A burger joint. Don’t recall the menu. 19 cents a burger. Dad liked them so we liked going there. He would drive all the way to Houston to Prince’s Drive-In just for their steak sandwiches. Rodney Crowell sings about them in Telephone Road.

You seem to be a perfect candidate for a rewards card. My brother travels a lot with his 3/4 ton truck and travel trailer. He uses a rewards CC to get 4% cash back on diesel purchases. He pays it off every month. The 4% is good for up to $8000 per year in purchases. So in diesel alone, if he spends 8K a year, he gets $320 credit to his card per year. It has lower percent's for other categories. That sounded like an advertisement but it's not....lol When my Father started forgetting to pay bills, I stepped in and had all of his bills auto-charged to his Discover credit card. I then set up his Discover to be auto-deducted from his checking account. The only thing I had to do was review the CC statement to make sure all was correct. I believe he received about $500 back a year in credit card rewards.... If you do it that way, the credit card pays you to use it. The only down fall is it is VERY easy to spend more than you make.

No I don’t remember Price’s. What kind of food did they sell?

All good things must end, it seems. Had to stand in line to get in there, but of course you know that. I sometimes post for those who are not in-the-know so they can know what they missed. You remember Price’s on Calder? I think it’s a Munro’s Cleaners now.

I heard they hired last night, anyone got a name?

Hands down Felix’s Mexican Restaurant made the Best Queso!!! Very unique in the way they made it. I haven’t found anyone who makes it like they did.

I stated I haven't used the card in a very long time. My wife has used it periodically just to keep the card active. Very very small purchases that she pays off completely at statement time. You are correct, I may be at risk. But I just don't like having notes. Can't stand interest rates unless it puts money in my pocket.

Interviews have begun, any names leaked besides the Slot-T Mafia member?

We are similar. But, my identity was stolen from a DoD breach. Since I don't take out loans, and I only keep 2 cards (I use them for autopayment of bills where I can dispute & get cash back) it took me until I received collection notices to know I'd been had. I checked my credit reports yearly, and receive immediate notices for every charge on my cards via Capital One & my Credit Union. It didn't matter. The DoD breach affected millions of veterans, and included all the identifiers--and more--than even in this misuse of data. I should have titled the thread differently I guess, because this is a much bigger disclosure than just your SSN. If you don't use credit regularly--or at all--so you think yourself safe, I'd actually say you're probably the most at risk because you wouldn't normally think it's a big deal and shouldn't involve you. I thought the same. A freeze can be lifted in a matter of hours. Not days. I actually tested it when I first set ours up. It was unfrozen in less than an hour online. It's one of the few proactive things you can do to help protect yourself, and it's free. Anyway, each to their own. I posted for information purposes only.

We have one credit card (Visa Gold) for extreme emergencies. Two different bank debit cards. I honestly cannot remember the last time I used a credit card. Those things get you in trouble more than they help. I am fortunate enough to have won money at the casinos that I have been able to have a cash account with those guys to use for my gambling roll.

Why do you keep lying out right? He has said on numerous occasions he was giving to charity. The man does not even accept the Presidential salary. You are making yourself look foolish, and I doubt that is what you are going for.....so just stop with the lies or post something that supports your lies.....

They will most definitely be D2 this year.

I'll read it We don't do impulse loans, we have an obligation to do what's right for the customer. I'll say this, if it's the middle of August and the AC guy says you need a new unit and you don't have the cash - getting your loan today versus in a couple days will make you wish you didn't freeze your credit:)

You have done it right. No apologies needed. I'm currently trying to help a young female who managed to get herself 30K in credit card debt..... she has maxed every card out but never missed a payment.....having a very difficult time getting the underwriters to buy in on a consolidation loan. Moral of story - Don't live above your means

Regusa? Or however you spell it I could be wrong lol

They went D1 last year.

You aren’t the first person that I’ve heard this from.

You should read the article. It addresses your second paragraph. As far as the delay on a loan, I’m sure a banker prefers impulse loans to someone having more time to think. Ha!

I will not do a freeze as well. As for loans, I haven't needed one in 18 years. I buy my vehicles outright. Haven't had a car note in 15 years. Only note I have is my beach cabin which we purchased 25 years ago. Got two years left before it's paid off. Own my home in Silsbee, two vehicles, golf cart and trailer. I am very blessed. My apologies to you @thetragichippy and other bankers for not bringing you any business. lol

Neither is going to happen..... She will not be removed and Trump will still call it a hoax,,,,,,the hoax is not that Epstein was not a pedo...the hoax is that Democrats actually care. Maybe you can find a comment you posted during the Biden admin of how concerned you were for the victims....

Banker here..... I have not and will not freeze my credit for a couple reasons. The main reason is I have Chase and Capital One that sends me a notice anytime my credit is ran or looked at. IF I see something, I can dispute immediately and have it removed from my credit. Also, a social alone is really not enough to get past most security features - you would need to match with address, DOB, etc.... Lastly, when applying for a loan, if credit is frozen, you can add a minimum 24-48 hours to get approved.

Dad worked as a draftsman for Bethlehem Steel. Mom was a stay at home…..most women were back then. One income could purchase a small 3 BR and a family vehicle. If we ate out, it was usually on Sunday at the Picadilly downtown Beaumont or Felix’s mexican restaurant on Calder. Just to give Mom a break, Dad would treat us to Burger Chef on 11th street or maybe Price’s burgers on Calder. I was raised on hamburger steak or pintos with rice and gravy. If I was rich, I would still eat pintos with rice and cornbread. Some things are just that good. Not sure what class I’m in. Working class would fit. Lol Hippy, you’re absolutely right about Trump and the Epstein files. I really see no need to try and elaborate on it. This thread is proog enough they are simply after Trump. They care about no one else.
