I feel this. Health Insurance will be my single largest expense in retirement. The benefits will be comparable to what's offered by mega corp, but without the mega corp subsidy. It's going to be plus/minus $2,000 per month with a high deductible HSA type plan.

Insurance costs are one factor that goes into the P&L equation. remove the cost, more profitable, but you are exposed on the downside if they go by by. Have you considered the payouts in potential claim situations? example, they burn to the ground. You don't need them to burn to the ground...

I love the "is this being discussed" similar thread feature.

My opinion, 50K each is exceedingly generous. What were doing? Undecided. 2 boys, 1 girl, and we envision her engagement in the next year or two. we've discussed the concept of big weddings (not fans) and have gone so far as to encourage elopement. we've also discussed a small gathering in...

first, big deep breath. 1. I would suggest you call the rental company, and ask for an explanation. 2. I would dispute the debt collection. they can't report you to any credit bureau while the debt is being disputed.

100 points or more for 3 years. I learned this due to a dispute, again, over a health insurance bill for my wife. had no idea she got dinged until we filed for a HELOC and the bank didn't want her name on the note due to her credit score. I would not advise ignoring this.

If you got a legit debt collection notice, they are obligated to provide proof that the debt is legitimate. I'm dealing with a $67.50 charge that my health insurance company was supposed to pay. the notice from the debt agency has a box to check if I dispute the debt. as far as dinging your...

I have no idea how long "normal" is, however, it can take some time to filter down from the authority who issued the charge to the end user. example, i get loaners from the local dealer when the car is serviced. technically a rental. the loaner's never came with ezpass, and inevitably I'd go...

get an explanation as to the traffic infraction. I live in NJ, and assume it's either a red light ticket, or a toll violation. lets see if I'm right. as to the threatening of credit, assuming the 50 charge is legit, there may be a way to settle that separately, and then get the rental company...

Insulate the garage ceiling (heat rises) and introduce a second AC system. You might get away with a window unit or wall sleeve unit, but the minisplit is probably the most efficient and cost effective. buy once cry once.

I think the OP is asking for a safe major that might translate into multiple career opportunities. 2 of my kids went for business administration. one now works in a sales/support role for s&p global and the other is in manufacturing, working with his hands and tools building stuff. I noticed...

Just buttoned down our Chicago trip to see the mets in June. Me, wife and middle son fly EWR to ORD, daughter DEN to ORD. 3 nights in a suite in Chicago. Mets/Cubs on Sunday, White Sox/Dodgers on Monday and then we take Amtrak to Milwaukee to see the Brewers on Tuesday. Everyone flies home...

I see those plans flying up/down the Jersey Shore during the summer. I think they leave from airport in Wall, fly the coast to Sandy Hook and back. Always makes me smile.

who is the life insurance policy on, or for? who is the "insured" I ask, because if it's gggrandma, ten grand buys whatever amount of life insurance that gets paid to a trust for the gggrandkid, well, that's not so bad. It were talking about a 10k policy on the kid, no bueno, in my opinion...

the gentlemen was really good. guy richie series, so quirky like a tarrantino thing. we really good, great plot twists and a bunch of over the top stuff, most really funny.
