Damn where’d you go to high school? I’m over here highly concerned w whether or not I’m gonna be helping my hs bestie pay for her inevitable divorce in a few years 😅

Why would they get divorced?

OP - believe it or not it gets even better. Or at least it did for me. Went to a small high school 35+ years ago. 90% of those kids who intimidated you in high school, the cool kids, the rich kids, the “bad” kids, the jocks, the theater kids - they all become nice people and you realize you have more in common with them than not. It only truly happens after 20-25 years, until then it’s still a little competitive. You lean on each other in hard times. You come together to help one another and cheer each other on. People I barely spoke to in the four years of high school are people I think of almost every day now and have become real friends. Their happiness is yours and their tragedies yours as well.

Will be getting proceeds from a house sale shortly ($175K or so), and then will be completing purchase of new house around December. Suggestions on best place to park the house sale proceeds in meantime? Looks like best savings rate our current bank can manage is .06% right now. Not even sure we can get that rate since we only park funds there for 4 months.

Someone should make a candy brand called "reds," where the candy concept is like Mike and Ike's, but they're all red, and the reds are different flavors, like cherry cola, strawberry, sour cherry, raspberry, cinnamon, watermelon, peppermint, bubblegum, and more... And then they could make a "greens" version, a "blues" version, orange, etc.
