You can probably get higher interest on a CD or similar account than you’re paying on the mortgage, assuming you have a fixed rate mortgage you got years ago, or refinanced. So paying down the mortgage is not sensible.
Oh right. Spend it all on something you want. Maybe there’s something she wants. Do the practical thing and pay down the mortgage. But have one splurge on a dinner out.
It’s their Alexa, or Siri, or whatever semi-sentient device they’ve got in their house. It listened in on their conversation and reported to its evil corporate masters that the McPhersons are coming into money…
Yea, spend thousands of dollars on something you will only use a couple times a year. Don’t forget to figurewe the cost of operation: jet ski registration fee, trailer registration fee, install trailer hitch on the van, and gas for the jet ski. Then there’s the cost of gas to get to the body of water, and cost for snacks, treats, etc.
The computer stuff in this daily — panels 2 and 3 — was done very well. Often, in static media, computer gags are hard to follow. This one was very clear.

Why spent the money on something sensible. When you can blow it on something irrational.

Do they live near the ocean? Do they trust Hammie on a jet ski?

Seriously, Darryl MacPherson? Your idiotic buying something useless is like Roger Fox (and Wanda is Andrea Fox).

Well if you got a link to new Jet Skis, it must mean that you have old Jet Skis, a pastime you surely enjoy, so why are you surprised.
