SAME. I think “well we don’t have a lot of space” and then I panic and buy a six pack of hand soap in case we can’t get it next fall

Yep. It is exhausting. I have punted more than once, just like the many times I considered shifting stuff around in my 401k and in my dad's accounts.

Hubbs got rid of most debt \ investments after election and even I did not think this administration would be this terrifying so fast.😡😡😡 My dad is a Fox dope that I try to deal with from distance mostly.🙃 Promised dying mom in 2011 before all this BS would look after him but exceedingly difficult.😡

My dad tried gaming individual micro stocks, pipeline partnerships, and perks from five different credit cards. After Parkinson's limited his ability to operate the apps on his phone, it all went to hell. Been establishing POA and need to do another one after he got scammed last week.

I'm tired.

Ooof 😞

Oh no! Hugs. Glad my dad is tech inept or we would be worse off. I have been trying to do the right thing all these years but no way I can continue as only child. When they take his SSI because he did not listen to us he will be on his own.😡

Instead of asking for help with his iPad, he found JustAnswer. They gave him a random number for Apple tech support for the low, low price of $1. Then they charged him $55/month.

I did his taxes this year. He lost a ton of money on scam investments that could have been riding an index fund 🤦‍♂️

So sorry to hear that. That must be so stressful for you

Oh no! Just awful. I have been in senior home care for rich and poor and the scams are so bad. Worse now with smart phones. I had a retired Dr. that fell for the send money because grandson in trouble in foreign country. Lost 5k because grandson was travelling but scammer knew.😡

If it's made in China, I'd do it.

Just bought a new cell phone because . I started the process a half dozen times over the past month before completing it last night. Feel you.

This but with my 12 year old hot water heater. It works but the price might double but it works but

I have three months of food \ supplies and it will not be enough... Nobody is ready for the devastation in 3 - 6 months. Even if we had a military coup \ new elections the damage to our reputation \ trade will not be rectified. All these because we made guys so rich they are repaying us with ruin!👹
