Okay cawiau - I just put a complicated answer on your thread. Did Bundle then implode from the complexity?

I'd be game for voting up an pre-determined article in mass. Pick one and let's try it.
They are still using Bing to get more information on the phrase "tax implications."

So we'll get a bunch of irrelevant info. Nice..............

LOL - okay - lottery thread it is. Everyone click on this link and then press "vote this up" on my lottery thread. We want to see if it works. It is right at the top, next to "COMMUNITY, 3 hours ago" money.bundle.com/everybodysmoney/lottery-13945I wonder if I can vote my own thread up?

You mean the one that can't figure out what to do with the extra .3 pounds of ground turkey that comes in her package?

I would imagine that would happen ONLY if they could understand it. It might come off as a bit Klingonish over there.

Unfortunately, with their sucky formatting it is difficult to read anything that is community generated that is more than 3 sentences long.

Yeah I've noticed that too. I would guess the length of an article hasn't been an issues, as of yet.

You have to add <br> to start a new line. So to add the space between paragraphs I added: <br> <br> Mike gave that advice on one of his comments in some thread & thought I would give it a try.

I just wrote my post in word and did a copy-paste. All the paragraphing transferred just fine.

Trying to see if they eventually "suggest" that maybe Bundle isn't the board for me. It would be a proud day.

You might not get the personal attention I did. Mike came over here and read this thread and found out I was the ring leader. I mentioned that my intentions were to spam the board and encouraged others to do the same.
Then he asked me to play nice, or reconsider my membership.
I think someone here turned me in.

I would expect that they would be monitoring the old YM for the reaction to the move and found this new site quite easily. After all, they are the tech savvy and hip gen Y bunch.

Lord Auric would rather be poor in retirement than live poor now. money.bundle.com/article/women-red-your-20-best-money-moves-year/1He also says you shouldn't put extra money into your 401k because there might be losses that wipe out the match you get from your employer. aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggghhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

Apparently life insurance shouldn't be purchased by most people & is only used to protect assets? I really wanted to respond to some of his stuff, but couldn't log in. Stupid Bundle. I liked your comment to Auric.

Thanks. I was just going to let it pass and delete my account - but I don't think anyone ever said to me that there is an actual, immediate benefit to getting out of debt and having savings. I was always told that having savings is better in the long run, and I couldn't get my brain around it. But, once I had savings and paid off my debt, there was so much relief. It changed my whole outlook on life. Even today, I often will turn to my husband and say "I'm so glad we have money sitting around." I just don't have to worry about some things like I use to. Car repair? No problem. Dental work - how much should I write the check for? Opportunity to fly across the country for a family reunion - great! What date? Better yet - nothing happened today that I need that money - that's great too. Tomorrow it will still be there, just in case. I won't have to worry about something going wrong tonight.

There wasn't a link, though.
