    Being a millionaire in your investment account is mediocre.

    *Investors Blog*

    Only people that sell when down get wounded. I moved conservative three months ago. Moved back aggressive, yesterday. If it goes down more, I'll sleep fine knowing I navigated a reduced my losses during a 20% inevitable market adjustment. If this is bottom, I'll still sleep fine. Paper...

    Sam's club Rotella deal

    With our basic membership there was no free shipping option, to store or home. With Sams Plus, they'd ship it to the house for free.

    Yeah, that too. And if getting there causes investment volatility, I'm okay with that.

    I don't see the stock market volatility as a bad thing. The markets are only play money until its time to cash out, and wisdom in timing there doesn't bless everyone. 1) I want an economy that is good enough that I have a job. 2) I want the market to be volatile enough that I have buy low sell...

    Up until 1 PM EST today was that opportunity. S&P jumps from 5000 to 5300? The buying I did yesterday is now up 6%.

    Rotella Rebate - Feb 1 - May 31, 2025

    T4 comes in a 3 gallon box carton. Misleading that they say "bottle" but surely it's what they mean. Walmart may have the case, but they won't sell it that way, so you'll get three individuals. (They list it online but the rotella rebate is walmart in-store only.) See the T5 and T6 on the...

    Rotella T5 at Lowe’s

    "forum rules" I get it, but this is how national big box clearances roll out. A few people notice it in a few places. Just because bob in boston doesn't see it at his store doesn't mean it's a local, isolated event. My store has it on clearance but sold out. They had it on Friday but I...

    Sam's club Rotella deal

    Yes. $75 is the typical sams club price per case, and then they rotate it on special for $8 off. So this is the best way to use that Rotella spring rebate. Buy two cases, get $80 back. $54 for 6 gallons. Our store doesn't carry T6 so you need to be a "plus" member and get it delivered. Our...

    Car insurance coverage question

    If I fall off my roof does my medical sue my homeowners for the injuries? No. I’m hurt. Now pay for my services. They asked the question. I told them (the automated phone call system) to go pound sand. They didn’t bring it up again. They don’t cover the flu if you got it from another person?

    Lake Speed Jr. ... Diesel vs Gas oils

    I'm cruising at 1500-1850 rpm with my fingers in my ears screaming "lalalalalala." Foam isn't really a concern in my CK-4 application. Granted there's that pesky >100k shaft speed on the turbo.

    Car insurance coverage question

    Speaking from experience, my liability coverage is liable for injuries of passengers in my own car. So that at fault accident I had the other year with my wife and child in the car while towing the camper - their ambulance ride and ER visit is technically covered, even though we used our...

    Free lifetime oil change. FCP Euro.

    You're counting return shipping in your $/change, which is misleading your conclusion. Pirateship and you are the only winners. I have a hard time believing FCP isn't loosing money at $13.63 per oil change, given that also covers their shipping to you.

    Ram Cummins inline 6 oil cap oddity

    I don't disagree. Which is why post #5, which echos the consensus on the street because of some silly TSB that blamed 15w-40, doesn't capture the multiple issues going on in the 2019+ valvetrain failures. We know that contact stresses between a roller lifter and a cam are, all other things...

    When I was in kindergarden my best friends moved to Ohio where their dad went to work in Honda's engine factory. When I was in engineering school I interviewed at the BMW plant in Spartanburg SC. The supply chain deeply benefited the local economy. When I was finishing engineering school...

    If the gov stops subsidizing groceries, demand should fall. If the gov stops subsidizing housing, housing should fall. If the gov stops infrastructure growth associated with green new deal and inflation reduction act, construction supplies should go down. Grand irony. When the gov decides to...

    Delvac Rebate - Spring 2025

    I look at it this way. The rebate is a part of the deal. I'm not buying the oil without the rebate. My WM is on the way home from work. No rebate, I'll just return it to the store. WM gives 90 days with a receipt.
