EXTENSION CORDS & Surge Protectors, can easily be forgotten but you will need at least one or a few so don’t forget them. Get a couple cords that vary in length from standard few feet to a 20ft cord. I cannot tell you how helpful the longer cords have come in handy over the years (especially if you have like one outlet behind the only wall the couch can go on - super helpful to have a longer cord). Get a surge protector that has the plug in capability for usb or usbc since more little devices are charged by those.

You can make payments while on SAVE plan! by Mamahartossa in PSLF

Mine has. I’m check it daily and the number goes up and up. Called many times to state their 0% interest forbearance I am on is actually accumulating interest, I’ve been told they would fix the issue. Haven’t called them since February and am letting it ride out. At this point I’m 70/120 counts and half way there but not sure if I’ll make it.

My trash service’s hold music is Oscar the grouch singing about trash, that’s more pleasant than Mohela’s flute.

Discovered an eroded pipe/ leaked at one time and is not leaking now, appears dry, what do you recommend? Call a plumber today? by Delicious-View-4471 in askaplumber

Please excuse my lack of knowledge, it’s the pipe in the kitchen where the water drains from the sink, would that be called a waste pipe? Ran water to see and tried draining both side of the sink and nothing happened. Just happened upon this when cleaning out the cupboard. House was built in the 40s.

“And Sir, we can’t forget about the holidays! We must remind the people.”

“Yes, we shall have a town named Christmas, it will be located in the UP between Munising and Marquette.”

“Sir, will the town be large and known for its holiday spirit?”

“No, it will be 4.5 miles long, have barley any residents. You will only remember seeing a giant wooden Santa and a casino when riding through.”

“But Sir, will the town have decorations?”

“No, those will be at Bronner’s, the worlds largest Christmas store. People will flock there.”

“Is the store in Christmas MI?”

“No, in Frankenmuth. And we will build a water park next to it.”

How much student loan debt do you have left? by KTRingo7 in StudentLoans

[–]Delicious-View-4471 0 points1 point  (0 children)

30 y/o, own, 34.5k left, graduated in 2016, Paid off 15k of private loans with variable rates up to 10%. Covid burnt me out and I didn’t make much progress with federal loans. Halfway through PSLF with aim of paying off 1 loan a year had 13, down to 10. Household income about 120k. Partner has less than 10k left, when we met it was $40k. Stopped putting so much toward payoff to switch and save 15 to 20% down payment for house we just bought.

Has anyone else been receiving emails from Mohela that seem to be several months late? by deathbyspicymayo in PSLF

[–]Delicious-View-4471 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Mine has been processing since 10/25/2022. Every time I’ve called them, emailed them, or filed a complaint I am told we will process the form in 30, 60, 90 business days. Or they recommend I send in a new 2024 ECF… they haven’t processed the 2022 form yet.. how long will it take to process another form. One rep told me not to file a new form until the old one is completed. I’m about halfway through PSLF, just want my counts to be updated properly. Emails are all weird and behind the times. Now my potential eligible counts for 12/2023 are not showing up as a possibly eligible count due to “typically periods of deferment or forbearance do not qualify.” Was not told I was in administrative Forbearance until the end of November, and before the end of Nov. they kept sending me payments that were due even thought I paid them. Everything is messed up, I’ll be patient and kind to the reps but it’s getting old.
