    How often do strangers ask you for money?

    I was at a do-it yourself car wash, and some elderly guy rolled up on 3 wheel scooter and 'tried' to ask me for a dollar. I could hardly understand him. This was mid morning, weekday, I was the only one at the car wash. I had no money other than $5 I used for the car wash. He set there for about...

    Front Door Visit From New Edward Jones Representative

    Same thing happened here, a few months ago on a very warm summer day. EJ rep (young, probably early twenties) rang the door bell. Told him we were self-directed and not interested.

    Post your Drone photos & videos here.

    I have the same, DJI Mini 3 Pro w/DJI RC (Video # 2). What I have found is that the DJI RC's screen can get really hot to the touch, on a bright sunny day. As long as you keep the drone moving, (in theory) the drone should be ok. Thanks for watching.

    Should I be putting my car's keyless fob in a Faraday cage?

    I follow this guy on YT. He is located in Ontario Canada and drives a Jeep Gladiator Mojave which I guess is a popular vehicle to steal. He had it parked in his driveway one night and his garage camera's caught a couple of thieves trying to steal his Jeep. Fortunately he had his keys in a...

    Tools to balance the fight between health care costs and bankruptcy?

    My father passed in Nov, in Ohio. Looking to bring mom down to NC. We've visited 4 places here (near us), none of which take the Medicaid waiver. When mom runs out of money at any of these 4 places, it's on the family to move mom elsewhere. I'm trying to contact the state's Area Agency on...

    Medicare Part D changes for 2023

    Thanks Donno. Just did this exercise. Interesting enough Wellcare's Value Script plan came out the second lowest. Wellcare's 'Classic' plan did not make the list.

    Medicare Part D changes for 2023

    My mom is currently on Wellcare's 'Classic' plan : $28.80/2022 to $32.60/2023 per month. Going to take a closer look at Wellcare's 'Value Script' plan $12.90/2022 to $11.20/2023 month. She is taking mostly Tier1 and Tier2 meds, (8 in total). Thinking the Value Script plan may be a better...

    Drones

    Got the drone 'bug' back in March of 2020. Purchased a Fimi X8SE 2020. Shortly, after joining some drone FB groups, and watching YTs, I decided to get my FAA Part107 sUAS license, figuring that perhaps at some point I could use it to make some money. Never pursued making money, but just love...

    John Hancock and LTC - changes

    Thanks to everyone that read and responded to my post. Much appreciated. As mention above, we elected to keep the $140 DMB, at the new higher rate. We probably could self-insure, but would prefer to share the costs, especially if both of us (DW and I) ended up in assisted living at the same time.

    John Hancock and LTC - changes

    OP here, for comparison purposes, we talked with a local Mutual of Omaha's agent, and received a quote for a similar DMB, with a non-forfeiture rider. Even with the JH premium increases over the next couple years for the $140 DMB, JH is still cheaper. We are going to stay with JH and keep the...

    John Hancock and LTC - changes

    I know there are a few people on the forum that have John Hancock's LTC policy, and was just curious to know what people's thoughts are about the new options JH is now giving us. If you have a John Hancock's LTC policy what option did you choose ? Background : JH LTC insurance was offered by...

    anybody have a drone??

    Ran into a similar issue on my MotoG7 phone. The case I bought for it would not accommodate my headphone jack. Ended up having to alter the case slightly with a drill and some sand paper.

    Anyone AT&T Landline without Internet?

    Similar situation My mom and dad are in a similar situation. No internet / no data. Dad was just forced to upgrade his old AT&T flip-phone from 3G to a new 4G flip-phone. AT&T sent him a new 4G Flip-phone. Essentially, they only use the phone to call long distance. My dad was having...

    403B question

    My wife and I both worked at a non-profit hospital and contributed to a 403B plan in the 1990s. At that time, our only choice of plans were administered by insurance companies, VALIC, Aetna, etc. However, once we left the hospital for other jobs, we found out that we had to wait 5 years (I...
