Precisely what I was thinking....just because the card they’re trying to charge no longer works, doesn’t mean you’re off the hook for what you owe. Anyone that follows this advise is just itching to destroy their credit.

And everybody get’s rescued by, let’s say, Moe.

I think part of that is based on people’s fear of being shamed. Everyone is so fucking quick to narc on other people for the slightest infractions (I mean, have you ever looked at your town or city’s facebook page?! - it’s all complaining about each other).

How is this not graffiti? If I go and spray on the pavement I’m going to be, at the very least, fined. This is just a dumb advertising/publicity stunt - if they wanted better roads they could stop trying to weasel out of taxation.

The only way to win is not to play.

As best I can tell, it’s a list of “Which state has the best 529 plan for its residents”. Which is of extremely limited practical use for most people.

My daycare alone costs 24k for two kids a year... I miss every penny and the time with my kids.

Salary is such a ridiculous measurement anyway—especially during your 20s-30s when you should be making significant gains with experience. I make 2x my starting salary when I graduated six years ago, so while I’ll certainly have sizeable savings by the time I’m 35, it’s likely not going to keep pace with my rapidly…

Basing it off of salary seems strange, I was doing great two years ago according to that figure but got a substantial promotion/raise since then so am under that now.

It test or ODI they certainly make every effort to get the ball back, and if they can’t the umpire has a box of previously played balls from which they select a replacement. I’m not sure what’s up in 20/20 now, I quit watching it after 2 or 3 years, but the condition of the ball is of much less concern, since a day of…

IMO rental property only works well if you can pay all, or a very significant portion of it, off at once. i.e. you don’t need the income to pay for the property. Or you’re able to afford a decent 4+ family complex ($$$) where rental income is covered even if one or more units are not occupied.

1,000 whole dollars? I’ll get right on it.

A “retirement” system which starts off by redefining retirement doesn’t fill me with confidence.

Having worked in billing for a variety of telecoms, I can safely say that I would NEVER trust a payee to handle autopay.

As we seem to be updating in the comments, Selective Fire refers to a firearm’s ability to select the rate of fire. Typically, Single fire - one trigger pull, one round, burst - several rounds per trigger pull, and fully automatic - fires until the trigger is released or rounds are exhausted. There’s another chapter…

Good Eats is on the Cooking Channel (if your provider carries it). And they are showing episodes from the earliest seasons (today’s schedule has episodes from Seasons 1-4 and 10).

i used it once and realized that they take a cut to pay my bill. i am paying to pay my bills. that was when i realized i don’t need it. how anyone pays to pay their bills is beyond me.

I would have guessed something simpler, they’re shutting it because it has a decent maintenance cost and no one is using it because most bills already have their own autopay. So there either isn’t profit or isn’t enough of it. I use mint but never even considered using their bill pay.
