  1. This advise mostly applies to interviewing a financial advisor, but I suppose it could be adapted to brokers as well: 1. How are you paid? (If she won't tell you clearly, run. If she receives commissions from companies or products instead of from you, then she has an incentive to be biased towards products with higher comissions) 2. How were you invested before and after the 2009 crash? (If she's too young to have been working at that time, find someone else. Anyone can make money when stocks are going up. You want to find someone who didn't panic and had a strategy that you can agree with before, during, and after a major recession) 3. Listen to the questions she asks YOU. (What are your goals? Are you married? Will you be moving? What are your sources of income (rental homes, pensions, part time jobs)? Do you want to leave a legacy through charitable giving? Do you have other people who are dependent upon you for income? If she doesn't ask these things and goes right into suggestions to change your portfolio, leave. She needs to know the entire picture of your life and estate goals before she can adequately advise)
  2. Thank Goodness Oliver let me pay him in cash. I still carry a wallet with cash and a checkbook. I'm able to write my travel agent a check, and he takes care of my hotel/airfare/cruise bookings.
  3. Or just a fashion cock ring
  4. I find a good old fashioned jock strap more appealing
  5. I won't take credit for the idea, but thank you for the compliment!
  6. I just saw Matteo while visiting Palm Springs. He responded to my text message within 30 minutes, and we scheduled an appointment for later that evening. He's a little less muscularly defined than his pictures, but the session was good. Nice uncut long thick tool. He made me very happy. He is a decent kisser. Just as importantly, he has a nice attitude. I will most likely see him again
  7. The trick is to always owe them, not have them owe you. They have an incentive to open the envelopes and cash the checks payable to them before they get around to issuing checks payable to us.
  8. I always adjust my withholdings so that I owe them money, and don't expect a refund. This year I mailed my tax return with check on March 8, and the IRS cashed my check on March 14. Fast and easy.
  9. I attended Wednesday ametuer night at LeBoy in February. There were about 7 guys competing, and 2 of them were hired to come back in the future. Let me just say this: watching the ametuers made me appreciate the professionals. Don't go out of your way to go on ametuer night.
  10. I find paper tax forms with the instruction booklet the easiest to use. No internet connection required. It's a little too late to have the tax forms mailed to you from the IRS, but you can pick up the forms and instructions you need at the local IRS office, and some public libraries.
  11. Hey, Providers. I'll be in Palm Springs April 7-11, and looking to hire each day. I'll be attending most of the Palm Springs Escort weekend activities as well. I'm staying at the Canyon Club.
  12. How do trees feel in the spring? Releaved
  13. I always carry a few postcards and postage stamps in my carry-on luggage, just in case the power goes out and I'm stranded or delayed away from home and need to communicate with my emergency contacts back home.
  14. It depends on the airport. Some airports are set up where each airline is responsible for the operation and maintenance within its terminal. This was the norm with older larger airports, notably JFK. McCarran Airport (LAS) pushed the envelope by having the Airport operate and maintain all of the facilities, and merely charging the airline per gate/counter they use. Today, most airports follow the McCarran model.
  15. That's happened to me many times, including from a massuer. They'd rather have the steady repeat business from a good customer then the one time infusion of extra cash. Someone refusing a tip gets brownie points from me. For most self employed providers, I don't tip because they set their own rate and that's factored into why I hire them. But I'll tip if they go over time, or accommodate my arriving late due to traffic, etc.
  16. You mean I've been giving blowjobs to my dentist as part of an oral exam for all these years, for nothing?
  17. For most of human history we used sundials. Egyptians measured time by 12 hours of daylight, and 12 hours of night. Summer hours of daylight were longer than winter hours. People just looked at where the shadow fell on the sundial, with 12 notches added to establish proportions of daytime. This meant that people who began work at 2nd hour of daylight, for example, would start later in the winter than in the summer. Therefore, if we're going to pursue the time keeping method used for most of human history, then keeping the shift from standard time to daylight saving time then back again is more natural than maintaining one time their the year, as it mimicks the start of the day as given by a sundial
  18. A reason your search may have failed to yield the desired results is "daylight" is one word. A multi-word phrase to describe the same thing would be "light of day". But now that you've found us, thanks for contributing! Do you look forward to businesses opening and closing an hour later during the winter, in relation to sunrise?
  19. When I find the love of my life, he'll know I hire and I'll know he escorts 😉
  20. Year round Daylight Saving Time has been tried before, with much complaints after people realize just how dark it is in the morning during winter. If implemented again, we'll be back to changing clocks again soon. https://www.msn.com/en-US/news/politics/permanent-daylight-saving-time-has-been-tried-before--and-it-didnt-go-well/ar-AAVaAbx?ocid=sapphireappshare
  21. Kids have it too easy today. When I was their age, my parents sent me to school in the dark, blindfolded, on nights with no moon.
  22. Massage therapy license requirements vary by state. For New York, visit: http://www.op.nysed.gov/prof/mt/mtlic.htm
  23. School districts can cope by starting school an hour later in the winter. Basically, businesses and schools will create defacto time changes to be open when daylight serves them best. But it will no longer be coordinated nationwide or across all businesses within the community, thereby creating more hassles than if we just left the current system alone.
  24. Area 15 (not 51) is something to try. I've never been personally, but it's on my bucket list. It's about a mile west of the Treasure Island. It's supposed to be a funky, artsy, other-worldly "experience"....kind of like a sci-fi indoor shopping mall with food and odd experiences
  25. Less than one month! I'm saving my hundreds for the providers, and looking forward to seeing the whole group again!
