    Retirement Financial Planing

    We have saved all our lives and don't spend what we make. Told the wife's Mom to spend her money we don't need it but she to didn't do that, so we got more when she passed. In a couple weeks we are seeing an attorney to setup a revocable trust

    Retirement Financial Planing

    Agree start as soon as you can, even $10 a month will add up over 30 to 40 years The issue I'm running into now is who to trust to execute our wishes. Can do a firm but they can charge up to 10% of the total. Getting family involved they see the money and next thing you know they are at each...

    Retirement Financial Planing

    I'm with Schwab and finding setup a DAF is best done with Daffy because this is all straight stocks, no bit coin or other things. Need to do an In-Kind transfer to Daffy. Setup DAF at Daffy and then do transfer. Schwab and Vanguard charge higher fees and Daffy

Get up at 530 and thermostat shows 77* and we keep it at 75*. Find the outside unit fan nor compressor is running. Text with my HVAC buddy and in short time...

    Diagnose where water is coming from

    Being that it happened after winterizing, it might to be as other say the cor plug but in most cases the block side plugs pop before the back ones. Another thing might be the power steering cooler hose, someone might have forgotten to tighten the clamp

    Early 2000's Rinker

    Sold my 1995 Rinker 232 a couple years ago and hull was as solid as the day I bought it. It lived 90% of it's life on a trailer which makes a big difference. Any boat can be good or bad, all depends on how it was taken care of

    2003 Crownline oil reservoir fitting

    Folks are paying up to $750 to replace a $20 part, and they fail often (150hr) Leads me to believe Merc doesn't care much about customers, and knowing this will probably happen again

    2015 bass buggy 18dlx fuel tank

    One of the hoses should go to a vent fitting mounted on the outside. Probably small and have a drip loop. Find that line a trace, could even remove the hose end and blow out. Around hear we can get mud dobbers fill the opening with mud
