  2. My interaction with this particular provider left me with an extremely sour taste in my mouth. I contacted him when he was working in Fort Lauderdale and wanted to set up an appointment while I was in town visiting. He requested a deposit which I politely declined. He then texted me a screenshot from Mr. Number which indicated I had been a no-show twice with some other escort. I have never been a no-show with an escort but he didn’t want to hear my side of the story even though the screenshot also stated I had left 24 Rentmen reviews. He also left a couple of more disparaging texts. The whole text conversation was disappointing. This guy may be the best thing since sliced bread but even bread gets moldy once in a while. Just know that he uses Mr. Number to screen clients which is fine. I use Companyofmen to screen providers. Welcome to the Forum, @ScottB. You’ll soon learn to take the good with the bad here…..something I’ve learned here in a decade of membership. Feel free to read my many posts here.
  3. A shameless confession…..I like the hash browns at Waffle House, scattered and covered of course!
  4. I prefer to look at inflation as a consumer: My preferred coffee brand several weeks ago : $7.99 My preferred coffee brand last week: $14.99 87.6% increase. I could go on and on with respect to many other grocery items. Don’t get me started on health and auto insurance, etc. Inflation is not falling for the average American.
  5. I use a combination of Quicken and Excel. Quicken is my check register and serves many purposes: 1) can be tailored to meet your revenue and expense categories, 2) allow for split transactions (useful for credit card statements), 3) reports can be designed in many different ways, 4) allows for multiple accounts (checking, savings, investment, etc.), 5) reconciliation feature. It can do much more but is a solid program that meets most of my needs. There is a learning curve and requires you to input data. Im a retired accountant who used Excel extensively when working. Excel is a powerful software program that allows me to build projection models, I.e, future and present value calculations, what if models. Also, there is a website calculator.net that has a ton of calculators that can help you answer a lot of financial questions. Good luck to you. It’s tough getting started but worthwhile in the end.
  6. It’s the Kystle Carrington and Alexis Colby hour. 😂
  7. Tax provisions in the One Big Beautiful Bill Act WWW.THETAXADVISER.COM The bill extends portions of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act, provides deductions to eliminate income taxes on certain tips and overtime pay, and addresses other tax... I thought the above article summarized nicely some of the key elements of the recently passed budget and tax bill. Information and knowledge are powerful tools.
  8. I’m not sure where you bank but my bank is required to report my interest earnings to the IRS for all interest earnings over $10.00. How do you propose the bank report that information? Let’s agree to disagree on that issue. And if the medical provider refuses me service because I refuse to provide my SSN, what am I to do? Perhaps we should get back to the original intent of this post.
  9. I find it interesting that some replying to this post indicate they refuse to provide their social security number. I tried that once and the medical provider explained it was necessary to process my Medicare claim. If I refused to provide it I had two options. First, I would have to pay upfront for the full cost of services provided and not the Medicare negotiated rate. Secondly, the medical provider I was seeing could (and would) refuse service. This hullabaloo about refusing to provide a social security number is stupid. It’s false security if you think by not providing it you’re financially transactions are safer. Try not providing your SSN to a bank and see what happens.
  10. Saw him when he was in the Tampa-St. Pete area. He assured me he was into kissing when I mentioned how important that was to me. While he “attempted “ to kiss it was obvious to me he was just going through the motions. Nice enough guy but definitely wouldn’t repeat.
  11. Here’s a copy of a review left on RM. Seems to corroborate the OP’s experience.

  13. I don’t think Treasury Direct sends out 1099s in the mail. At least they didn’t for me. I logged into my Treasury Direct account and printed out my 1099s for my T-bills from their website. Try logging into your account and navigate to the tax information tab. You should find your 1099 there.
