I recently spoke with a woman who was beleaguered by the fact that she was tasked with selling the remains of her dead brother's estate, a depressing task under normal circumstances. However, she faced the additional burden of realizing her sibling had acquired a lot of crap and left this ...

As it happens each year, I sat down to go over my taxes, and as part of that, assess how I made out on vehicles that were sold. The topic of whether you can make money on old / vintage vehicles has long been a point of contention for some ...

I have become resigned to the fact that no matter how hard you try to prove otherwise, eBay and PayPal are going to side on behalf of buyers, time and again. As someone who sells a decent amount each year on eBay, I probably encounter one buyer each year who ...

As someone who owns a PR agency for my full-time work, I've learned how to spot the hidden message in news announcements over the years. And in terms of Amelia Island 2025, it's clear Broad Arrow didn't have the best of times.

Here at TCG, we consider ourselves fortunate to be in a unique position with a solution for digital record keeping that has historically been challenging to solve. One of the bigger issues we see is that even so-called leaders and influencers in the enthusiast/hobby car world is a lack of ...

The recent - and ongoing - California wildfires are absolutely devastating. There's no other way to describe it. The losses are staggering, and while human life has largely been spared, we ache for those that have perished. 

Photos have been trickling in of property losses, and among them, the destruction ...
