    What Not to Prescribe to Older Adults

    Thanks for the article. Most of us older folks (I'm 80 and in great health) know this already. I take one drug (Flowmax) which many med take as they age.

    Buying a New Car

    I bought my new Bolt online and negotiated the price and terms. The only visit to the dealer was to pick it up. When was the last time you bought a new car? (If I remember correctly, you have an older Buick?) Many folks these days (and here) do online research, send out requests for quotes to...

    Nutrafol hair supplement?

    Funny, but none of my close (old men) friends are bald, but one guy cuts his hair leaving the hair about 1/4" long. He wears a hat to hide it. Bald is OK by me, as long as it's not me. :2funny:

    Houston got pounded at 6:00 PM. 107 MPH winds in the downtown. The storm was quick and fierce and knocked out power to over 1,000,000 residents. The wind was so powerful in downtown, many windows were blown out of buildings. It dropped a lot of water, too. My daughter has no power right...

    Weddings for children - how much?

    I hired a local BBQ place to cater my daughter's wedding with 100+ guests. They put on a fantastic spread for under $20/person. And all the leftover BBQ was packaged up for me to take home and freeze.

    Bitwarden account - Attempted hack today

    I think my account was hit by a Bot and not a person The Captcha asks you to match an object in one photo with choices from another photo. A human must do that as the bot is software and just runs password attempt routines.

    Rethinking Inheritance

    I don't recall the amount of the bill as it was probably small. The store owner runs a business and Dad made the purchase (on store credit - small town). I didn't think it was right to stiff him. Dad was responsible for his own death by his actions. Alcohol sales were not illegal in his...

    Latest Inflation Numbers and Discussion

    Haircut today! My barber said it's time to go all in with stocks and his floor sweep helper agreed! (these guys are "in the know" from what I hear!) Then my barber said he has raised the price of today's haircut to $30 from $25 and will charge 3% more if I use a credit card. How much of a...

    Weddings for children - how much?

    Just remember to tell the young couples that future divorce costs are on them. And children (with little ones or alone) returning to the "nest" will have to pay rent. :2funny: (this happens, believe me)

    Weddings for children - how much?

    Five years ago, DD got married and I paid for the wedding. It cost ~$30K and we had about 125 people at a rented wedding venue. I saved $15K by hiring all the subs (bartender, disc jockey, decorator, caterer,etc) and not using a wedding planner person. We also made all the invitations. Worked...
