This won’t end well

I’m gonna venture that upwards of 50% if people have no idea what that will mean next tax year

This is so fucking blatantly absurd/surreal/criminal... he's giving a single piece of tax advice that applies to "EVERYONE"???

And goes on to say that everyone will get "an automatic real wage increase" by taking his advice! :slap:

Change your withholding and then thank Trump with your votes in November... some will be in for a rude awakening when filing taxes next year, but it will be too late. :(

With all the Bad News here, wanted to share our surprise on our Auto Insurance renewal, no coverage difference either, actually they added a thing called Declining Deductible (no cost) where our deductibles drop $50 each year we renew/hold a continuous policy with them. Not sure the cap, maybe one day no deductible? Would be ok with us ;)

This is a 6 month full coverage policy for a 2025 RAM 1500 and 2019 Highlander

I am going to call our Agent to see if we can renew for one year at this rate...I think though I asked before and they said no...(Yep just confirmed, they only do 6 month policies)

Oh, yes we have our Home and Auto bundled with same Ins. Co., FYI

UPDATE: Our Agent said the Declining Deductible is every 6 months and there is no cap. So $100 a year less deductible, pretty kewl. We have $500 deductibles so got 5 years to end up with zero deductible.
The Agent also said since we have had not incidents and we have been with them for a long time we are signed up for first accident will not go against us even if it is our fault. It has been a long time since we have been in one and now we are driving less than we did in the big city so our percentage chances are less, people drive much better out in the country than in the city. We get it is a promotional thing.

It's called marketing. Got to get those profits!

'Recent concerns regarding "fake inflation" in groceries often refer to deceptive corporate practices—such as shrinkflation (reducing package size while keeping prices the same), skimpflation (using lower-quality ingredients), and fake discounts (artificially inflating prices before offering a "sale"). While official inflation data shows rising costs, some reports allege that major chains have used supply chain disruptions as cover to increase profit margins beyond actual cost increases.'
