    The days of appliances built to last are far gone. It’s called planned obsolescence. My mom has a full kitchen of foo-foo appliances by Dacor and she has had nothing but problems. The only one that really works with no problem is her Sharp microwave.

    Regardless of that I have never heard bad things about Kenmore from Sears. Alternatively, depending on budget I have also heard good things about Wolf. Although expensive they are built for operating in a commercial kitchen. I have heard BAD BAD things about Viking though, another commercial grade appliance company.

    Something to consider, most credit cards charge a fee when you purchase things in another currency (aka Euros). Capital One is one of the few companies that charges you no fees. I hate Capital One…i’ll be honest…but I have paying fees even more!

    With that said I have a Chase British Airways Visa and a Amex Platinum in my wallet. They both have always worked great for me.

    So let me get this straight…

    – Guy makes 97k a year
    – Guy buys home for $208k
    – Withdraws $108k in equity
    – Still manages to run up $200k+ in CC debt

    I feel sorry for the wife and kids but how exactly are homeowners the poor taken advantage of people in this whole thing?

    This is what our society has become…God help us all.
