Thrifty Gifts

Thrifty Gifts

I hope all the Dads had a great Father's Day. Children are the world's most precious gift and it is a lucky man who both has a child and shows his love.  This got me thinking about the whole gift-giving conundrum, which can be fraught w/ peril..

Good Subs

Good Subs

In the wildly popular book 50 Shades of Grey (which I loved) the "sub club" was a group of  women with no self-esteem who got sexual gratification by being beaten up and abused.  Don't be alarmed...this column is not about submissives.  It's about seriously low priced substitutions for products you use every day!

Car Talk

Car Talk

I just spent 5 hours in the car w/ my parents going upstate to my son's college (Cornell) graduation and another 5 hours + on the way home.  Among other things, this got me thinking about how much I've learned from my Dad about cars and saving money.
