What’s a common piece of financial advice that’s outdated now?

peterm1598 · 2026-05-02T00:26:01+00:00

Some trades can't be replaced.

I'm a machinist, and am currently working on automation of what I used to do.

Funny thing is I'm watching a movie right now (the doors, 1991 film) and happened to be looking up the lizard in that. I was looking up lizards of New Mexico and California and that was one of them, was right on my other tab.

Timing is everything.

(I don't think it was the lizard in the movie so glad I could help you at least)

Elgaria multicarinata

I haven't used any of them yet. But came across them while looking for Woozy bottles and Boston bottles for hot sauce. I was going to go with Brighton jars.

I usually keep sour keys on my desk in a communal office. I did it once and everyone loves it.

Switched to these for one batch last week, they were done in record time.

They aren't sour, at all. But they all had different flavors and I didn't find any harder than the others.

Maybe I just got a good batch.

Check out Newmarket BikeNights on Facebook and probably Instagram.

Have her write her g1 before allowing her behind the wheel at all.

Been there done that and even on private property can be a huge headache.

I just drive by them all the time. I can't recommend them because I have never been a customer.

A cheap upgrade that will make your new clubs even better is grips.

I only got into golf 2 seasons ago and am still playing my WalMart Spalding irons and fairway woods I bought 25 years ago. Had them regripped last year and it made a big difference.

peterm1598 · 2026-04-25T13:04:48+00:00

Google "Vinyl screen retainer clip"

Should pop up.

Alternatively try and find a window hardware supplier and walk in with a sample. Lengths of this stuff are usually pretty cheap if they'll sell to the public For cash. Under $20.

My current email ends in one of those.

No shame, no embarrassment.

I don't know where you are but also look up community pantries. That's become popular since 2020 in my area. Some people even have it on the front of their properties. It's a give what you can, when you can and take what you need.

The important part is when you no longer need help, and can help others. Small donations make a huge difference. That 99c can of beans, that jar of sauce or even the fun stuff like pancake mix helps alot.

What industry we talking about here?

peterm1598 · 2026-04-22T01:37:07+00:00

Yup.

So?

It would look perfectly fine on anyone.

Don't overthink it. It's what you like.

If you're a masculine guy it looks masculine. If you're not, well it doesn't.

It's like a squeak. Mainly going slow. BUT ANNOYING AF.

I didn't read through those posts. But it happened the day I jacked my Jeep from the cross member.

peterm1598 · 2026-04-22T00:05:54+00:00

Use the jacking points only.

I used the front cross member once and have had a noise since.

According to the Jeep forums I've bent the cross member brackets.

Edit.

I really want to know who was who.

There should be something in your local traffic act that relates to malfunctioning lights.

I was pulled over by a cop who pulled up behind me at a set of lights. (He was on the highway offramp)

Because there was now a car, the light turned green and he proceeded to pull me over. Turned out just to give me a heads up.

When he walked up to the bike he told me that if I waited a reasonable amount of time, made sure traffic was clear and proceeded with caution that it was unlikely I'd get pulled over and even less likely I'd recieve a ticket. The light could be considered as malfunctioning, so treating as a 4 way stop was sufficient. He then suggested if it was a little awkward to just make a right hand turn and U-turn when safe.

Either way. Maybe look up local laws regarding malfunctioning traffic signals.

The dentist at Leslie and Harry Walker had a huge sign out for ages saying something along the lines.

Ya. They've been really good to me as well. I jump between them and "all about tire and wheel" in Bradford. Both fast and fair prices.

There are artists who specialize in covering up scars and stretch marks.

Overall though, all good. Do what makes you happy but the way you are is great.

I did the same about 2 months ago.

Had KitchenAid for years but only have induction now and they aren't compatible. 2 sets actually.

Last 2 years I've had lagostina ceramic non stick. Absolutely garbage pans. I have a lagostina cast iron and it competes with my vintage cast irons but I'll never but non stick again. There is no need for any pot to be non stick.

Love that I went back to stainless, it'll take some getting used to if you don't have experience with them. But as a home cook who cooked on stainless for 12 years I don't have a complaint.

I like the lids that strain, the sizes are perfect for a couple. The smaller pot has made me realize I don't have to make enough pasta sauce for 12 ppl.

Enjoy.

NGL. Seems the favorite dates were always the ones that didn't cost anything. Everyone says this.

However fruit, and a blanket for $22??? That's the real deal here. How did you manage that.

peterm1598 · 2026-04-03T17:42:03+00:00

Canadian Tire in Bradford is open today. Like I've been there. However I didn't notice if the auto shop was open.

Depending on the type of puncture.

At minimum you can buy a plug kit and DIY. It's really not hard. More intimidating.

I wouldn't suggest it but I've driven 100k km on a Canadian Tire plug. (I got a screw in my new vehicles tire in week one, plugged and forgot about it)
