Agree with @Old_Joe re: the taste of French press coffee but they are a bit messy to clean at my igloo. My septic system balks at the grounds so I only use one in the unfrozen time of the year when I can hose off the innards onto the yard and garden.
I wonder how much of that "average" is pulled up by the bazillionaires. What defines the average household anyway? I live in a rural community where I highly doubt more than a handful is pulling down $284K/yr or even $184K/yr. $84K/yr maybe some.
Admittedly I did not connect the dots very well. My opinion is that the smart money folks are possibly selling stocks and parking the proceeds in MM funds while the smaller investor keeps buying stocks and funds as the magnificent 7 keeps dragging t…

@Derf - well the state where the flow begins (MN) has been suffering through draught to severe draught for the past year and a half so there's that. People from states on line down from there can fill in the precipitation info from there. It helps t…
Quite amazing when you consider the all across the country the GOP was accusing the Democrats of stealing elections. What a mess of a party the GOP has become.
With an average surface temperature of -80F (-60 C) that'll be a hard pass for me. I know a bunch of people I'd like to send in my place however. One Way.
