i had a roommate who was a Mensa member. She lived with my wife (girlfriend at the time) while we were in college. She was the weirdest person I've ever known. She always told us how she was a mensa member, personally I thought she was dumb as a rock. If she represents Mensa members, I feel sorry fo...

We probably didn't get the absolute lowest price, but from looking around on forums what others got, I did good. There wasn't any funding to set up, just wrote a check. Overall uneventful.

I would put them on auto pay for $10 a month. It won't affect your credit. You had no idea what you were going to get charged when you went in. You had no choice, and that is just bad business on their part. I think it could even be called predatory. If they want to treat it like a business, instea...

When we lived in the city I repaired all our fences. Don't expect anything from neighbors. My neighbors didn't pay squat but I wasn't surprised.

I have a number of Lowe’s 80v Kobalt tools which I really like. My mower is a gas Honda but would not hesitate to get a Kobalt 80v mower. No oil or gas and brushless motors. I would really like to get a Zero turn Ryobi battery mower from HD as the Florida sun and humidity is a bear. Cheers Go for t...

My wife and I use familynet to see where we are, been using it for years. But it often crashes, is there something better? I don't trust play store reviews. We have Android phones.

Someone broke into my folks home while I was staying there late at night.

The market has been churning, the internals stink and it's been like that for the past year and half. For the past year it's just been a bear market rally.

Maybe S&P is finally headed to 1550. 50% drop and a test of the previous major resistance seems reasonable. Yep. That's how I see it. I thinking we hit 1850 we see negative rates on the ten. Then we test 1550 and we see negative rates on all maturities except the thirty. Years ago I did think we'd ...

DOW is going for 1,000 points drop. I sure wish the news media would start using percentages. 500 pt drop when the dow is at 25000 is much different from when it was 10k.

Many countries in Europe have had negative rates for years.

And those European banks are just doing great. Wonder when DB folds.

Since the market has only give parabolic since 2010, I would think there's a lot of air underneath, if a recession does unfold. I remember day after day off extreme selling in the 2000 bear and the 2009 bear.

[Thread merged into here, see below. --admin LadyGeek] This can't be good when there's over 15 trillion in negative rates already. What does that mean in the longer term? Why aren't the investors just putting the money in money markets? I believe they're trying to get the gains in the net value. Bu...

To answer someone's question, we aren't a fortune 500 or publicly traded. We are actually a local trade association/non profit. We don't have an accounting department, although there is an accountant on staff. Unfortunately, he's on vacation this week. I am sure once I point out the hypothetical 10...

Seriously? I would never go to one of his events, nor would I attend J. Cramer, R. Kiyosaki, nor D. Ramsey.

I was wondering if it was a joke sort of question. It's like wanting to go see Cramer.

My computers all lock themselves after 10 minutes, I rarely do it manually. With Windows Hello, unlocking them is pretty frictionless.

Agree, Windows Hello is great. My Surface Book uses an IR camera and I'm logged in, in seconds.

Forgot to say, my wife kept complaining to me that she couldn't loss weight. I told her to write down what you eat. She did that for a couple months and therefore ate less. It worked.

Keep up the gym routine, just eat less, it's that simple.

Bicycle riding and being a pedestrian has become very dangerous. Pedestrian deaths seam to follow smart phone usage. So it's not a matter of educating bad drivers but survival. That's because they cross traffic without even looking and of course half the drivers are texting at the same time. I poin...

I use credit all the time, I just skim the statements to make sure everything looks good. Very rarely do I find anything. Once wife had double charges but cc already knew about that and extra charge was gone within a day.

So here's the deal, my family travels twice a year, we love it. You live once, then you die. If you enjoy the time with your family while you travel, spend the dang money. Is the Bogle way to live, save everything you can, so you can die with millions in the bank? I doubt it.

We stay at places that have a kitchen if we're on vacation so we can make half our meals or about. Just go to a grocery store and pick up some fruit, bananas, maybe half a sandwich and call it good. If you do stop at fast food, just remember you DON'T HAVE TO EAT THE WHOLE PORTIONS. Generally I eat ...

We don't allow our kids to have phones. When they do use them, it's because other people hand it to them. I've told them do not do anything stupid on it or they'll have to answer to me.

I have heard from people that work at hotels that the chains hate the on-line sites but have to use them so they give out the rooms by the elevator and ice machine to the on-line booking customers.

What about batterygate and the slower super charges that's effected some s and x with the latest software upgrade or downgrade, whichever way you see it.

100 million accounts affected. I suppose the best way to play this is to keep your credit report accounts locked.
