It’s an approximately 8’ long stockless anchor made of solid steel I suppose.
Use it as a counterbalance for your trailer?

Best advice I ever got from the owner of my auto service provider is to replace the battery every 3 years as the average life of an auto battery in the in the Deep South is 3 1/2 years. Never been stranded or inconvenienced with a “dead” battery in 20+ years I’ve followed this practice. This article helps explain why some auto batteries die sooner than others Why Batteries Die. Driving habits play a significant role in battery life.
I do this as well, every 3 years (or even slightly before). The incremental cost is small compared to dealing with a dead battery at an inconvenient time.
Lows in the 60s for a couple days, is it time!?!? Or keep waiting for first real front?
Last few satellite frames look like it’s starting to get sheared.
Found this on the new funds:
That’s a relief.
Has a similar question about the two separate accounts. One for contributions and one for the enhancements.

Cat 3 into the MS/AL border on this run.
Finally got my email this morning saying that I had Auto-renewed. Would make sense to send those before Oct 1 and save a bunch of stress and phone calls.
The Overpayment Contractor Scam
This targets tree removal businesses and results in random homeowners' trees being mistakenly cut down.
• The Setup: A scammer finds a home for sale on Zillow and pretends to be the new out-of-town buyer. They text a real tree service to cut down a major tree on the property immediately.
• The Trap: They send a fake or stolen check for more than the job's price, asking the tree company to wire the "accidental overpayment" back to them.
• The Damage: The tree company cuts down an innocent person's century-old tree before realizing the check bounced and the "owner" was a fraudster.

Sounds like Oman Air did the right thing. Curious how he hired on with FlyDubai. Sounds like they didn’t dig in too deeply on why wage was moved to an admin role.

Beautiful tree and probably worth more than the house. That sucks.

They just sent out an email at 2:47 stating Kickoff is set for 6:55 p.m.... could have easily paused hitting send until later tonight if they were concerned
I heard they are moving it to 6:53pm.
I mean technically my 17mpg Sequoia is in this statistic, but not sure anyone would view that as Hybrid/EV even though it technically is.

This can already be done through a 529 account and a qualified transfer to a Roth down the line.
Yeah, capped at something like $30k.
The Trump accounts will probably be near $100k when I convert them. Plus if they don’t use their full 529s, I’ll stack more on top.
Each of my kids got $250 from Mike and Susan Dell. They don’t get the govt money but free money is free money. Plus they’ll have a head start on retirement when I convert their accounts to Roths at 18.
Probably popping uppers before the game

I think we are just witnessing the collapse of the old (state) superpowers. Just like Europe gave way to the US. California/NY are beginning to give way to traditional sections of the country.
Let it happen. There’s already been a massive move to TX. The thought leaders of our time (Elon, for example) are no longer wasting money in the political wastelands.
