It used to cost me $0.10 for a cup of coffee at the Illinois Central station in 1970. Last week a cup cost me nearly $3.00 at a casino in Las Vegas (regular drip variety). WTF?
On a brighter note, I was offered a line of credit (amount was not discussed) by Citibank for prime-0.75 (yes prime minus three quarters of a point)! Not my regular bank, have an account there for my audio slush fund and pocket expenses (7-Eleven now has Citibank ATM's so I don't pay any fees for cash withdrawals when I travel), so they really have no idea of my income or assets. Wonder if they get to see my credit rating or some other information they have access to.
Plan to sign up for the new Tesla Model 3 if borrowing is so cheap.
