    Home insurance rate changes since 2021.

    I am in the greater Salt Lake are. The home owners insurance has gone up dramatically. I was told by my agents-options (companies willing to underwrite me) were becoming limited due to the age of the roof. I put on a new roof ($10,000.00) and got a whole $185.00 reduction in premium. You can...

    Latest budget makes interest on American made cars fully deductible.

    Average miles driven per year-12,000 miles. 12,000 miles x 5 years= 60,000 miles. If you buy a low mile used or new vehicle it will easily last the term of the loan. You would need to perform the normal maintenance and maybe buy some tires. What's the issue? Vehicles cost what they cost.

    Latest budget makes interest on American made cars fully deductible.

    I am not saying this is good thinking-but here is the rationale for what your are seeing- "I'm am never ever going to be able to afford a home, because the prices are through the roof. In some cities you can't qualify for an average home if you make a $150,000/year. So-I might as well drive a...

    Latest budget makes interest on American made cars fully deductible.

    Quote- But the ugly undertone to this business has now surfaced in the form of 72- and 84-month payments, with an average retail price for vehicles pushing $50,000. And even more alarming? One in five new car buyers have signed up for $1,000 per month payments. Is this sustainable? No, of course...

    Latest budget makes interest on American made cars fully deductible.

    You can have any amount of deduction. The down payment and the monthly payment is still cold hard cash. The only benefits will be to the rich.... New vehicles are too expensive... period.

    Discover email reference closing my account

    It doesn't hurt it much and for long. When some bank closes an account - we take it personally and post it on the Internet. Quite funny actually!

    Another involuntary credit card being closed- Lowes/ Synchrony

    Very little impact. The way credit scores work is truly one of the most misunderstood systems there is. Tons of post elsewhere on the Internet showing just how ignorant people are. The following was posted elsewhere- "I am really upset because I looked at my credit report and the dealer who sold...

    Financial graphic comparison of buying a new or used car

    Another day on this forum. Where buying a new vehicle is a curse- supposedly. This is why financial literacy needs to be taught in schools. Some people who buy new vehicles are smart- some are dumb. However- neither case is anybody else's business!

    Death Valley Drive Using Thin Oil

    No. I do know the DIC will display a "pull over to cool transmission" phrase if the transmission fluid gets too hot. Any modern truck should be able to pull that mountain in stock form. Lots of mis information with transmission fluid these days. They can handle high temps. None of the gauges...
