Lol, financial planning

funny

1. Decide on minimum liquid savings, 1 yr, 2yr, etc.
2. No consumer debt
3. Decide how much you need to save/invest annually for college, retirement, etc. to meet your goals.
4. Be sure risks are insured, as necessary, including disability and LTC.
5. Be sure you have enough for monthly non discretionary spending.
6. Enjoy life after 1-5.
Over simplified, but essentially what works.

Florida: After a car accident can the driver injured in the other vehicle sue the husband (wife was driving the at fault vehicle) for negligent entrustment? Wife & husband both on the car’s title. I understand they have dangerous instrumentality, but how can you say the car was “entrusted” to someone who has rightful legal title to it?

Huge thanks to all who weighed in on my weight loss post. Have peloton-ed and cut late night food and can see results - with Wegovy as a backup. Thanks to all who commented. Next question - has anybody with larger male body (big shoulders barrel chested long torso short legs wide feet) found high end clothing that fits? I find luxury brands are limited, made for 5’5” androgynous 125 lb men. Tired of wearing overly baggy stuff. Ralph Lauren has been best so far with XXL slim fit. Thoughts?
