    Ad inducement to sign in sux

    sometimes ya gotta hit a button and do what someone offers as advice and try or just say bye on the forum if too darn hard to wander the internet, could be for some, but it is what it is for each of us. Come or go. Learn and change or perish it all as one wants to the wayside. In the end, hey...

    Week 1 lessons learned!

    great post. your first one is key. Life on road vs. being on vacay :) vacay we spend, heck we deserve it but real life on a budget if on the road is a real thing too so this is a vital issue. At home even I find 'free fun things to do' to save bucks, one can do that on the road also. Sounds...

    I hit like on your post but this one is truly a big 'what if' for each individual and like Bullfrog said above, debt on losing what little ya might have with med bills is a real thing. And of course the ultimate...loss of life thru no health care one can afford or have access. but that...

    Cool. but SO MANY variables here that are astronomical to all but one key thing he says at the back end of it is take ALL you can from the tricks/tips and more that will come to you and see if they suit you, fit you, can one do them as needed? etc. so that is good it is very open ended. I...

    Wowza. we don't do much ever. just a good meal. might eat out at restaurant too and have them do the work :) for us we are the type that don't focus on the food kinda....more exact, I hate the kitchen. Never a chef type :) So any avoidance is key for me and family has learned to live with...

    Having been there before.....what was it like seeing it again?

    absolutely everything changes, and alot! unless controlled thru say, parks or historical sites and more that are impervious to 'dramatic' change. Grew up Freehold NJ. Knew it well. Apple orchards, farms, small town and just what it was back in the 70s. Went back. Farms gone, ALL homes...

    Goodwill is not just local sell ever. It is a big corp. just a blurb: What doesn’t sell at the outlets is then sent to Goodwill Auctions, where huge “mystery” bins full of items are sold for as little as $35 each.

    I so agree. Many posts one reads has no relation to our lives but if one reads that one sentence in it 'might spark' with us and we think, hmm, ok, I can see me moving in that direction cause it suits me. I found tons of advice that 'suited me' and my 'life' but when I started reading I...
