The Budget Is Not Broken—Your Plan Is Too Polite
Three readers confront the money problems we all pretend will solve themselves. Spoiler: your credit card, emergency fund, and retirement account are not impressed by good intentions.
Your $18,000 “Down Payment” Is Actually Three Different Jobs
A reader has savings, credit-card debt, retirement FOMO, and a dream of buying a home soon. The uncomfortable answer: that money cannot do everything at once.

The Quiet Power of What You Let In
William James had a wonderfully blunt theory of attention: your life is not shaped merely by what happens, but by what you consent to notice. That idea can change the way you spend the next hour.

The Studio Is the First Hollywood Show in Years That Deserves to Be This Vain
Apple TV+’s <em>The Studio</em> understands that Hollywood is both a glamorous dream factory and a group project nobody wants to be in. It is sharp, silly, and occasionally so pleased with itself that you can hear the sunglasses applauding.

The Boring Fixes Are Winning
Ozone recovery, cloned ferrets, and free school meals give us three solid reasons to respect patient work. Good news rarely arrives with fireworks. It arrives with paperwork, freezer samples, and someone remembering to pack extra sandwiches.

Lanesboro, Minnesota: A River-Town Weekend With Pie, Bikes, and a Cave
Follow the Root River into southeastern Minnesota for a small-town weekend that feels refreshingly unpolished. Park once, rent a bike, eat something fried, and remember that a good getaway does not need a resort or a reservation at a restaurant with a twelve-page wine list.

CAP Small Business Help TARIFF UPDATE: Vermont businesses that paid tariffs recently struck down by the Courts can seek reimbursement through the CPB portal. We are listening and learning about better ways the Consumer Assistance Program can assist small businesses. We are meeting with businesses, trade associations and business groups in every corner of Vermont. We will work to solve problems that small businesses perceive. We cannot provide legal advice, but we can provide small businesses with information and answers to common questions in the consumer domain. Small Business Resource Center File a Scam Report File a Complaint with another Business Consumer Assistance Program | 109 State Street, Montpelier, VT 05609-1001 | 1-800-649-2424 | ago.cap@vermont.gov
Get help with a consumer complaint
Get help with a consumer complaint We're here to help. File a Complaint Update a Complaint We can try to help consumer and business parties open lines of communication to see if a resolution may be possible outside of the court process. This is not a formal legal process, and we cannot guarantee a response or resolution. However, we find that we are often able to help consumers like you get responses to complaints through this process. In order to assist you, we need a brief description of your complaint that we can send on to the business you identify for response. What happens when a complaint is filed? Our complaint process is centered on sharing information, so both parties understand each other's position. When we receive a consumer complaint, we forward it to the business named, and ask the business to respond. This way, the business: Knows a complaint has been filed, Can learn what the consumer concern is and what the consumer would like done to resolve the issue, and Can respond to resolve the matter and make sure that their perspective is on the record. For this process to work, we need both parties to keep us updated on the status of the complaint. If you have filed a consumer complaint, or if your business has received a complaint and wishes to respond, please update us by emailing AGO.CAP@vermont.gov or use our online form.
