Milestones, transitions & longevity
An open letter to wisdom teeth
It’s that toothy time of year again
Don’t make me blow up the castle
A chance they won’t come home
Change and fear come with the territory
Still watching every breath we take
Somehow it all works out
I am pretty sure we can all agree that our financial state gets easier as we get older. Let’s face it, we all love our kids and would not change anything they provide us. But it can be financially challenging. When we decide to have a family, none of us really think past the stage of them being babies. We have no idea what lies ahead for us in the process. I just read it is estimated the cost to raise a child to 18 is $233,610. If only it ended at 18, right?
The other ticking time bomb
In case you missed it, the United Nations and Worldmeter.com announced recently that the world’s population hit 8 billion people on Nov. 15, 2022. For perspective, that’s more than a 500% increase since 1900.
MagSafe accessories can be handy
This week we’ll discuss Apple’s MagSafe and how you can get it on just about any phone. But first, I have to tell you about Lastpass’s latest hack. If you haven’t already heard, it’s a pretty significant breach. Hackers stole entire vaults of passwords so if you don’t have a really good, long master password you’d best be served to change all of your passwords and also change your master password. Make it at least 15 characters long, and remember, it can contain spaces and special characters so you could make it something like “Eldest WaS=s B0rn on 05/21/94 that’s May Twenty-First!” - something you can remember.
