Solis is Launching Yet Another New Global WiFi Hotspot Model
Back in 2019, I purchased my first Solis (then known as Skyroam Solis) international hotspot device. Since then, though, the company has rolled out a number of new models — and that pace has really hastened over the past couple of years. That continued this month as preorders for their new Solis Tag device opened....

Everything You Need to Know About Flying Allegiant Air in 2026
Updated on February 3, 2026 When my wife and I moved to Springfield, Missouri more than a decade ago, one of the selling points (or at least what kept it in the running) was that there was a nearby airport that served a decent number of destinations.

With hidden pockets and a built-in eye shade, it sounded like either a clever travel accessory or an incredibly gimmicky sweatshirt. As it turned out, it was a little bit of both — but I ultimately enjoyed using it. Then,...
End of an Era: Why I Canceled My American Express Platinum
In October 2019, I did something that seemed crazy at the time: I applied for a credit card that carried a $550 annual fee. The card was the American Express Platinum card and what attracted me to it were features such as the airport lounge access. At the time, my wife and I had been...
Leaving WeBull? You Can Earn a Bonus from These Brokerages
They say that all publicity is good publicity... but I'm not sure that's true. Take, for example, the recent news about the FinTech brokerage WeBull.
