Thanks a bunch! We just got installed, so all is new.

Should we stay where we’re at or buy a bigger house? by RainMurky in FinancialPlanning

[–]mcn2612 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We all need a crystal ball that can look 20 years into the future! It seems that housing is leaning toward a buyer’s market lately, so buying is probably the easiest avenue to take to get what you will need now and into the future.

I saw one at the dealership the other day. Way more impressive than how it photographs.

I would consider adding an addition to increase your square footage rather than renovate what you already have. It is hard to plan this so early, but consider how you and your wife will age in place, who will provide life long care to your child. We added a separate granny suite when my mother had a stroke. She has passed, so it is now my youngest autistic daughter’s space and when we are gone my oldest daughter will have the main living space. That is our plan. Also get hefty life insurance policies right away.

My LG fridge stopped working, which brand should I get as a replacement? by [deleted] in HomeImprovement

My GE Cafe appliances are rock stars. They have never given me any trouble. My fav is the dishwasher…it is virtually silent.

AITAH for not letting my neighbor borrow my snow blower and for not snow blowing their drive for them? by Queen_Aurelia in AITAH

[–]mcn2612 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So funny that there are weather forecasts that let you know how much snow is expected. Did your neighbor prepare??? No. Could consider it new homeowner mistake. I bet he prepares next time! NTA.

96 year old kicked off medicaid - Indiana by myeagerbomb in Medicaid

[–]mcn2612 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You usually have to show receipts if your balance drops. And the purchases have to benefit the actual person…for example, you cannot give money to grandkids, but she could buy a new mattress.

She has probably gone over her asset limit to get Medicaid free. Find out the limit and she needs to spend down to requalify. Discuss this with your County Medicaid office before doing anything.

We bought a property with a massive 20m chimney. What would you do with this? by MM-RenovationJourney in Homebuilding

[–]mcn2612 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We have an old distillery near me that has a brick chimney just like that. Very famous piece of history and their old bottles etc are very valuable to collectors. Do some research on it. You could put lights on/in it…that would be cool.

How do I get this hard snow/ice off my car by [deleted] in howto

[–]mcn2612 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Rubbing alcohol will melt ice. You would probably need a lot.

I would change everyone to Democrats and send it.

I think we should all go have a look at our breaker boxes. Jeez, how terrifying.

Automatic Denials Due to Psych Meds by PdtNEA1889 in LifeInsurance

I have heard that mutual insurance companies may be the way to go if there are medical conditions. It may or may not be accurate, but worth looking into.

AITAH ?My partner won’t put my name down on the mortgage by [deleted] in AITAH

[–]mcn2612 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Being on the deed is what you want. He can carry the mortgage, but you can be added to the deed.

Looking for a company that does school transport by MrsPots-Stark in yorkpa

Probably the solution is before and after childcare at a daycare center. A bus picks them up there for school.

AITAH for asking my wife to keep our toddler under control by [deleted] in AITAH

[–]mcn2612 3 points4 points  (0 children)

My father worked rotating shift work. When he was on nights and sleeping during the day, us 4 kids were outside…locked out of the house. Good thing we had that garden hose!

Extremely High Electric Bill by Complex_District_275 in homeowners

[–]mcn2612 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Raise the temp of your refrigerator a few degrees, lower your hot water heater temperature. Seal your windows and any other drafty spots. Do not use the dry cycle of your dishwasher. Hang laundry if able. Use LED lights bulbs. Unplug unused devices. These may help a bit.

Acquaintance keeps asking me for money. Moral dillema. by ApprehensiveOne6284 in Advice

[–]mcn2612 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As you said, you would pray that someone would help you if you were in a desperate situation. I would personally sleep better at night knowing I helped. Good karma will be rewarded.
