My wife has never had electronic shifting so I set up my Propel for her to try. She said, "I could just ride this."

She is really waffling. Until I see her put a deposit down, it’s not a done deal and even then, the shop said they won’t make her take it when it comes in because they can sell it easily.
Its an outrageous amount of money but she’s earned it.

We are not big on the idea that parents must leave their kids an inheritance. We tried to give them the fundamentals to succeed (whatever that may look like to them), and the rest is up to them.

This got me wondering in how many different states I have had to do that. I have come up with 5 so far.

I was told many years ago not to finance your children’s retirement with your own.

My wife is going to inherit something like 100 acres of prime semi - suburban real estate in central CT. Current market value is something north of 7 million. I wish they’d sell some and get something nice, but they’re just not wired that way. My MIL drives a 20 year old Ram 3/4 ton diesel and while they could easily afford a new truck, “I like this one”
