Cse credit union has great rates on loans but their hours are short and few locations and don't really offer much in online banking. for basic saving interest rate, online account like ally or discover is better. For the best checking account feature, it is Charles Schwab checking account that you have to open with a brokerage account. Unlimited free checks, refunded on all ATM fee, great customer service center in Utah, and they will ship your debit card to anywhere in the world. For retirement, I like to use vanguard and pick a low fee index fund. For short term savings that you are planning to use in a year or two, check out ibonds on us Treasury website, currently 6%

The loss is too small to really effect anything. It was one coop. I don't know what their exact numbers are but figure less then 10 percent of the flock if all the coops were operational. All the expensive hard to replace stuff is in the processing room. Plus you probably have another 2 million birds at the two nearby sister farms.

Other than a scientific analysis of the fire's cause, origin, progression, and extent of damage. They also put the fire out, first.

Reply to Are electric supply rates expected to drop again mid-year? Does a frugal homeowner need to check rates 2x/year to make sure they're getting the best deal? by sadswirlofme
Make sure you can terminate without a penalty and switch as often as its worthwhile. It may cost 10-15% extra for no penalty termination but its worthwhile during wars.

Is 100,000 a significant number of chickens? I met a person that worked at this farm one time. Told me he was a chicken farmer. I said I have a flock myself, I have about ten, how many do you have? He said 3,000,000. Not sure how big of a loss a hunny bun of hens is if you've got twenty nine more.
The local fire inspector will certainly investigate, maybe the state inspector, too? I read that the State Department of Agriculture is being briefed but is not investigating. I'd be interested if anyone knows when the state fire marshal's jurisdiction takes over from the town. 5he insurance company will inspect; the flock and building were probably insured.
E: UConn Extension says there are 5,000,000 chickens in CT at 240 farms.

Agree with others who mentioned online banks for better rates. I've been using Ally for years, their savings account is at 3.5% right now, with CDs a bit higher.
I do still bank locally for emergencies, larger cash withdrawals, or certified checks. I've been with Mutual Security Credit Union for over 10 years and have never had a problem. Not sure where you are, but they're around Fairfield, Litchfield, and New Haven counties.

Reply to Opinions on New Haven? by [deleted]
The city has great food and great culture. However, owning in New Haven comes with much higher taxes than some surrounding options you may want to consider (Milford, Orange, or Woodbridge).

I went to a game just before Christmas and they have to see blinders at XL so you can’t actually see how many seats are missing on a nightly basis

I okay. So did a little research on this company.
Which is likely?
- Arson which you would need a massive corporate conspiracy, payoffs and hope your insurance company doesn’t catch on. Plus overall increase in premiums regardless. Overall barely effecting bottom line. This seems like small potatoes for them.
Or.
- Sketchy ass farm company that has been sued and citied over numerous issues including health, safety and price gouging having lax safety standards that led to the operation burning down.
I’m going to go with the non Hollywood plot. :)

Sorry if this is a silly question…but is it just the space for lease? Or the actual LQ is for lease?

Owned by the New York Rangers, and their parent company, MSG Inc owns the building. There will never be ANOTHER pro team there full time is what I should have said.
The area barely supports the minor league hockey team it has. A pro team will not come.
It's hockey. That's the issue. The Yard Goats have no issue packing their stadium and they're objectively not that good.

Probably a way to control the property and make sure nobody else can buy it, without taking on a tax liability.
At some point the billionaire will probably “buy the property back” and do something with it.
