I am interested why people feel it is necessary to comment on what Petrocelli spends one way or the other. The purpose of the thread, at least I thought, was to be able to see what others spend and t ...

This the same guy who stuck his butt in that rappers face at the awards?

We are on track to spend 47000 this year. Excluding income taxes but includes property taxes and sales tax. This is for 2 people in N California

Cheapest year for us in a long time.

Here we go again... Rolling Eyes

Currently at Ally

Hi folks.

Stop misquoting me please. Clean it up.

Thank you.

Anyone else hate the experience of buying a new car? We did last year. It went ok but geeze...

To op's question.

Very little. A few relatives had their hours cut back. We received a raise but lost the FSA match. Everyone we know is still working and doing fine.

However, maybe is has aff ...

Same situation. Then again I know people with children who have no relationship with them either. No plan myself. Good thread.

I find it amusing how old threads get suddenly revived.

Yeah just noticed. Pretty good necro Smile

Just like anything else. Its all good till it isn't. Congrats on your new/used car Smile

Based on the many retirement calculators I have found the secret to a good retirement - die early.

I find it a little amusing. I realize the need to plan and I do it with these calculators. But if ...

I use both. VG is not always cheaper than Fidelity. I prefer Fidelity's website. I am forced to be at Fidelity anyways due to the 403b. Perhaps when I retire I will move it. But I see others have said ...

One can disagree but remain civil and cordial. Unfortunately, there are some who post here who do not conform with norms of civility but act more like vultures. Larry, come back- otherwise Rick will m ...

Lock the thread baseball is over!. Football sweet football. That is really the American game!

Oh Steelers repeat this year Wink

Alas the world is a harsh place. Go figure not everyone will agree with you Smile

I just read that thread. Im not seeing how anyone was attacked. Im sure the man is busy doing other things and will be back.

No. I have to hide from some people.

scary stuff. time will tell how it will play out. all i know is as the market goes higher i'm going to be selling.

So what if you are wrong?

Wasp spray instead of a gun? Ive seen people eat mace and chemicals while still going on. Learn to use a shotgun. Not really hard and you dont need to aim that well.

I just put my house on the market to buy more gold.

I just want to comment. The title made me chuckle a bit.

Woo Ohio St on track to take another Big Ten title! Too bad about the Iowa Qb.

Yeah I mean I'm expecting them to ask how I plan to pay for it earlier on

When I was shopping my 09 Honda CRV I ignored questions about financing or trade-ins and said that I was interested in a ...

Actually, I m not that selfish that I would wish for all that pain a market crash would create.

Just settled an insurance claim. You would be surprised what you might think is minor. Keep notes,save every little piece of paper, take as many pictures as possible.

Oh don't think your insurance ...

Just live each day to its fullest. Then you dont need a list.

Mickeyd,

What do you expect. They teased adults with easy financing and shady business practices. Now they are spinning they are a nice bank just because they changed their name and we make thing ...

Still makes me wonder what marvelous things I get for living in CA and paying so much tax. Laughing

Gosh I hope the door does not hit me on the way out. Ill be happy spending that pension in another sta ...

Month and a half now. Working fine so far. Various transactions from Vanguard and BOA. No problems. Everything has been done with no human contact.

So where will money go if its chased out of bonds.. Stocks? Cash? Tiddlywinks? Wish I knew Smile

Have a great time. I hate trying to figure out this stuff too Wink

I dont know. Could be in 4 years we have 15%.

You take your chances.

Some cultures eat these animals people are talking about spending thousands of dollars on.

Just another view point.

You got a date check with him or her. If not seems fine to me. But you said its formal. Are you saying its formal because you think so. Or the invitation said its formal. Then again I wear suits and w ...

Retirement planning cracks me up. Ask me 30 years ago what I thought the next 30 years would bring me. LOL. Humans so absurd sometimes Wink

I have a younger relative who has flashbacks from fighting in Iraq. He wakes up in the middle of the night and has to patrol the house making sure everything is secure. When driving by hills/berms he ...

My animals were not part of the family. They were there to serve us. They were treated properly and taken care of. We never had one that needed any excessive medical care. I do not have any animals no ...

Heck. I don't know what will happen. I hope its good though! I would love to see humanity thrive during my lifetime. I suspect so do you all.

I refuse to play by the rules.

Yes without a doubt. Every sports should have some kind of replay. We have the tech now. I accept what happened before we had the cameras and the proper tech to review things. Now its different. Befor ...

Good deal! I do horrible on the flight simulator "games". I would imagine the real deal for the first time is very intense Smile

Id like baseball a lot more if they had a salary cap.

I like AL teams. So Ill root for the AL since my Indians are not in it.

Why not if she can afford it? I see you do not list the disadvantages to renting.

The majority of time people find the best music to be in their youth. I wonder why. Smile

Ranting about stuff is getting old too... Confused

around .4

Climbing the wall of worry. I worry about jobs for the long run.

I would have figured Let's Get Physical is pop rather than rock.

Nah Id never give up wings. Smile
