This. I mostly use Adam's Polishes, including towels, but use Chemical Guys glass cleaner and Extreme Shampoo. Both these suppliers have an extensive product line. I stick to the basics now as it's too easy to go nuts buying and trying everything they offer. Lol

In the path here. News has been hyping it for awhile. Especially the traffic impact after the eclipse. My dad and step-mom are on a 30 trailer trailer road trip from California with two other couples. They booked their RV park res East of Dallas 1.5 years ago. Their all retired. I'm taking...

Well, I rolled my 401k out to a IRA last September 2023, due company failure and plan was terminating. S&P 500 was about 4,750. It dipped to ~4,150 at end of October 2023. That's roughly 24% lower from today's close of 5,147. I didn't put my money back into the funds I had and got hung out...

People suck! The end.

Must be the simple screen protector I've been using. Will try a different one.

I bought this at IKEA in 2010. It has held up well.

I have two eyeglasses. One traditional eyeglasses with clear progressive lenses. And sunglasses with single vision polarized lenses. I don't like polarized, so won't go that route again, but that's just me (and I can't read my cell phone with the polarized lenses).

This was 2005, but my accounting contact at a client in Boise, ID had 3 Subway franchises. Had just got the 3rd up and going, but determined once that was up to speed he'd have enough income to replace his day job and then would just manage the 3 Subway stores.

Probably emissions compliance? That's a hefty fee for one shipment! New profit center for FedEx @ that rate.

If the $3k of extra items is written in the contract your son signed, I'd have the dealer install everything included in the $3k. Then, move on. I think either removing or getting a refund for said $3k or items would be a headache not worth battling. Maybe that's just me? I mean, if it's in...

This list has to be at least prior to 2017. The senior lifetime national park service annual pass increased that year from $10 to $80. I bet some of those discounts still exist. I have a few more years before I start raising hell about my old person discounts.

TV viewership is down, 5% in 2023 and 10% since 2018. Dale Sr dying was the start of the decline for me. Then, the points format changed to what is now evolved into and called Chase for the Cup. I was about done at that point. I think it's ridiculous. - Toyota be let in - cars have...

Add me to the list of increases for HO ins. AAA Texas, 28% increase of premium. The dwelling coverage amount went up $20k. Deductible for any covered peril is now $5600 (1%). We bought the house in 2020 and premium was $1,375; it's now $2,800. Dwelling amount has increased $150k or 36% in...

Bad ass! I'd go for if you have the means.

Personally, I'd consider retiring if my NVIDIA was worth $3MM (plus the money I already have). I'd definitely have to break a large chunk off to diversify and create a security blanket. If it represents a nice 'bonus', rather than a life changing event, then maybe buy something, go on a...

Less than $100 cash. With today's prices, paying cash for most things would require carring an attaché case full cash. Lol

Bummer to hear! Hope there is a silver lining in this for you. I just can't wrap my head around sending an email to lay people off. One company I know of, laid off 500 people via email sent early on a Monday morning. Some of those laid off had 20 to 30 years with the company.

I've been with WFB since 1994. I've also used a credit union since 2001. WFB definitely has a long history of unethical behavior and lack of integrity. I tried to get away from them but landed a mortgage with them in 2006 and another in 2020. They haven't done me personally wrong, but wish...

Simply amazing! Congrats! It wasn't a sure bet back then. It took years to rise from the depths of its pullback in 2011-2012. There was plenty of times where you could have taken profits and run. Not easy to pick a long term winner or to ride it through the ups and downs. Break a few...

I bought NVIDIA in 2011 at $22/share (not split adjusted). The crazy thing is it dropped 50% to about $11 within a year (2012). They instituted a dividend and I figured the stock was going to end up like Cisco Systems. Then the stock recovered and just went nuts. It split 4 for 1 a few years...
