I am a huge believer in this. I leave my calendar as open as possible and my door open. I look at every e-mail toast. When someone has an issue I resolve it on the spot. Yes, it interrupts my project and very often, train of thought however it keeps my to do list short and sweet. Rarely does a day go by where I don't…

I don't mind when your lane has plenty of room still and you zoom by me on my right. As this points out, that space is meant to be used. What I do mind is if your using the shoulder or the space obviously designated as "not a lane" with diagonal stripes like the space the space after an exit that someone would use if…

This may be further down in the comments, but what a lot of you are lacking is the building of good credit. I've never paid CC interest. I use my credit card like a debit card. Now when I travel, I know that if I'm in a pinch, I can do things like book that emergency hotel or flight without an issue. With debit only…

Exactly, otherwise it is Yes Sir/M'am, No Sir/M'am until you are given your speeding ticket that you probably deserve and then you are on your way. Some of these tips like keeping your weapon is out of sight are absurd. Your weapon is either legal out in arms reach or it isn't, follow the law.

This would be perfect as a power supply for a multiple raspberry pi setup!

Exactly, but we can't see this too loudly or often lest it actually happen.

Brilliant people are typically not concerned with small talk..... Feigning ignorance is never the answer. The real lesson should be that brilliant people should remember their humility.

You only need one if you know what you are doing, unless you have odd things like BT or RF needs, even then the RF needs could be met by a more expensive remote.

This is good advice, we didn't plunk down all of our savings on the down payment, instead we bought and did things like install central air and AC that was non-existent before. The improvements raise the value of the home as long as they are good return on investment improvements, so now my mortgage principle is less…

For years Apple hasn't minded leaving openings like this available. In fact, several of their surprisingly easy openings might benefit them in the long run. In previous examples such as hackintoshes, where arguably you are "stealing" the most because you are taking apples code, altering it so that it installs on a pc,…

So I have the best neighbor name story, and it is still going on. Three years ago, I bought a house next to this middle aged man who lives alone. He was always out in the yard raking, watering, mowing, yard things. Well he always waves hello and for the first couple months he knew our names, including our dog's name.…

Yes, because the whole point is to lower distractions and if you are typing an address or searching for a name, you aren't paying attention. A lot of newer phones have a driving mode or hands free mode GS4 for me. You should enable this and place your phone before shifting out of park. Cops don't care what you were…

Yeah, and I don't want to be a UPS driver....... Your argument is strange. Ever heard of work smarter not harder? I remember hearing that the guy who repairs the $50K imported car can afford the $100K car if they do things like run their own specialty shop. Do you need more than experience/technical degree to be a…

There are easier ways than simply just not going. Scholarship, working through school, saving early, responsible levels of debt, getting your employer to pay for it..... etc are all viable options. There are stories of people who get by without it..... but the law of numbers says it's better.

Also, while you are there, get yourself and your spouse an advanced degree!

Option 2, work for a college or university with tuition remission. My children aren't born yet, but this winter I will hit the required years of service for my dependents to qualify for tuition remission. For me, that's 6 years of full time employment. I will only have to pay room/board/and books. Also, depending on…

asdgay45q3 is right. Even at a young age you should get a card, and use it like cash, with on-line banking you can even pay it off the next day. By the time I was 19, I had excellent credit due to this practice. I have yet to be charged any credit card interest ten years later and unlike some friends I have a high…

My wife and I decided that we weren't saving enough. We lived within our means and have no major debt outside of the typical, house, car, and student loans, we just didn't see our savings going up as much as we wanted. We just adopted a new budget, and I have it all laid out in Quicken so she can visually see. This is…
