It’s a weight loss solution that does change one’s diet and habits. The problem is, when you don’t have it you no longer have the benefits. It essentially helps people feel more full and thus they eat less. You take it away and they go back to struggling with eating too much.

My old insurance company told me they couldn’t offer me lower rates but if I tried to come back in 6 months they could. I told them that’s dumb and not how I want to do business so they lost a customer who had been paying them for close to 10 years and never filed a single claim.

My auto insurance went up 50% and I’ve never had a claim. I asked why and was told because they had to pay out so many claims and it was more expensive with inflation. Told them that wasn’t my fault since I never had a claim and asked what they could do to keep me as a customer and their response was nothing. Ended up…

Mine went up 50% and it’s just an older soccer mom SUV and I’ve made 0 claims. Switched providers but still didn’t really save much on auto, I did save a decent amount on the home insurance side at least.

My premiums went up 50% and I have never had a claim. Insane.

And it’s worth much less than it used to be

lol, k

lol, k. I actually did counter it after but I guess you had trouble reading that. It’s okay, you can just admit that you don’t understand the topic.

I’m not saying that at all. It’s clear you don’t have any experience in businesses that function this way though. When an employee has a noncompete that prevents them from calling on current customers for X amount of time they easily move to a different company and call on new customers. Once the noncompete is up they…

I think there are some instances where it makes sense, a type of business where you have a portfolio of business and if you go to a competitor you essentially take all those customers with you. The non-competes where you can’t call on those customers for a certain period of time seem reasonable. It’s the ones where…

Except when they think your card has been used fraudulently on a Friday night so they close your account leaving you without access to your money until Monday when their customer service starts working again.

I mean, he’s facing some insane prison time realistically. Punishments in our justice system certainly don’t all make sense when compared but he’s not exactly going to get a slap on the wrist here. Not to mention the amount of money he had to put up to get out on bail. He’ll get his, that’s essentially a given with…

Tesla stock is coming back down to earth really. There was absolutely no reason it should have had a market cap of basically all the major car manufacturers combined. It did so for two reasons:

Beth, does that pumpkin recipe actually call for 2 tablespoons of vanilla extract? Because that’s A LOT of vanilla extract. Going to assume that’s teaspoon, sounds pretty amazing.

This economy looks nothing like 2009. At all.

Assuming you would have actually invested that money for the same time period, most people won’t/don’t

Sold the last of my TSLA stock yesterday. Sure I missed the peak but it was a 382% gain overall so I’ll take it, especially for a buy I made on a whim at the start of 2020. I lost faith in that stock a while ago, just needed a push to exit.

The list is no longer of any value though, they have an editor who specifically chooses the words. They know a lot of people use CRANE so I’d expect it to come up at some point, if nothing else to tempt those people to use a different word.

One day they will start with crane. ONE DAY!
