why would any one have a computer on line with their financial information ? seems like it would be wise to have a separate computer off line for that , JMO . I know some folks have everything on their cell phone now ??? it makes no sense to me ? if you can wave your cell phone and pay a bill it seems like it wold be easy for foul play .

So we are now officially past the cost of living adjustment.

Just to show how this happens so quickly....

Drug Insurance went up $8.40 per month
Supplemental health went up $32.00 per month
Property taxes went up $31.00 per month
Car insurance up $1.50 per month
Home insurance up $5.20
EST tax change due to SS raise $5.30 per month
Other rates that have gone up about $20 per month

Things at this point indicate at least $103.40 more per month over last year.

While I don't expect too many more increases this year there well could be some, I don't expect any thing to cost less so while the cost of living has done its job for the most part at least we got one or things would be worse.

The good news it that my tool budget has not been effect, yet any way.
