Let's say a group of people want to put in earbuds and listen to music at the exact same time from their phones - not Bluetooth. I think I've seen people have silent concerts somehow? How does one do this?...

[quote]Bruh, you saying you can name one couple making $30k a month now that’s gonna be cool living on 6k a month in retirement?[/quote] Never said that. You're making a lot of assumptions you don't realize here. Just because someone is in a certain bracket does not in any way mean they are sp...

The big driver is fear of assumed future tax increases. While that could be the case, making a decision on what you think tax rates will be in retirement is not a wise way to make a decision today. The fear-mongering on my local radio station about the death knoll of future tax rates makes me wan...

Don't over-complicate it. If you can meet your short- and long-term goals while also paying to go to your country club, then do it if you want. Like someone else said, if you join and feel like it's too much, resign your membership. Problem solved. Consider also how much quicker you might be a...

As others have said, if you're just getting cash back, there is no financial reason to leave them on the card. I got sign-on bonus a couple years ago with my Chase Sapphire with the intention of using the points for our 10-year anniversary this year. 130k points later and we're going to an all-in...

[quote]I just can never understand the logic of using these services. If you start with the assumption that EVERYTHING will get hacked at some point, then how can it be smart to concentrate all your passwords in one place?

I just started using Keeper after the LastPass debacle and I have zero complaints so far. Works perfectly on my Pixel 6 Pro and browser extension.
