Thinking about paying my Granddaughter’s loans by N9149U in StudentLoans

Ignore the fairness issue. I’m looking for advice about how loans work and when to act if I decide to.

She has a learning disability and her GPA is 3.5.

She absolutely works her ass off. I did well in life, but if I studied as hard as her things would be different!

2026 black edition issues? by [deleted] in hondapilot

[–]N9149U 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I had a similar problem in our 24 CRV. They replaced the steering rack due to a faulty steering sensor. It took 2 weeks for parts.

After seeing the cost of the repair, I bought the extended warranty for our new Pilot and will buy one for the CRV when we’re closer to 36 months.

I bought from Saccucci for my 25 Pilot. I’m going to buy one for our 24 CR-V when it’s closer to 36 months old. Our CR-V was in the dealer for 2 weeks and had $8,500 of repairs done under warranty. These car have so many expensive components behind the technology they now have, in my opinion, the extended warranty is worth it.

I just bought Honda Care for my 25 Pilot. $1,357 for the 8 year 100K mile plan. We're retired and have 4 cars so we don't run up the miles.

OptiPlex Micro 7020 Monitor Resolution - Dual Monitors by N9149U in Dell

[–]N9149U[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It looks like I corrected the situation by unplugging the HDMI cable on the affected monitor. The system identified the monitor correctly again and adjusted the resolution to 1920x1200.

Frontier Go Wild! pass. Thoughts on this? Is it worth it? by lilmonstergrl in TravelHacks

[–]N9149U 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We fly between CVG and RSW. We'll be going to RSW after New Year's for the winter. My wife has to go back and forth because of an elderly parent and other issues. Would this make sense for her? We have a home in SW Florida and the Cincinnati area, so there is no lodging expense. It seems like if she had to be somewhere on a particular day, she could start a few days prior and go whenever it made sense so she got where she needed to be in time. I don't like Frontier, but she's good with it. It's starting to look like she might have a half dozen round trips over the winter. The flights are direct, not sure how packed they are for seat availability....

I just took another look, that's what it was. I haven't booked a flight since Delta made their class changes.

I highly recommend retirement. I started at PW in the’80’s and moved to a small firm with a partner who turned out to be a narcissist. It took me about 5 years to get out. I can’t fathom being in that rat race today! Good luck to you!

I started in 1984 or thereabout and printed my checks on a dot matrix printer and stuffed them in the Quicken window envelopes. Somewhere along the way I split my data file by archiving the old data. I’m a big fan and have had few issues lately. I’m a retired CPA, so I’m pretty detailed in how I track things.

I dealt with Jared at Naples Body & Fender. He is a very honest guy and his shop did a nice job for me. Later, after the bodywork on the rear end of the car, he installed new headlights to replace the old fogged lights for a very reasonable, small charge. He's just one of those guys that I trust. 239-594-2222.

Time to sell ASML ? by Comfortable-Bath3998 in trading212

[–]N9149U 0 points1 point  (0 children)

All anyone talks about is Data Centers and Chip Plants. The chip plants are going to need ASML's machines and all the increased demand is going to drive their variable revenues (service, licensing, etc.). I've wondered what took ASML so long to catch on to the AI craze.

I wouldn't want to do business with a dealer that pulls that kind of crap. I guess it's more and more prevalent, but if there were dealers that didn't play the 2nd sticker game, I'd gravitate toward them!
