The one who looks out for your finances the best is the person you see in the mirror. Your financial education is free, you can get it at the public library (well you pay for it via your taxes if you use it or not). Some of the community colleges have decent courses but stay away from some broker seminars trying to sel...more

Big Brother has killed Free Enterprise !! Unless the government subsidises the business or they are a quasi-government entity, the government whoevers should have no right to tell the private business owner who they do or do not have to do business with..... these folks should be able to find many other bakers who will...more

A very wise man taught me that it isn't always how much you have, it's what you do with it that counts. Even tho we saved and scrimped and put $$ into the IRA's, paid off our mortgage and cc bills, saved and paid 2 years of college for each of the 4 kids (paid not borrowed, then they were on their own), managed to be l...more

Not surprized, Oreck was always overpriced, did not hold up well or pick up well, went back to the old Hoover upright (with bags), not glamerous mostly made of plastic now so they are lightweight but they picked up well and were cheap enough that after 3 years when it quit it got replaced. Never liked bagless vacs, muc...more

Yes, I hear you big time, really good haircutters are very rare.

Long term picks, well as old retired people we don't count on the maybe someday mightbe potential etc. Look at some of the old tried and true, not huge dividends but steady and dependable is what helps us pay the grocery bill, some never missed a dividend in over 100 years like ATT, ConEd, DuPont, big utilities, consum...more

Agreed 1000%, the owner has to be smarter than the dog. Mark TWain said that if you pick up a starving dog, feed him and make him well, he will never bite you, and that is the difference between people and dogs.....I trusted my pit bulls 99% more than most people I ever knew. Any breed can be aggressive, kick them arou...more

A very wise man taught me that the problem is the owner needs to be smarter than the dog..... that pretty much sums it up......I had pit bulls (big ones, over 100 pounds) for about 40 years, never a problem, very good natured, calm, unbelievably strong and protective of me, I had to pay for a monitored security system ...more
