I don't see how the pre-nup could be considered a "way out". Divorce is almost never easy. It's not like someone thinks "well, we had a fight. normally I would stick it out but since I have a pre-nup, I'm just going to call it quits now" (well, not anyone in a real relationship). The pre-nup just guards against some…

Having been married (and had an very amicable divorce) the best advice I could give anyone is to always get a pre-nup. ALWAYS. The idea behind a pre-nup is simple to make sure that if the marriage breaks up (and half do) that you have a fair starting place for dividing thing which will help cut down on the animosity…

It's definitely because they are looking at the big Billboard hits. If you look sat older or less popular artists/songs, Amazon almost always comes out cheaper.

I read the title and immediately thought she started changing her relationship, with money. I was excited to hear how she was paying her boyfriend to do things and adding a hooker to their love life.

If you look closer, the 300 MB plan is only available with dumb phone, not smart phones. So the cheapest plan you can get with a smart phone is the 2 GB plan.

While I am sure your costs went up, I would question how much was actually do to the ACA. Insurance premiums have been steadily increasing for probably the last 10-15 years. But once the ACA was passed, it suddenly became "My premiums went up. Thanks Obama." The ACA is being used as a scapegoat for a lot of things…

If you want to invest in individual stocks, the best advise I was ever given is to invest in companies you know and trust. Yes, you can go out and research and invest in companies that are up and coming and take your chances, but if you invest in things you already know and trust, chances are they are good companies…

Most things hit the internet is one fell swoop. As people discover "cool new things" they share them and they spread across the entire internet with hours or days. So when something good comes along, it hits all the major sites in the same time frame. So people submit it here, to Reddit, to Slashdot (if appropriate),…

But then the body may roll over on it...

A "brisk" 7 minutes per mile? I run regularly, that is more than a brisk run, that is a damn sprint. Your average person is running closer to 10 minute miles, not 7. If you are averaging 7 minute miles, you are an incredibly runner.

Board Chairman Dr. Greg Hoversten said: "That really bothers me. Iowa women are the first ones to get this in this fashion. There's something wrong there. It doesn't seem right."

I use the Facebook check in feature as free advertisement for cool places I go. I would never check in at a friend's house or at Chipotle, but if I am at a cool local restaurant I'll check in. I figure if my friends see I'm there they may be more familiar with it. Then if sometime in the future someone says "let's…

I am in the same situation. What I do instead of starting the shower is just use hot water to brush my teeth and leave it running while I do. This gets the hot water to the bathroom and then the shower only takes a couple second to warm up. Plus, if it heats up faster, I can turn off the water in the sink and save…

While I love the idea of doing away with tips, adding an automatic 18% "tip" to the check is not the way to do it. This still means that the waitstaff is not making a proper amount of money. On a slow day, they still may not make minimum wage. Plus, what they are paid is still tied to what I order. Why should the…

I found a little. cheap bedside alarm about 10 years ago that is wonderful. Beyond the normal functions like 2 separate alarms, the beeping alarm actually starts off quiet and starts getting louder. So instead of being jarred awake by a blaring alarm, if wakes you up up a minute or 2 and at a sound level that…

I didn't realize an adult size onesie was the new twerking uniform.

You should not snoop, but you should watch. The difference being that snooping implies that you are hiding what you are doing from your kids. Of course you shouldn't let your kids have free reign to do whatever they want, but if you are going to be tracking what your kids are doing, you should be up front with them…

This place is about 5 minutes from where I work. I am tempted to go by and see if I can find a blue Lexus parked on the street. If I do, I'm going to take a dump not only on the Lexus, but on the front steps of the house it is across from. Everyone involved in this whole thing is an asshole.

I have a very simple rule on what I will do for a woman as far as "chivalry". If I wouldn't do it for a guy, I won't do it for a woman. I'll hold the door for a woman, just like I would a man. I won't pull out her chair or open her car door, because I wouldn't do the same thing for a man. It's a simple way to…

My main concern is who is profiting from my usage of the card. I have a number of rewards cards (better rewards in different areas) and I use them whenever I am at large retailers. This way, I get something back out of the transaction (not much, but something). I really don't care if Visa or Target get an extra…
