I price-shopped for car insurance based on “9 Smart Financial Fixes You Can Tackle in an Hour,” searching for the exact same limits as my current policy. The best option was $150 less per month—with my current insurer! I asked if they would honor the lower price. They canceled my old policy and sold me a new one at the lower rate, with a $130 refund. That was well worth the time spent!

Thanks for the scenic train trip suggestions in the October/November issue [“All Aboard!”]. If you’re traveling in the Northeast Corridor, consider any of the frequent Amtrak trains—all already electrified—between Providence and New Haven. They pass coastal scenery that includes salt ponds, beaches, seaside architecture, boats and water views. Best to sit on the south-facing side of the train.

I am my son’s lifelong full-time caregiver. I love that Emma Heming Willis [“That Wasn’t the Bruce I Knew”] points out that, in the beginning, it really rocks your world. After time, you develop a routine and learn to balance and find joy in this unexpected path.

CORRECTION: “There’s Money in That Box of Old Cables” in the October/November issue suggested that usedcable.com purchases the items shown. That company buys only specialty audiophile cables.
