"ask yourself why it took the threat of resignation for your current employer to make a counter offer" ... well I mean typically you don't get a counter offer without an offer from another party. I can speak from experience that taking a counter, in my case, meant a huge increase in pay as well as no lost opportunity…

Saving is unorganized: Saving money is a good thing, but your savings account needs to have a goal. You will be more successful if you designate a savings account for each category of savings. For example, your emergency fund will be in one account, your vacation fund in another account, and your kitchen remodel or…

One other thing to note. VFIFX has a 1k minimum while VASGX has a 3k minimum. I don't know if that matters to you, but it's something to consider.

So let me preface this with "I have thought about this for a month or so and am ready to do it." After doing my research on investing and the different types of funds, I settled on Index funds as the way to go for me. ETF's seemed unnecessary as the fees were much higher and I am not really interested in…

Every house is different obviously, if you're pipe is under a concrete driveway or something like that you are going to pay more. The prices will vary widely…

Some of these estimated repair costs are a joke. If you're paying 50k to repair you're plumbing or 20k to replace your breaker box, you deserve to loose that cash. I live in a large city and you would be hard pressed to find a quote for these repairs higher than the low estimate in this article.

Isn't this what the NSA is for?

Incorporate it into the application fee to apply for the weapon. Much like employers require the potential employee to pay for their own physical assessment if required for employment.

Just require a mental health evaluation to get one and I'm happy...

Sorry...I saw no videos of things blowing up, so I cannot confirm nor deny the validity of findings in this article.

I don't get it...Android owns 80% of the mobile phone market last time I checked...why does it always seem that iOS get's the latest updates first. You would think they would prioritize the majority over the minority.
