$1.4M payment not made, but more importantly... The manager views the plan as not viable. Threatened to not allow Roots to use Coliseum for the rest of the season. Also tacked on an extra $200k per match

Some extra context: The next door Arena appears to be very popular and profitable to use for concerts. When the Roots host a Saturday night home match, the Arena cannot host a concert. So there's bad blood when payments aren't made as they are to accommodate the "opportunity lost".

Basically what the title says. So I usually don’t drive for work but recently I had to for a special reason and my employer gave me a form to fill out so they can reimburse me for the miles I drove. However, the form requires me to put down my insurance info and it just occurred to me, if I submit a mileage reimbursement form will that cause my car insurance rate to go up? A cursory search of Google seems to suggest it might as car insurance companies consider cars used for work to be higher risk than personal use, but again I don’t usually use my car for work. So am I okay to submit the mileage reimbursement form or should I pass?

My car is a 2012 VW Jetta with 137,000+ miles on it. I really like the car but I have had some issues within the last year or so such as having to replace an ignition coil and an issue with the spark plugs but nothing too major. My dad wants me to sell it and buy my 93 year old grandma’s 2016 Chevy Malibu which has only about 12k miles on it (it’s up to date on all maintenance though and kept in a garage) as he believes my car won’t last much longer before it needs more repairs and that new and used cars can be really expensive right now so I should jump on this deal. While I agree with him that new and used cars are expensive right now he’s not really a car guy so before making a decision I wanted to get some extra opinions. So what do you guys think, would it be a smart move to switch and buy my grandma’s 2016 Chevy Malibu with only about 12k miles or do you think I’d be okay if I stuck with my 2012 VW Jetta with over 137k miles?

So first, some background, my grandma who is 93 has a 2016 Chevy Malibu with only 12k miles on it while I have a 2012 VW Jetta with 137k miles on it. Her car hasn’t been in any accidents and is well taken care of and is kept in a garage. Mine is well taken care of too but it does have some dings and dents (nothing major) partially by virtue of being a 14 year old car.

My grandma has decided to give up driving and so my dad and my aunt and uncle are handling selling her car and are trying to sell it for 11k. My dad thinks I should sell my car and buy my grandma’s car as he believes it’s a great deal. I’m not sure if I want to or not but I’m considering it so I’ve been trying to get opinions. However, I posted this question on the personal finance subreddit and was resoundingly told that this was a bad deal and I should just keep my car. I haven’t made any decisions yet and I’m trying to gather as many opinions as possible before making a decision and I was curious what this subreddit would think. So if you were in my shoes what would you do?
