Just had another $500 plumbing bill to have hot water and hubby's oral surgery is tomorrow...

And strangely, I'm calm.

It's just the way it is.I think I'm just glad that I can have a shower after 3 days.

1. When you get older life presents choices.

Hot water or a new Last Will with a probate avoiding trust.

2. I think the older you get, you get pickier about what you get outraged about.

Or even, excited about - good or bad.

3. It really seems like someone is taking advantage of you.

4. To me too

$500 will buy a new water heater … she is being overcharged

5. It basically is a new water heater from what I recall.

Going to check...

Yep, less than a year old: https://www.democraticunderground.com/10181602573

I think I would find a new plumber!

6. Yep

I’ve been following along … I think someone is definitely taking advantage of her

7. $800 now?

do you have a consumer affair advocate in your community?

unless you had a lot of other plumbing done, that is outrageous for a year old water heater.

8. I am hoping we will get something back from the water heater company.

I couldn't argue with the amount of time it took. I was here the entire time he and his partner worked. We have a friend, a retired plumber, who talked with him on the phone. He said what he was hearing was what he would have done. IOW, we checked him out.

"The is what we have money for." I told my husband. "Be glad we have it."
