Then both were smokers, my bad [emoji3]

One of those previous two presidents was a smoker.

There is an app called RV Parky for both a droid and iOS that shows RV parks, along with info about hookups, amenities, pricing, and reviews.

I'm a middle of the middle class kind of guy, and this event is so far north of my paygrade that anything I might have said in response to that proposition from my kid would have offended someone. Perhaps your son has lived well enough to feel such expectations are reasonable, I just can't imagine.

I have my sock allocation adjusted to allow me to sleep well at night.

I've been with USAA for 40 years. I do banking, have credit cards, insurance, and most of my retirement portfolio with them. I have never sent them a W9, or been asked to send one.

Just stayed at the Maison Dupuy, which is on Toulouse a few blocks from the French Quarter. It was nice, and the Bistreaux cafe in the hotel was great.

My mom is 96 and blind. She lives with my DS, has an agile mind for her age, and she gets around pretty well. She's rarely left alone, but in case my sis has to leave mom has one of these: http://www.lg.com/us/cell-phones/lg-VC200-Red-gizmo-gadget Its marketed for kids, but she has no...

Also.. with the current district court ruling, Peaches can be arrested if the owner were to bring charges, as she was the person that unlawfully entered the property. The case isnt about that, however, its about charges brought against the others she invited.

No.. it's not a get out of jail free card. This decision has exactly nothing to do with what happens if someone breaks into your house. People say they were charged with crimes they did not commit, and the decision is about whether the officers involved had probable cause to make the charge...

Its actually not a can of worms at all. I'm not sure how you could infer that from reading what is being decided here. If you are thinking that it might become possible for someone to force their way into one of your vacant properties, and when discovered by police they could simply say "I was...

This really isnt a property rights case, its a probable cause case. This isnt the SCOTUS getting involved in a he said/she said about an invitation, or how the guests were invited. Here is an easy to follow explainer...

These folks, and the networks that control the volume of their megaphone, depend on this sort of headline to ring the cash register. I'm not real keen on participating for their enrichment. Sooner or later the market will give back some of its past gains. We don't know when, or how much...

We just built our home with a builder in Central FL. We couldn't be happier. It cost more than we planned, but that was our fault - some of our choices were more expensive than the standard stuff. While making all the choices can be stressful, it's also fun and you appreciate things being the...

Congratulations! It's always inspiring watching someone else's plan come through :)

Though I'm no expert on this, I attributed much of what you have described in myself to what Maslow termed self actualization. At some point I realized that I had "arrived" in my career as a software developer. The dynamic had changed, and I was more interested in projects that were fun than...

While I thought it was a good read, the "retired" author isn't really retired. Sure you have a lot of freedom as a blogger that you don't as a desk jockey, but it's still a job.

Simple exercise - go backwards in time and pick 10 "dips" you would like to have invested in, choose the amount you would have invested in each and do the math. Now do the math for dumping it all in the day BEFORE the first "dip" you picked. I'm reasonably sure you will find what you are...

I'll throw in that Pepcid twice a day has been very helpful for me. It's not a PPI so you avoid the downside of those.

Perhaps you are not aware, in the ER Forums app the information you mention is not displayed. Sent from my SM-T550 using Early Retirement Forum mobile app

Here's another view, from a site I like a lot: http://www.pragcap.com/the-us-government-is-not-16-trillion-in-the-hole/ Would it be better to have less debt? Probably. Is the National debt analogous to our personal debt, or that of a country like Greece? No. Managing spending would of...

Its a nice story, I hope life works out well for him. As others have noted, it's not "retirement" he is experiencing. Sent from my VS986 using Early Retirement Forum mobile app

Or, use the detailed calculator, which you must install on your computer, here: https://www.ssa.gov/oact/anypia/anypia.html It will let you create whatever scenario you need to. It does, however, require you to enter your income data from the SSA site. Sent from my VS986 using Early...
