Although I'm normally on the path to reducing monthly payments, I recently had a look at Blinkist (https://www.blinkist.com/). I noticed that I've been reading way too little in the last few weeks.

They've got a seven-day trial, so no money was "wasted" yet, but I'll admit I find their summaries pretty...

She couldn't handle whiskey either. Or any liquor for that matter. She chose not to drink beer or wine because she didn't enjoy the taste. But probably she couldn't handle  alcohol at that amount either. Ten, twenty years ago not drinking made it difficult to make friends. These days it...
