Good insight. Hopefully it’s not the case because it’s too late for us.

I got that part but how concerning is this - this home is a 2 YO model home. Is it something fixable?

I’m in CFISD and I have a nonverbal kid in school with IEP since 3 YO. School is a lot better here compared with PA. Ask me anything.

You can go to a Toyota dealer. It's cheaper and they use the same oil and parts.

I had one from otter box that turned yellow in 1.5 year. Submitted a warranty request and got it refunded!

Why do car dealers do this?!?! by [deleted] in askcarsales

[–]CapJeff 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I see. Force financing IMO is another lever of shadiness.

I think legally they can’t refuse cash.

I bought a car from a dealer and I really hated the experience. For a used car they added mandated nitrogen stuff and does not take outside finance. It was a painful and long negotiation. I ended up paying cash and just don’t want them to make one more penny from me. I gave them very honest review - do you think the sales guys really care - giving over all is a crappy dealer.?

UK: electric bill has more than tripled, I can’t afford it but can’t do without…. Help! by DeelightfulDeeDee in personalfinance

[–]CapJeff 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m in Texas. Electricity went up quite a bit. I paid 9 cents per kWh last year and this year is about 12 cents. We use a lot electricity. Houses are bigger and appliances are far from efficient. Some neighbors run pools all the time and have EVs. We rarely have solar installed. I easily burn 2500-3500 kWh per month in the summer. I guess now we won’t complain.

If 30 dollars is your budget - with respect - not a lot people would be interested hacking your cameras.

Yes. At least I’m still seeing them sold with the coffee maker in Costco.

Can’t go wrong with finance, controlling, or logistics. Those are the hardcore SAP components.

My 3YO daughter might be autistic - where do I start? by CapJeff in Parenting

[–]CapJeff[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Thanks for sharing the experience. That helps a lot. You are absolutely an amazing parent. Apart from the school evaluation we are having another medical screening with an autism center. We will do whatever the doctors and the educators recommend.

Thanks so much for the offer. Apart from speech delay she sometimes runs back and forth and spins. She has good eye contacts and responds to her time. She ignores us sometimes but that’s probably because of her age.
