I don't keep cash at home. Having almost $40k at Ally seems to be a lost opportunity in that half could go into a taxable account in equities. I learned a hard lesson about having money...

There was no mention what happened other than they discovered her attempting to "smuggle" (my term) the money. It was a small clip in the paper and I haven't seen any follow up.

I'm saddened to hear this. She was wonderful in "To Have and Have Not". http://www.nytimes.com/2014/08/13/movies/lauren-bacall-sultry-movie-star-dies-at-89.html?_r=0
