The article really shows how we should not panic, and you have to look at the longer term. Don't buy fad stuff, like gold or oil in large amounts.

We had the first RCA color TV. It was a huge box with a huge screen that we had to place on a table. Very heavy and bulky. I remember we had to constantly "re-tune" the TV for each and every station. CBS's color broadcasts were greener and browner than NBC's broadcasts. NBC had the best color picture of them all.
I remember vividly watching one of the first CBS televised color shows, The Red Skelton Show. Another was the Ed Sullivan Show. NBC's Dinah Shore Show, The Bob Hope Show, and The Howdy Doody Show had the best looking color pictures.

My son needed a consigner for his purchase of a used 2012 Hyundai Sonata last year, but they would not accept an out of state consigner. He had a bankruptcy back in 2010. But the Hyundai dealer was able to get him a 7.5% rate with $5000 down. He is doing much better now and is paying off the loan by making 2 full payments each month. I am proud that he is getting himself financially "repaired". His FICO score was 610, now it's 670.

When you tell a kid about this today, they don't believe you.
I will soon be needing a "stacked" washer/dryer combo made specifically for Condos (fits in my laundry closet). I know Sears carries them as does HHGregg. I've had some bad experiences with Sears, but what about HHGregg?
The GE combo I have has lasted 26 years with not one repair or adjustment needed. Admittedly, it does not get abused as I only do 12 washes a month - 4 linen washes, 4 towel/dishcloth/washcloth washes and 4 shirt/shorts/underwear washes. But it is getting to the point that a change is needed.
Any recommendations?
Those stacked washers and dryers are EXPENSIVE and it's because they are only made by one or two companies! We found that our recently!
Purchase.
They're having good sales now and into the near future. I know. We just bought 4 kitchen appliances
today at our local Lowes: all Whirlpool. Wife got whichever ones she liked appearance for
except dishwasher where picked a higher-priced Stainless model because it has a handle on
it instead of a recessed pull.
Got 10% by opening a Lowes charge card account (reopening old one from years ago) on top
of the sale prices.

Were engine oils essentially 10 weight without detergents? His engine has no oil filter. In the
old days, oil was changed every 1000 miles.
The "auto guy" on the call in show said to use 10W-40.

The computer in my car measures oil usage and viscosity. It tells me on my alert screen how many days or how many miles to the next A or B Service.
I just don't know how an engine can run 12 months without an oil change.

As an aside I keep hearing an advertisement for a local used car lot that says lifetime warranty on all their used cars. They say "if your engine breaks in the year 2030 we fix it free". They also offer free oil changes and inspections.
Wonder how they do that? Is this just a sneaky way to force an extra cost warranty on top of the car's price? Probably a list of conditions as long as your arm.
If it's legit that's one heck of a benefit.

Maybe if it isn't run at all. Had the Ford's oil changed at 3000 just before it went to bed. I think it was at 74%. (Synthetic) might drive it enough to change once a year
The Lincoln gets about 5000 miles before the indicator says 10%. (Synthetic) change it about twice a year.
The others get get it once a year or every 3000 (conventional)

Driver said I won an oil change from him for guessing what year the Mercury Monterey added the reverse tilt sliding rear window. So maybe I'll change my oil after 6 months this year. It's been so long since I've had an oil change on a car that I forget what I have to do - I guess just drive it to the Mercedes Dealer, huh!

That said I am wanting something new and fun. Part of me want a 2016 Convertible Camaro - V8 of course! Part of me wants the new 2017 Ford Raptor...Living in Western Washington the Raptor could be a lot of fun for exploring any part of the state, and the Camaro could be lots of fun 6-7 month of the year, it does not get too hot up here to put the top down.
Sigh....I guess this is more of a first world problem. I should simply enjoy what I have.

We are already 13 inches above normal for rainfall. I hope our trees can handle the heavy winds.
2021 Genesis G90
At least you just got rain. We got a foot of snow here yesterday and the forecasters totally blew it again, saying it would be a quick-moving system with rain or a little freezing rain here. There was a short period with a bit of ice pellet activity but them the thing turned to snow and it kept snowing for 12 hours, a good part of it sideways thanks to strong, cold north winds. We either don't pay enough for our weather forecasting services, or are paying way too much, not sure which. They seldom seem to get it correct. Yesterday was unusual in that they missed it totally until just before it happened.

As it crossed northern Broward County (where I live) we got some strong winds and heavy downpours, but not as bad as they forecasted.
There's another front expected next week. Usually we do not get these kinds of storms in winter, but this El Niño effect is the culprit all over North America.

It is so pleasant here most of the time, but, the weather can get pretty wild at times.

always comes down to spending your hard earned money on what you want to, otherwise, why are you bothering to make it?

Once Imgot my driver's license, I was cruising. My sisters were more TV peole than I was.
What my parents did have was a big console tv/stereo set up. Cranked Talking Heads, Cars, George Thourogood, etc out of it!
How many cars does a man need? I'd say at least 4!
First you need a comfy family sedan--for family, relatives, out on the town, grocery-getting, transporting children, etc.
Then you need a 4X4 pickup....just because. It can be a crew cab, for ski trips, etc--like the new Ridgeline.
Then you need a "fun" car---a fast and agile droptop or coupe, impractical, loud, scary fast or at least fast enough--2 seater preferred or 2+2 if you have to take the dog.
Then you need a "classic" car of some type, that you won't rely on but you keep around for tinkering, or as a hobby to enjoy with fellow enthusiasts.

Okay, then, we can swap the pickup for a fully off-road-capable SUV.
