In my experience over the last two years hotels are either same price OR less expensive due to AirBnBs bait and switch pricing. The taxes, cleaning fees, and random add ons are absurd.

In a recent example, staying at some Yurt for three days was $248. After taxes and fees it was around $515. Like wtf?!

I’m at the point where even if the pricing was flat, a hotel is 10X less hassle to deal with than AirBnB.

After this year I’m done with pumpkins. Love them but holy hell squash bug invasion. Went on vacation and came back to a full blow infestation. It’s taken all the joy out of it. Hoping a hiatus will get rid of them.

Look great btw.

Probably has to do with the investments themselves. You may not be personally ‘picking’ the investments, however, most target funds include investments that have such investments. Source: wife works at a financial institution. Also I’m drinking so Google it ontop of it or something.

Edit* Also totally shouldn’t count.
