NEVER buy anything that is labeled as a SMART device.  No phones, no appliances, NADA.  Nothing with the word smart attached is safe to use unless you like being spied on.  It won't spy on you directly, but it will spy on your use of things like your car, your tv, your refrigerator (and probably what's in it!), your surroundings, etc.  My son bought an Alexa and that thing is just downright scary.  I told him to throw it in the garbage and I'd give him the money he paid for it NEVER TO BUY ANYTHING LIKE IT.  Kids today think they know everything about everything but they have not lived through hard times yet.  Now THAT was a good book, come to think of it.  Hard Times by Studs Terkel.  Read it and learn.  Or for that matter read any of the books about the great depression because WE'RE THERE.  Might as well know what you're getting into.


If you make more than $250,000 per year, don't bother to read it, you wouldn't understand.
