Is it bad to have multiple credit cards you don’t really use? So I’ve had one credit card for about 8 years (30k limit, 3k balance) and I was looking at my credit score and it had dropped by about 30 points this month.

My family (well specifically my mother) says that this is a bad idea because “lenders want to see that you can handle large debt responsibly and make payments on …

Is it a bad idea to dump most of my money into an apartment? I live in a VHCOL city and currently will have to vacate my current apartment soon. I’ve been looking at rentals in my budget and they’re all terrible (think safety concerns). This has inspired me to look more seriously into trying to buy an apartment as I qualify for a 20% down payment assistance grant. I grew up in my city and I have no intent…

TV series that had a dip in quality with a one or a few bad seasons, but bounced back with subsequent great seasons?

But are there any examples of television shows that had a significant dip in quality but ended up bouncing back? The …

Paramount Plus has such a bad site / player Netflix, Max, Disney, Hulu, all work fine for me. I get practically zero interruptions on any of them. Paramount on the other hand is almost unwatchable half the time. It buffers more often (sometimes causing the audio to continue but the video to freeze until I pause and play again) and very frequently it will crash entirely and give me an erro…
