There were occasions I would go to a rough neighborhood (armed, of course) to get cheap gas. I can't even do that anymore. The lowest gas prices I've seen is at Sams Club, and I'm not a member.

And someone came along and said you were wrong, see how that works. They think that gasbuddy is infallible. I was out an hour ago and gasbuddy had several stations wrong. I can make a two mile loop and pass all 8 stations in this small town.

Many, many years ago, I mentioned that we needed to get ready to not be so dependent on oil. I never said "stop using oil". I said we need to invested improving alternatives, especially for cars. This was back in 2006. 16 years later, we are still heavily depended on oil. I realize that the way things are, it's not going to change.

Ironic considering Oklahoma is an oil-producing state.

My wife's mother was an heir to some oil well shares. She was getting about $20 a year. If her estate ever gets settled my wife will get a third of that.

I made more money than that over the last 24 hours driving Door Dash. And this is AFTER factoring in buying gasoline. I have a feeling that any investing I want to do in the next month, oil won't be part of it.
