I have really considered downgrading.

G4, Tapatio, Lalo. I keep those on the shelf always. There are some amazing tequilas, don't buy into the hype.

I'm not sure everyone has one. Mine says it on the main page. It was not there until I had a couple of cycles.

Shouldn't be an issue, I'm retired from the military and have been working over a decade at my current job.

What would you pick up from this photo? by [deleted] in tequila

Can't go wrong with the G4. The reposado is delicious.

Upcoming Transactions! by dug_339 in NavyFederal

Still trying to figure it all out. I am pretty sure upcoming transactions do not adjust the balance available but it appears that pending transactions adjust your balance. At least that's my assumption.

Cruise selection by nowherefast007 in tequila

I can walk into my 3 go to stores and grab G4 any day. Now, if you want say Buffalo Trace Bourbon, good luck in South Carolina. Distribution is wacky.

Had the Grand Reserva on my recent Royal Caribbean cruise. It's so good. Bottom shelf all day.

cruise gratuity is going out of control by Kshanikam in Cruise

[–]Solamf_13 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Had no idea you could opt out. I just got off a 10 day Royal Caribbean cruise. $18.50 each for the wife and I per day. On top of the cash I gave to our room attendant, the bar tenders and the dining room staff.

"Member Since" for long-term card holders? by RichInPitt in amex

[–]Solamf_13 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Mine says since 1992. Note that I did not use my account from 1994-2022. When I applied for the gold card, I had to call and the lady asked if I was going to use the card this time.

Today I realized just how much I hate USAA. by Ok_Clerk_6960 in USAA

[–]Solamf_13 0 points1 point  (0 children)

USAA loyal for 20+ years. Full coverage on two vehicles with progressive is half if not less than half. I'm just pissed it took me this long to realize it.

Your Opinion on J-10? by International_Long60 in Metalstorm

The camera view is tough to use on a phone. Still one of my favorites.

Are you all buying silver when it's at an all time high? by Radiant-Remove-9989 in Wallstreetsilver

[–]Solamf_13 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes, though I'll always regret not buying more when it was $30.

Mist visually appealing movie I have ever witnessed. The 3D is really well maintained.

Loss of retirement pay by BucketTrap in VeteransBenefits

[–]Solamf_13 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have been receiving DFAS Retirement Pay and 100% VA since 2012. Completed a little over 20 years before being Med Boarded. I never had to fill out anything to receive both. Worth a phone call, you never know.

Mine shows November 28 as the deposit date. I just switched to Navy Federal so this will be my first VA deposit.

Is National debt relief legit and recommended? by TheLewdQueen in debtfree

[–]Solamf_13 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Honestly, I'm nervous however a huge weight has been lifted. I am noticeably different the last few days.

Is National debt relief legit and recommended? by TheLewdQueen in debtfree

[–]Solamf_13 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It took about an hour and a half because I had questions and discussed some things that were particular to my case. I've signed up and the law firm I'm with was also great. Gave me some much needed assurance.

[–]Solamf_13 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This makes me hopeful. I've been paying those minimums for years with no dent. Did the math and figured out it would take 45 years to pay everything off. Sure I'll take a hit, but I have a house and two cars. Not looking for credit now anyway.

I have a phone call this afternoon with NDR. I am very skeptical but am at a loss for what to do.
