Just saw that an auto loan is currently cheaper – interest rate wise – than buying a home. Specifically – 5.85 percent v. 7.09 percent. WTAF(udge)? What sense does this make oh none at all glad we cleared that up … A young woman on the Toks of Tik confided that her grandmother gave her …

Hot Deep Fried Grease
Discovered a wonderful new kitchen appliance. A little about me … I like tools, and guns, and trucks, and dogs. And Half, most of the time. And theKid, always. Anyhoo, theKid offers up ideas on the regular because … y’know … kid, and most of those ideas involve spending when I should not but can’t …
Oh, Donny Boy
Whelp, Half predicted it way back in 2016 … said Drump was going to be a 2x prez. I, of course, pooh-poohed the notion, said America ain’t that crazy. I also said if Half and other half did not breed prior to fourscore less eight then there would be no offspring. Shows you/me what I …
Look At The Blood!
Half called me “Multiple Miggs” the other day. Methinks some would find that offensive. I, however, thought it was hilarious (“I bit my wrist …”) There is truly someone for everyone. Unless, of course, you are an MF. Saw not one but two different reports of DomVi between semi-lesbian couples, and methinks it begs the …
OK, so …
… the Montgomery Boat Brawl, c. August 5, 2023. Am I wrong for enjoying this to the extent that I am/did/will forever? People were harmed, peace was disturbed, arrests were made, and I laughed, and laughed, and laughed. Rather than a shot across the bow, a jaunty flip o’ the cap. The Ice Cream Social …
Nepotism, Cronyism, and Favoritism … the Modern Trifecta
theKid participated in a sports camp/competition recently. Results were not as hoped. However. theKid performed quite well, achieving top ten status in most of the events, and top twenty status in the others. For a point of reference, there was roughly maybe 300-500 participants, skill levels from newbie to vet. Anyhoo, theKid had one flub …

One Bed, One Bank
Saw a podcast clip that encouraged spouses to share finances. Maritals should share one bed and one bank account. The guest and the host both thought this was a basic, seemed amazed that folks could disagree. Nice, in theory. But people don’t live theoretical, they live actual, and methinks that might work for some but …
Five Minutes v. $5M
Well that’s disturbing. Someone posed the question: “Would you take $5M (dollars) or five minutes with Jesus?” Over(under)whelmingly, folks asked chose the cash. Every single one of the three MFs, and one of the two dudes. Sigh. Sign ‘O the Times. Personally, I value eternal salvation over dallah-dallah bills, yooalll … but that’s me. {Matthew 6:24} …
If Not, Don’t; If Yes, More! More! More!
Half and theKid returned from their travels, and I must say – family is everything. Unless it isn’t. Methinks if I had not succumbed to marriage, and if Half had not insisted on being fruitful and multiplying, I believe I would not have missed what I did not have. Let me explain (or not … …

Hungry Monkey
After this month, I will have another 90 days before I have completely fed a monkey while simultaneously starving it to death. Yay, me. The point? If I, with my preternaturally irresponsible financial self, can get serious and consistent about paying off debt, then absolutely anyone else can, too. Now, it only took getting sued, …
