davidrmoran : No need to send billing, it's the amount that caught my attention!
@catch22 : You forgot to mention Coach Howard (MI) & his performance for Sportmanship of the year award. His second performance was ***** !!
Actual I was using that post to gain some info & inform Dish customers to be VERY careful if they p…
I was hoping to get more views. Are you the new sheriff ?
How's the weather in MICHIGAN ?
I figured I would hear from someone, but I see it didn't get flagged.
Have a nice weekend, Derf
Thanks @Crash : I'm waiting to hear back from Dish. Appears they record every call so they can check on the conversations. I forgot to have them check on recent conversation with billing & was told I could get the price I thought was okay.

I believe BBF has made a point. When the price of bananas gets to high what happens ? As they ripen they lower the price & hope people buy them to make bread or they rot & get thrown out! Risky business in deed.
Series I bonds. Let me know…
If a few more statues are removed the problem will be fixed ?! Just kidding while grinding my teeth !! Part of the history of this great country , be it good or bad !
My $.02 , Derf
@Crash ; Thanks for reply. TV + internet close to $2 Bills !!!! Her phone & mine paid by others. I did gather some info on Roku & others but didn't follow through. Time to reconnect I guess. Forgot to ask, how many TVs can be on at the sa…
" People- Ignorant and Proud of It"
I can attest to that statement. While driving through Houston @ 70 + MPH on a quite Sunday morning, I had to navigate a smoker ( grill ) & a coaster wagon in my lane of traffic.
I guess the drivers didn't …
@hank : So you've been dipping & not telling, "to many irons in the fire" !? ARKK does look interesting being off that much. I'm more or less caught in the headlights !!
Flip the switch please, Derf
A form of timing the market or having to much at risk ? Only (YOU) can answer that question ? I didn't read the link , just my $.02 !
Trying to stay calm, Derf
@msf : thanks for the link. I remember last year (?) when oil went negative. You had to pay someone to take your barrels , at least on paper.
Will gas hit $4.00 a gallon in your neck of the woods , in some areas it already has ? !!
As the line…
If you have taught your players to play to the end of the game ,don't become bent out of shape when the other team calls TO to "organize the second stringers.
Mr. Howard has no college coaching experience and I'm thinking this played into the situat…
@Ben : "but not until shareholders pay 1/3 of the expense to make the change."
And who will pay the other 2/3 ?! Shareholders one way or the other to my way of thinking !
FWIW , Derf
@MikeM : " We trail because humans tend to be undisciplined and move in and out of funds at the most inopportune times."
I'll be the first two admit to the above sentence as it's rained down on me more than once ! I'm currently holding to much cas…
Mona, look up TDF retirement & their 2020 TDF. You could use one or the other or split the two. I believe the 2015 TDF is close to rolling into the Retirement fund. You will get tips also. I haven't checked Life Strategy allocation. The 34% ca…
From above post :
"A number of posters have referenced possibly investing 100% in their chosen benchmark fund. Not a bad idea. "
Had I done this , put 50 or 100 % in a TDF at Vanguard, I would have blown my fuse do to the LARGE cap gains that were …
@newgirl : How much risk are you able to handle & will this be a long or short term hold ?
If I left any thing out, please add as this will add to possible replies.

Two drinks in & I have to question how TBLQX can be called a 2010 retirement fund when inception date is 2021 ? Thinking they looked at other funds (retirement) & determined what they held & made their fund up from a look see ?
Can s…
