I love that!

I get caught up in wanting to write letters of remembrance and reassurance, because yeah, the money stuff is cold and complicated. I know that the cold complicated part should come...

Why not? I contemplate buying expensive things and then breathe a sigh of relief when I change my mind.

My situation is a bit different. My mother is 94 and still more or less compos mentis,...

Timely for me.

Intellectually I know I don't need to worry. But for a long time I've felt vaguely nervous, that I need to "track" my net worth. I blame Joe Dominguez. :D

Since a lot of that...

Unfortunately I couldn't reduce the size without losing the clarity. "Been there, done that.". ;)

We're in the path of totality, with yes, a whole lot of hoo hah being made about it. I'm more in the ho-hum camp, myself. Sorry Catherine! I do intend to be out in the yard with glasses looking at...

I've wondered about that too. Did they think the world was ending? Or did they have some sort of explanation or philosophy for the things they didn't understand, that made it ok. Stuff That...

Ah, no no, I meant I wouldn't just walk off and disappear - from a job, a relationship or any other commitment - I think I've developed enough confidence over the years to work out an exit strategy...

Hi, Simone, thank you! I remember so many of the people here, in fact I often have thought about them even while I've 'been away'. It's amazing the stuff we remember, isn't it? Bae's daughter had...

Actually my neighborhood, a little blip off of Allisonville Road, is pretty awesome, a group of die hard older people who've mostly been here for years. But we bought next to an empty lot, and a...

The hardest thing, honestly, is probably my own pride. I chose Bisbee on purpose for the weather, yes, but mostly the social climate ... after 25 years, I had a life there that felt mindful and...

Yes, Indy is in the "path of totality". So assuming there isn't cloud cover at the time, our yard may be the perfect viewing point. My MIL is coming down for the event, I hear that there may be a...

Thanks, Tradd. You're right, of course. It's a perfectly fine place, I'm just not feelin' it yet.

Thank you, happystuff!

Thank you, Rosarugosa. It was primarily my husband's promotion opportunities and the fact that his family lives here. My mom's in PA so a lot closer, too. ... This is...

Maybe there's a laser pointer thief on the loose. We've got a cat who's more like a dog, and it's one of his favorite toys. He's 12 years old, and still all I have to do is stand by the catch-all...

Thank you Alan... Gracious as always :)





Thank you, Tybee! I've always felt like yes, I could spend more and the opportunities for earning more would probably be there, but that's never...

I can really identify with this. I'm an old-school simplifier from the days of Your Money Or Your Life, and this conundrum has plagued me to this day. I chose the road less traveled, after securing...

Me too. I have missed you guys. I tried to sign on two years ago and couldn't, and figured I'd been banished, and then life got in the way again.

I am, sigh, no longer a Bisbee dweller. Karen,...

In the end, there are two deliberate paths to wealth. Spending less, or earning more. While there's a balance of those two in any successful strategy, Sethi is definitely in the camp of earning...

1:30 pm EDT: It passed, despite Rep. Massie's request for quorum, because the house got its act together and got enough people back to provide a vote on the floor. Thank you to our congresspeople...

Do you understand what's currently going on? Every time I tune into the live senate floor coverage there's just another senator standing up reiterating their own story to a mostly empty room, like...

I really don't get it about the masks. I've done plenty of woodworking and garden digging. A mask that's not airtight just means the dirty air goes in around the sides. In addition, I thought...

As far as I can tell this hasn't passed yet? 12:05 p.m. Majority Leader McConnell spoke on the agreement on the third Coronavirus supplemental. He then achieved unanimous consent that the...

Seriously what the ^&!*# was THAT? ... and to be completely shallow about it, anyone who looks like that naked at age 60 hasn't had much truck with the great equalizer.
