Companies That Were Everywhere In The 1970s—But No One Remembers Them Today. Seriously, Do You Remember Even 5?

In the 70s, a company could seem absolutely everywhere—until suddenly it wasn’t. A few decades later, somebody says the name and it takes your brain three seconds to find the memory. Just saying...Remembering five of them might be tougher than you think.

Confused couple with HOA notice

The HOA approved my renovation, but now says it violates updated rules. Can approvals be reversed after work begins?

You got the approval and did the paperwork. You hired contractors and maybe even lived through the noise and mess. Now, out of nowhere, the HOA tells you the renovation violates updated rules and needs to change or stop.

Woman worried about renovations

I want to renovate our kitchen before selling to increase the home’s value, but my husband says we won’t recoup the cost. Is he right?

You’re about to sell, and your instinct is clear: update the kitchen, boost the value, sell for more. Your partner, on the other hand, says you’ll spend a fortune and never get it back. So, who’s right?

Woman concerned about pay app

I was tricked into sending money through an app, but my bank won’t dispute the charge because I “authorized” it. Is there any way to get my money back?

You didn’t get hacked. You didn’t have your card stolen. You sent the money yourself, because someone convinced you to. Now the bank says the charge was authorized, so there’s nothing they can do. Unfortunately, this is one of the hardest types of fraud to reverse, but “hard” doesn’t mean “impossible”.
