Grain prices were all lower, led by Chicago wheat that broke into a new 6-year low. Fundamentals remain negative for the grain complex, but particularly so for wheat that has struggled with a record large world crop last year and record large carryover into this season. Warm temperatures across the southern plains are bringing the crop out of dormancy earlier than normal; while that could spell trouble if we get a late freeze, it also means that yields could be higher than average if the weather remains good for growth. The northern plains are also experiencing a warmer than normal winter and we see winter wheat across much of Montana breaking dormancy, a good month ahead of schedule. Soybeans also retreated under bearish sentiment as the soybean harvest increases in Brazil, where a record crop is widely expected.

3 CONVENIENT LOCATIONS TO SERVE YOU! No Dogs Allowed Two buddies were out for a Saturday stroll. One had a Doberman and the other had a Chihuahua. As they sauntered down the street, the guy with the Doberman said to his friend, “Let’s go over to that restaurant and get something to drink.” The guy with the Chihuahua said, “We can’t go in there. We’ve got dogs with us.” The one with the Doberman said, “Just follow my lead.” They walked over to the restaurant and the guy with the Doberman put on a pair of dark glasses and started to walk into the restaurant. The waiter at the door said, “Sorry, Mac, no pets allowed.” The man with the Doberman said, “You don’t understand. This is my Seeing-Eye dog.” The waiter said, “A Doberman pinscher?” The man said, “Yes, they’re using them now. They’re very good.” The waiter said, “OK then, come on in.” The buddy with the Chihuahua figured he’d try it too so he put on a pair of dark glasses and started to walk into the restaurant. He knew his story would be a bit more unbelievable. Once again the waiter said, “Sorry, pal, no pets allowed.” The man with the Chihuahua said, “You don’t understand. This is my Seeing-Eye dog.” The waiter said, “A Chihuahua?” The man with the Chihuahua said, “A Chihuahua?!? A Chihuahua?!? They gave me a Chihuahua??”

Dear Charles, I’m sure you’re a smart man, so you’ll understand when I tell you — for the sake of your marriage and mental health — to let this one go. Seriously, is $100 going to move the needle that much? It’s her birthday, and it was a gift designed to let her do something nice for herself. There’s absolutely nothing wrong with her spending a little bit on herself on her special day. If she had asked me about this, I would have told her it was fine. If she had asked me about putting it toward debt, I would have said that’s fine, too. It’s not a big deal for someone to have a little fun once in a while. But it’s a bad plan for you to try to get at her gift. Just let it go, and do your part to make sure she knows that you love her and that she has a great birthday! ~Dave * Dave Ramsey is America’s trusted voice on money and business and CEO of Ramsey Solutions.
