My father is 65 and will retire this summer. He is convinced he must use the $107,000 in his 401k to pay off his 100k mortgage. He has no other retirement savings (no emergency fund) and will draw about $1800 a month in SS with $800 from my mom. Using the 401k to pay off the mortgage doesn't sound like a good idea to me but I don't know how to explain why. Can someone help?

Look, I keep looking around and around, and there hasn't been a SINGLE unimpressive answer. Not a SINGLE one, this is full of intelligent people, but if there is so many in the world, i wonder, where does ignorance come from then?

(Don't answer curiosity, nor from people that ask stupid questions, its just a question so DEAL with it and don't blame others)

We are trying to conceive. My first day of my last period was April 13th. I normally have a 26 day cycle. I should have started my period on May 9th, but I didn't. A week later, I spotted very light brown for 72 hours (that's NEVER happened before, EVER!). Now, I should have started yesterday, and didn't.
For the past 5 weeks, my cervix has been pointing down, and soft like a bottom lip. My temperature (normally is 96.8) has been staying between 99.0-99.8, for the past 5 weeks. My boobs ache and throb, but not at the same time-mostly-it's like they take turns. I have taken a couple of OTC tests that were negative, the last test 2 weeks ago.
What now? Anyone have any ideas?

I am now a sophmore in college. As a hobby I am part of a community theatre group, and have been there for about 6 months. I have my friends at rehersal, etc, but there is one girl that I am crazy about. I never knew her age till a few weeks ago, I could have sworn she was a freshmen in college, but she is a senior in highschool. So we have a 2.5 to 3 year age difference. I am sure she is interested in return. It is pretty obivious. On top of that she is pretty shy, and want to invite me along with some of our acting partners to hang out, and "get to know me more, in that setting," I have never had anyone say that. What do you all think of the situation. I am lost about it.

Anyone who has seen a doctor for back pain before:
I've had severe low back pain for 4-5 days and today it got so bad that I made an appointment this afternoon with my doctor. What will she do? Is it ok that I took 600mg Ibuprofen? I couldn't sit or lie down and it was getting harder to stand. Now at least I can sit.

I just received an email about some kind of chemical leaching into formula from plastic baby bottles when they're microwaved. I use Dr. Brown's bottles, and they were one of the bottles with the highest level of chemical leaching into the bottle. I'm currently using ready to feed formula as it's the only kind my baby can keep down. She won't take it cold, so how should I warm it besides in the microwave? From what I've read, warming it in any way in the plastic bottle causes leaching. Should I be concerned or is it one of those 'soap box' issues?

Kervorkian just got out of prison. If he were to call more attention to the subject by continueing his practice of assisting suicide, has the US changed enough to tolerate assisted suicide?
As the baby boomers get older, I think that if assisted suicide isn't legalized, it's going to become a really big issue.

In 1954 the English runner Roger Bannister broke the four minute barrier for the mile with a time of 3:59.4 s (3 min and 59.4 sec). In 1999 the Moroccan runner Hicham el-Guerrouj set a record of 3:43.13 s for the mile. If these two runners had run in the same race, each running the entire race at the average speed that earned him a place in the record books, el-Guerrouj would have won. By how many meters?
