I'm a dragon born 1940 and decided quite some time ago it is best to ask for contentment. Being content means you have enough, which means all your needs are met.
Always striving for more and more does not bring contentment. Look at the world's billionaires, most have to have more and more, or...
Many years ago I was a navy wife and we also had money allotted from the husband's pay, the problem was that the husband stated the amount for their wives. Mine, I found out after several years, was the lowest amount he could allot, while he could happily afford as much alcohol as he pleased...
I have enjoyed being able to read SDC every morning, whether there's controversy between members or agreements, we keep joining in. Some members are always ready with a joke, complaint or ideas on some "How to" a joke or sharing cooking, baking or whatever, there's always something worth reading...
It seem funny to see the message flash up "Ooh, just missed it" when I have only one or two numbers. The one time I had five numbers they were all over the place.
I won't give up checking, it has to happen some day, doesn't it?
I would prefer we didn't have to use gas at all. In my last place everything was electric so my bills were manageable. In this place the hot water heating and stove top is gas. I turned off the gas heating, which made a huge difference to my bills. I use electric devices like an airfryer and...
That is in the article about selling to indigenous people in areas where there is no internet, as well as having sold the plan to a deaf and mute person, although he/she would be able to use the text messaging and email if there is an internet presence.
These companies should be fined so hard, an amount that brings them to the possibility of ruin, that they would never try the dirty tricks ever again, with a special special fine for the top dog who has caused , or allowed, the situation to arise -- take away his/her fancy cars, yachts or other...
A lot of the old shows and films are getting a rerun, or are updated with younger actors, black and white films remade in colour.
Not sure if they are running out of ideas or, realising not everyone is into so much violence in films?
My phone tells me if a number is a "suspected spam" which obviously includes scams, if it's not a saved number it reads out the number which means I can answer or not. I usually let it ring a while before answering because a lot of spam/scam calls cut off after about four rings then if it goes...
A surprising notice from my bank told me that I needed to have 30 transactions for the month to avoid getting a fee.
Here I was thinking the less I spend the more I can ^try^ to save then the bank jumps in and takes a bite out of it anyway.
Greed IS NOT good!
I remember a time when putting your money into a bank account meant it built steadily the longer it was in the account, even if it just sat there. Now if you leave money in an account untouched it gets smaller and smaller because of hidden fees, even though the bank has no work to do with the...
