    In need of a crane

    You will probably pay more for a Saturday than you would if you catch someone on way out or in for the day. You could ask the local ac wholesale house who they recommend, they should have a relationship. Large truss companies may have a crane they do side work with on way in out, I sold a couple...

    anyone have any input on the AMG E43 and E53's?

    I have never owned one but if I did own a luxury / performance German brand (other than a 911) it would be a lease and I don't and never have leased anything... The only Merc I have owned was a 12.8L diesel (mbe4000) that was marked by Detroit Diesel. GREAT engine!

    Elderly Parents - How did you handle or what did you have to fix?

    After the financial path is established and the inevitable decline happens, its common to step up and try to care for adults parents in decline. We recent did this with my wife's mother and it was a lot more difficult than we had thought it would be. Get help early on and consistently, elderly...

    For those of you retired but not on Medicare yet. Where are you getting your health insurance?

    I just go through the Utah Health Marketplace, we had kaiser (paid directly for 25 years) but when we retired (at 54) and moved we just contacted a local broker and they set us up. I went high deductible / HSA and pay for most of our medical out of pocket. Comparison, I was paying Kaiser (20k+ a...
