Wow. Great trip. I’m not much of a traveler but NZ is a country I would love to see.

I wonder what the odds are this loophole gets closed? My new rate will be $175/mo in July(turning 70) which is not horrible compared to rates I've seen posted by others but I would hate to miss the opportunity to use it as you know rates will certainly escalate as the pool is reduced going...

I get my exercise but by nature I probably lean more in this direction.

This confirms info I received from my Medigap company. Below is a copy/paste from their website. "If you cancel your Medigap policy to join a Medicare Advantage Plan for the first time, you’ll have a single 12-month period (your trial right period) to return to Original Medicare and reapply for...

I’m seeing it more. Golf clubs have started adding it to green fees when paying with cc. There is a local tire shop that adds it to the bill for new tires. Credit cards have been in use forever and most buried into their price. Why all of a sudden has this spread to all kinds of businesses? I’ve...

Peacock and Hulu are ones that I have been able to find deals on around holiday time. Last Fall I paid $40 for a year of Peacock and Hulu @ $1/mo for a year. Pretty cheap entertainment even with ads but the ads are about 1.5 minutes in length so tolerable.

A cousin of mine went quickly too. But my old college roommate had his pc discovered when checking for something else. Had surgery and 5 years later is doing well. He’s extremely lucky.

Thanks. I was proud of it. That’s as good as I can do(which is rare) when I play a lot. Crazy game.

Yesterday my happiest moment was playing golf with friends. I hadn’t played in a month but shot 74 and had 2 birdies and an eagle. Playing less seems to help me as I have no expectations and just play more free. Our team still lost but that’s ok.

Oh ok. On other forums I belong to I don't get that when ads are blocked. But not a biggie. Edit: I only get this on my Chromebook. Nothing on my IPad so I can use it if it bothers me. I’m actually using it more….no sure why I picked up the cb this morning. Ha

I'm getting the same thing. Would like for that to go away. Otherwise I like everything.

I have a pair of Brooks Revel and they feel great on walks. But I may try the Adrenaline next time as the specs seem to cater to PF more than what I have. When I bought them it was a pair I saw in a store and they felt good so I bought them. I have/had PF but after buying a pair of Oofos...

I have a great dermatologist. Last year I had a nagging squamous cell taken off my arm and it was slow to heal. He gave me his cell number and I sent him weekly pics of it. I think I'm just a slow healer as I had another one cut off my face recently and the darn thing drained for almost a month...

I watch local news which also carries some national news. It’s mostly unbiased. I also watch some financial news and will turn on a NW news channel when there is a true breaking news event taking place. And I pick up news through various online sites.

My parents were an example of this. Their nest egg grew greatly in the double digit interest rate days. No stocks. They saved and my mom was very frugal in how she shopped.

You have to wonder how much of this is going on with other artists. Some have been using background singers(Rolling Stones, Toto etc) to help an aging singer get through parts and that's ok with me. They are basically being upfront with it. But I wouldn't want to pay to see people lip syncing...

Cloudy in Mississippi but I didn't have any eclipse glasses anyway. But it will be interesting to see how dim it gets.

$500k upfront? That's not typical where I live thankfully.

Yep. In my case I was treated(immunothearpy) for a low grade bladder cancer last Summer. I'm doing well and everything appears clear but there is always a chance for it to return. I know I'm stuck with the supplement I have but it pays everything it's supposed to and haven't had any problems...

No.

According to the Antenna man it can be done but not easy. I haven't tried it. Skip to the 2:12 mark of the video.

Retired for 17 years(I'm almost 70)and I'm very conservative at this point. Like others I was 80% equities or more in my 30's. But now around 15% stocks with the rest in FI and other stuff. I wish I could sleep well with a heavier tilt towards equities but I'm not.

It’s the new norm everywhere. Grocery stores have products that are smaller and cost more. Even a bag of dog food is smaller and cost more. Sneaky way to increase prices.

Thanks for the info. I opted out too.

I use Peacock primarily for live golf coverage and a talk show or two that are sports related.
