Yep, there are many retirees today that have moved out of the USA for
a more attractive life style they can afford, else where.

A few years ago I had watched a news show......... 20/20 or 60 minutes, etc
and it was about retirees that had moved to a particular country but I don't
remember which it was. It wasn't Puerto Rico. They showed retired couples
that were living a vacation style life on very little retirement income.

More recently, they were showing people in the USA that had moved to
New Zealand.........a country that I have always wanted to visit. The
New Zealanders are getting a big angry about it because where once was
affordable housing, has increased in price due to the Americans moving in.

That's kind of like 'can't win for losing' because even low cost areas will often
increase in time.

What the heck are people living on? Must be gold under their house.

Valerie, I lived in NJ on a small lot The taxes were so high that when we retired we could not afford to stay there. The monthly payment was higher then the mortgage payment. We sold out and moved to Alabama. 14 years ago.
I hear from family and friends that the taxes are even higher now.

Yes, exactly. The people I saw and heard talking about their high property tax's, appeared
to be average income people. Of course, in the North, wages are usually much higher than
jobs in the South.

Pay more for property tax than the cost of the house.

Straw

If you're referring to cats, they like two openings. Some cats won't stay within an
enclosure unless there is an escape opening.

Straw is about the best item people can use for animals. Straw absorbs heat, but
not water.

Clothing can get wet. Once it is wet, it becomes cold and may be difficult to dry
within an enclosed area.

Also, it's a good idea to have blocks of some sort to keep an outdoor animal house
up off the ground.

Yeah, it is tough for the average person to get ahead, not to mention the poor.

All the above has already been suggested in the 'Feature Suggestion' sub forum.

I don't know.

ClixSense has been functioning successfully for ELEVEN YEARS.

Change is part of business.

I couldn't tell you eleven years ago that PayPal would stop doing business with ClixSense.

And I can't tell you today if PayPal will return or what other payment processors may be
added or what new payment processors will launch tomorrow.

I see you've been here approximately 4 years and have made approximately $14. PayPal
was doing business with ClixSense most of that time so not too sure how much of a difference
that aspect makes to you. See what I am saying? Even when PayPal was an option you
weren't making more than a few cents a day if that.

I do have a suggestion for you.

ClixSense does not delete member accounts so if you did ever want to return, you probably
could. Members do automatically go inactive after 90 days without log in so I would suggest
you might want to log in at least once every now and then to keep your account active.

It's really just up to you, what you want to do.

So what you are saying BouldRake, in Payza, one loses $30 per $100 spend with Bitcoin?

Now I realize there is no sound with it. hahahahahahaha

I got it.

I am using a HDMI Male to VGA Female Video Converter.

I have a ton of cables cords converters etc but didn't really know what I was looking for.

Thanks again.

I've got a ton of cables and have not looked every where in my house yet.

I saw one on Amazon but not sure if it will work r what i need.

Why is it I always have what I am not looking for!

Not sure about that one BouldRake but may work.

Do not display your acct info and do not display ref numbers.

The way the image appears, it shows the display port from the monitor going into
the hdmi port on the mini computer.


dell stinks....


thanks

I year ago I purchased a monitor and a mini computer. Today I decided to hook it up.

Unpacked everything and no problem hooking things up but then I noticed all I had was
an included VGA cable..............the kind that has the screws on each side to screw in.

So lame since the mini computer does not have that type of display port.


There is a port beside that one that I thought was an hdmi port so I tried that..........nope.


The mini computer has hdmi ports and a display port.

What does the end of an d display port look like?
And do I need a display to display cable or a display to hdmi cable?

PS little paper looks like it says E1916H and several other numbers for the cable.
So lame because it displays it as if included.

I have a couple of mountain bikes and ride them occasionally.

Bikes are not obsolete in America. They are extremely popular and probably more popular
today than ever before.

You die, leave all your money to someone you may not even know that well and you have experienced nothing - no vacations, no cruises, no road trips. Everyone should live a little. Build up some memories. Die content that you have totally experienced life.

Everyone is different.

Mary and Ruth lived a very active full life. Just because they did not spend money on stuff,
does not mean they were not happy. They were very active in their school system. They had
lots and lots of friends. Almost every day in their old age, they had people visit them....many
were teachers that had been in Mary's class as a child. The money they left no doubt has
helped many people with their education. They experienced much more than many people.
Just because they did not waste money on stuff they didn't need or want, nor take vacations,
does not mean they did not make memories. They were also very active in their church.


I agree, most people are not like that.

April?

ClixSense does not display the date the payment will be in your Payza account.


Kwiecień?

ClixSense nie wyświetla daty płatności na twoim koncie Payza.

To pewno jest data w formacie amerykańskim, więc wypłata będzie 4 stycznia

Nie wiedziałem tego. Gdzie wyświetla się, kiedy otrzymasz płatność?

All societies are built up that we have to buy things.

But considering an environmental consideration ..... then you are right.

But so far we are allowed to do whatever we want with the money we earn.

Remember: There are no pockets in the last set of clothes you get on

Well that is not my point. For starters, the women I am referring to had to spend money.
They had to buy food. They had to pay for repairs on their house when needed. They
had insurance payments to make. I don't know about the youngest sister but the oldest
paid for her education to become a teacher. Of course they purchased items besides food.
They no doubt bought a new dress from time to time. Undergarments and sleepwear. Shoes
do wear down after awhile. I am not saying they never bought anything at all.

What I am saying is, they enjoyed the life they had and did not spend senselessly.

You want to enjoy your life. If enjoying your life means redecorating your house every two
years, that is fine. In other words, what you do with your money is up to you. But this
topic is about being a millionaire and my point is, in todays world people waste a lot of
money on stuff they don't need and often stuff they don't even want.

Mary and Ruth had worked for the education system all their lives. That is what they
strongly believe in besides their faith. They lived a good life. They didn't want for
anything. They just simply did not waste money.

There was one thing that President Obama stated that stuck in my head. It was in
regards to healthcare. He said if people would stop spending money on the newest
latest cell phones and other needless items, they would have money for healthcare.
Well of course I don't agree with that in total. However, I do understand what he was
saying. Many people today do not have their priorities in the right place.

Children are not taught enough if at all, in school about money. They teach the
math but they don't teach the money. Then when you go to college they force you
take Economics. You have to listen to some old man drawing graphs on the black
board and you're fortunate if you pass the class. You have nightmares all semester
that if you flunk you'll have to listen to the boring old professor again next semester.

Well, if I was wishing, I would wish to go back about 50 years.

Just think of everything I could invent and help invent.

I'd invent velcro.

I think a large reason why people don't have more money is because, they spend it.

The more you make, the more you spend

There are people that died and left millions of dollars BUT they had led a very meager life.
The reason why they had millions is because they did not spend it.

I knew two old spinsters that were sisters. They never married, never had children and did
not have any living relatives but each other. The oldest sister was a grade school teacher and
the other sister worked as a secretary at the same school. They lived a few blocks down the
street from the school. They lived in the same house they were born in. Their house was
small, comfortable, and always neat inside and out. The furniture they had, for the most part
was the same furniture they grew up with as children. As far as I know, they never had a
car, never went on vacations, and never made lavish purchases. The front room of their house
was kept very nice and rarely used. They used their dinning room as their den and that is
where they spent most of their waking hours when not working. It was almost shocking what
they left behind after they died. Millions of dollars. The majority of their money was left to
the school where they worked all their life and another even larger portion went to the
university in the same town where the oldest daughter had received her teaching degree.
Almost their entire contents of their house was antiques and some priceless, except for their
mattresses. In the small shed behind their house was lots of antiques, items that had belonged
to their father such as old tools. Even their clothes was old but well kept.

Today, many people spend constantly. We get tired of looking at the furniture we bought two
years ago, and buy new furniture even tho there is nothing wrong with the previous. People
spend hundreds and even thousands of dollars every year on mobile phones and mobile phone
usage AND when a new phone comes out, they buy the new one even tho the one they bought
last year is fine. People spend a lot of money on cars and there are people that don't even
need a car because everything is in walking distance for them. A car had a purpose to get
people from one point of distance to another but today, cars can be more expensive than a
house, people will spend thousands of dollars on new cars, not to mention the costs of gas
and maintenance. Many people spend money on all the latest items such as new kitchen
gadgets, new computers, etc. Often, many products that are purchased are rarely used or
used a few times and then put away or thrown away. Many people have become fat simply
because they eat too much food. Food that cost money that they don't even need. Food
from fast food joints that cost a lot of money. Food they would be better off not eating.

So the next time you say you would like to have a million dollars, just know that you very
likely could have a million dollars if you get a good education, you work, you save, and
you stop spending money on stuff you don't need anyway.
