My accountant friend just told me to stop mixing business and personal accounts

We were grabbing coffee and she flat out said, 'You're making your own tax season a nightmare.' I'd been using one checking account for everything for two years. Has anyone else made this switch and actually felt less stressed?

My neighbor told me her mom's 'depression cake' didn't use eggs or butter, which got me thinking about what else we've lost.

But it's just gravy, not a lost art.

Rant: My brother-in-law's take on broker fees in Chicago made me check my statements

My buddy in Omaha says we should stop pushing extended warranties on every repair.

My old shop had a rule, anything under $200 parts and labor didn't even get the warranty talk. It changed the whole vibe with customers. Jessica_sullivan5 is onto something with the budget wrecking idea, focus on the big ticket items like compressors or control panels. That way it feels like real protection instead of a sneaky fee. How does your team decide what gets a warranty offer now?
