We’re 2 for 2 on bad luck with appliances right when our baby is coming home. For the first, our furnace broke at the start of winter the same weekend he was born. And now for the second, our dryer broke three days before he came home from the NICU (anyone with kids knows

I’m at my best when I have a good balance between busyness and time for myself. Too much of one will have me slipping into a rut.

My coworker is selling his rental property to buy more bitcoin. Crazy? Or genius?

If you’re disciplined, you absolutely should put all purchases on credit cards.
