    Thought For The Day

    Teachers? The one that I know work pretty darn hard during their workday, then coach or advise in the afternoon, then prep or grade nights/weekends. And generally are not well paid, despite having a master's degree.

    Builder Installed New Home Solar Tax Credit

    I'm sure it is frustrating though with a good storage solution (batteries) it seems surmountable. You just end up paying the fixed costs as IHO says. You are paying essentially "insurance" for backup use. I suppose you could go "naked" with regard to risk by disconnecting from the grid...

    Toyota moving to Texas

    Wasn't In-n-Out already paying that wage prior? The article explicitly says the increase is due to food prices. Seems that you and the OCreg are both just talking your (blame) game, not drawing conclusions based on data.

    Custodian Roth IRA account for kids

    it seems you are saying the UGMA will affect her financial aid, but the 529 will not? I was under the (mis?) understanding that both would reduce her college aid-is this not correct?

    Custodian Roth IRA account for kids

    Also, for the Roth for kids, I keep a paper/spreadsheet log of kids earnings (can't be chores/allowance; think babysitting or dog walking for neighbors or anything you yourself might hire someone else to do) once they turned 12. I 100% match their earnings as a deposit into their Fidelity...

    Custodian Roth IRA account for kids

    I, a many decade Vanguard customer, feel that their customer service really took a dive in the past few years. They forced all of the vanilla mutual fund holders to convert to online brokerage accounts, and now are demanding $25 for each phone call, and $100 to close out an account.

    INFLATION IS OUR FRIEND

    Looks like the price is 9.89 for the combo #3 in Salt Lake City, where minimum wage is federal. So the high prices are going to corporate/franchisee profits, not to the minimum wage workers due to increased labor costs.

    ChatGPT (and other AI/Skynet stuff)

    is the phone app subscription? I was just thinking on my drive in whether I could get it to report my missing newspaper delivery instead of me logging into the newspaper website and clicking through multiple screens. Now THAT would be useful! I've only been using it for minor code...

    coronavirus

    Science is a process for determining the unknown...early on, the hypothesis was that SARS was in large droplets, which do not travel far before falling. 3 feet was the distance prior studies had determined for large droplets, hence 6 feet was deemed 'more safe'. Subsequently, it was determined...

    INFLATION IS OUR FRIEND

    jeez, FAKE NEWS if you actually look at the article, it says: Our subtotal was $47.52, $50.20 with tax. Add the bag of Army men we ordered from Amazon and we gave a total of $57.27. That’s not too far off how the U.S. Inflation Calculator has tracked price increases over the last 30 years...
