    Real Estate New Building

    IMO you are better off buying in an established building. I’ve heard of some of these buildings being unable to deliver a deed for the unit you purchased. Kind of bait and switch to a smaller/less desirable unit in the building. As far as quality of build under current construction codes, I...

    How does Original Medicare work?

    If you’re no longer working, you can choose to pay Medicare Part B premiums while you’re overseas or delay enrollment until you come back to the country. However, you may have to pay a late-enrollment fee at that time, for life. Medicare coverage for those who live permanently outside the...

    How does Original Medicare work?

    Just one caveat to this, not all part a is free if you don’t have enough qualifying time employed in the USA. If you have to pay for your part A, you’re required to be enrolled in part B.

    Are you enrolled/paying for Part A? Part B is optional if you receive Part A for free, but if you need to pay for Part A, you'll also need to enroll in Part B. If you do pay for Part A, you will have to disenroll from both A&B.

    Crazy restaurant

    Pippo raised the cubierto to 400 from 100. Don’t mind paying, still a favorite spot. Went into bankruptcy in 2016. The original didn’t survive the pandemic but reopened in the new location doing well after the employees reopened as a employee owned restaurant. https://pippo.com.ar/

    Looking for recommendations for a window repair/rehab service.

    We have an enclosed area lined with metal framed windows which are in need of re-glazing and mechanical adjustments on the closing ones. Anyone have recommendations? I would prefer having them fixed to stop water ingress but having difficulty finding the right guy. Seems most people in...
