Wow, that's the first time I've heard of Venmo! Personally, I prefer to keep my phone and my banking completely separate. Actually, the only "important" account I log into on my phone is my email. Anything else? I'l

Why? The strong taste? Well my sister used to be absolutely obsessed with olives when she was very very young. I never understood it myself, I didn't like them as a kid. I tried them again in adulthood and loved them. I could easily ea

My bed time was 8:00pm for the longest time (until I was in 6th grade - then it moved to 9:00). It isn't out of the question she is going to bed at the proper time. But yes, the National Sleep Foundation says 11-13 hours of sleep a nig

I used to have this issue with mushrooms. I mostly got over it by introducing a small amount of mushrooms (buried in other veggies) with my meal. First uncooked (because the texture is not as revolting uncooked) then cooked. Then I emphasiz

Insurance companies are the absolute worse about that. I'm shopping around for insurance and get 10 quotes. Then I'll pick one company to go with and sign up. I'll either do it online or I call a rep to finish the signup. Now

"Everyone" is a far stretch. More like "people who like to (or don't mind) managing their finances at a finer level and also don't spend above their means." Which is maybe 35% of the American population. Some p

Short term rentals have been illegal in San Fran since (I believe) the 80s. Running a hotel without paying hotel taxes and following other regulations is generally illegal. It surely is also is against local zoning regulations. I think zoni

Well I have no fewer than 4 checking accounts. I have a debit card for all them. I don't use any of the debit cards except at the ATM once in a while so I could probably go without three of them on my person. Then I have 4 credit cards
