$102 for 2 round trip nonstop tickets from Raleigh-Durham to London. Just add $1,060 in taxes and fees! Feels like a great deal.
Worker: "Boss, the client says "tobaco" has two c's and not one" Boss: "Nope, it's just 1 C" Worker: "The client is insisting it's 2. Want me to fix the sign?" Boss: "Yeah go for it, there's an extra C in the back of the truck" Worker: "Great, fixed it. Client will be happy"
The replies to this post pretty much reinforce the thesis of the post. Try vacationing in most of Europe (not the northern third) during the summer and then tell me they have adequate air conditioning.

This feels pretty fair. 200k by 40 is only $10k saved per year since age 20. And that assumes 0% investment gains, so don't blame things on bad stock market.

This is not too surprising. Pay 2x as much for something that isn't as good as the thing it's imitating? Consumers said "no thanks"

Wild - it worked for me for a dummy trip to RDU airport. $16.50 for a spot 400 ft away from the Terminal 1 dropoff vs $23 for the Terminal 1 dropoff. Uber applied a 30% off coupon for the 1st trip but not the 2nd trip. Gonna exploit this going forward!

I added a $9 sack of deer corn to my Walmart shipping order as a filler item to get free shipping with $35 minimum. Now they are fedex overnighting a 50 pound sack of deer corn as a separate shipment. Glad I'm not paying the freight bill lol
Best breakdown of the tax changes in the OBBBA (One Big Beautiful Bill Act). Interesting tidbits: -expansion of qualifying expenses for 529's (professional credential prep and fees; K-12 misc expenses) -elimination of $600 Paypal/Venmo threshold for 1099-K
