Median boomer retirement account $144,000
Realized this same thing when my dad passed three years ago & mom had already paid off a couple outstanding balances that she was, in no way, attached to. -
Median boomer retirement account $144,000
Looking at this as a variety of things but getting students more involved in their local communities through legitimate volunteer opportunities; understanding & engaging in local communities & governments, greater education on civic responsibilities / issues / duties; ethics coursework of some... -
Median boomer retirement account $144,000
Good on ya....as was I during my near decade in Florida....unfortunately, there has been a shunning of this career path by many in education & a negative stigma attached to choosing that path. When entire segments of the education system, government, & society in general repeat the mantra to... -
Median boomer retirement account $144,000
1. Hoping to have a rough version mostly completed by the end of the year. 2. Definitely second this thought....heck, probably 30-50% of the 'teachers' I worked with should not have been teaching but that's what happens when the perception of teachers as legitimate professionals is so poorly... -
Median boomer retirement account $144,000
Such an awesome idea & definitely something that I would hope catches on across the country. BTW - A guy like Mike Rowe would be a phenomenal Secretary of Education! The idea that a college degree is the only way to achieve success is such a terrible line we keep telling every-single-high... -

Absolutely agree....your adult refresher classes should definitely be in there, too, possible stipulation of any divorce. -
Median boomer retirement account $144,000
Just my two cents - Basic financial literacy, basic investing, compounding interest, depreciating assets, credit cards, loans & interest rates, etc. should all be part of the high school curriculum in some capacity....however, that would eliminate the abundant debtor mentality that pervades far... -
Coronavirus Coronavirus: In-Iowa General Discussion (Not Limited)
Short answer - basically business as usual with certain modifications but overall quite normal & extremely well handled but they have been very proactive about the severity of it all & the need to get testing done quickly & early. Koreans tend to overreact, so that may have helped initially... -
Coronavirus Coronavirus: In-Iowa General Discussion (Not Limited)
So happy to be living in Korea right now....and so disappointing to see the stark contrast in responses around the world. -
Your Comedian Mount Rushmore
First four that popped into my mind: Carlin, Chappelle, Burr, & Black Others worth consideration, depending on mood: Louis C.K., Attell, Gaffigan, Rock, Tosh, Patton Oswald, Jim Jefferies.... -
[Class of '20] Anthony Smith Commits!
He comes from what has been a perennial powerhouse over at least the past couple decades (I lived about 40 miles away in Tampa), so he has been immersed in a winning culture, has consistently faced top FL talent, & has been the recipient of strong coaching. Unfortunately, Lakeland / Polk County... -

What to Do in Orlando
When I lived there 15+ years ago, downtown (Wall Street area) used to be a great place. Depending on how long people are in town, I definitely second the NASA excursion. Better yet, take a few extra days & stay out on the Space Coast. Lots of great beach towns - New Smyrna, Cocoa, Melbourne... -
Pet Insurance
Just an observation & I may get blasted for this but having spent the past decade living & working overseas in various countries, I think about what a huge difference $25/month would make in the daily lives of those living in the developing world....yet, that same amount to us is a drop in the... -

2020 Football Targets
Crazy, I spent a decade teaching & coaching at Plant H.S. in Tampa. Since 2005, they have been an absolute juggernaut, winning four State Titles in six years & consistently in the championship hunt....that said, they got absolutely smoked last night for their first loss in district (i.e... -
Amtrak travel advice
I hear that argument & won't disagree based on the current Amtrak system (time aspect) & certainly understand & appreciate the size issue but look at what China (for all its faults) has been able to accomplish in the past decade or so. Successfully integrating high-speed rail into their... -
Amtrak travel advice
Every time I return home from abroad, I'm saddened by how insufficient our train service is. Some amazing public transportation out there at very reasonable prices. Wish there were more interest in developing dependable, high-quality rail service. Def agree w/Cloneon - the trip into Winter...
