Cash back is great when it’s a personal card but if I can transfer my business points to a personal card and then use them, it’s a free untaxed perk. I may still move back to that route honestly. I don’t have time or feel like the effort of making sure my Sapphire is being used well enough

Southwest has their companion pass, I just thought someone may know of someone other perks out there.

If you have lived there 20 then I’m assuming you have roots down? The avg person won’t live in the house long enough to be repainted again.

That old aluminum is probably made to last. I wouldn’t replace aluminum with Vinyl personally. But it’s your house

Really depends on the size boat/ and people and budget. Lady Em does slay fish but that’s a 65 ft boat. Chris Kirby is great but he isn’t cheap. One Shot charters runs an Invincible cat I think.

Those that are saying the thermal fuses...

my dryer is electric so it may be different, but mine would not turn on at all when the thermal fuse went out a few months ago.

I'm not an appliance guy but I've had to replace them on multiple different dryers, I can tell you that they are different. Some of them as you said are made to where it cuts the power to the circuit board, others it just cuts the power to the heating element. My current one it cuts the power to the heating element, its annoying. Doesn't even throw a code.

Far enough out to give you time come to your senses and cancel the plans while they’re still refundable.

This isn't the OT, no reason for these comments here.

What are your suggestions for a great vacation?

To imply we shouldn't have gone because I'm not as spry as a 20 yr old is ridiculous.

I don’t disagree. But I was referring to the avg lazy American and then throwing in older and mobility limited, it’s harder to suggest Italy.

The one thing about Italy and Rome is the amount of stairs. Especially places like the coliseum, Roman forum, and Vatican which all just have a ton of stairs. But yeah, plenty of elderly go and there’s still plenty you can do.

What’s the rest of your time OP? 1 full day, do you have another half day? Or 2 other half days or what?

Are you adventurous at all?

It’s popular to rent a bike and ride across the Golden Gate Bridge to salsalito and then take the ferry back. I’ve done most of that on foot but never biked, I think that’s a great way to see the area and really like a 3/5 on the adventure/ effort scale so very doable. Weather is generally great for biking.

I really enjoyed Alcatraz, but it’s a good 1/3 day depending on your timing and plans.

Walk along the wharf, through the main tourist areas, explore some neighborhoods, walk down Lombard st, etc can all be done in a day or less.

I have a side business with 1099 income. Basically use account to separate business from personal finances. Effectively only use it for clearing account before moving money to solo 401K or pay self employment taxes. No real expenses - everything I spend gets reimbursed and put on personal cards - so not really making purchases from account.

You need to get a business bank account and a business credit card account asap. REALLY bad idea to be mixing this stuff up, at all.

If you buy something with a personal account you should be paying yourself back from the business account.

The main reason to use a local bank is the ability to establish a relationship with a banker. But in regards to actual transactions, deposits, app use, mobile deposits, transfers, etc. there's nothing wrong with using a larger bank. Most commercial banking has no fees with very little balance.

Make sure you clean that vent pipe really good. I had air coming out of a 6 ft run but wasn't enough air flow, so safety feature shuts heat off after a short time.

It’s often times the thermal fuse, but I think the thermal fuses go bad because of the lint build up
