We’re revisiting some of the most impactful, most watched, and most talked about Right on the Money episodes in 2024.
DALLAS — As 2024 comes to a close, we wanted to share what we have learned through some of the most-watched Right on the Money reports from the past year.
Three installments for homeowners and people who want to own a home
1. Squatters could be a big issue in the 2025 legislative session after this nightmare experience one North Texas woman shared with us.
2. How old is your roof? Your insurer may have the age totally wrong, and it could be costing you dearly. It happened to me. And after I wrote this reported about it , I heard from many others who checked and found out it was happening to them as well.
3. The process of shopping for a home or selling a home changed a lot in 2024. Here’s my write-up on what you need to know.
Three installments for travelers and those who want to travel
1. This was definitely a first—and hopefully a last—for me. This experience I had with crushed luggage was a journey unto itself. Hopefully it can help you.
2. This experience I had with the airline ‘seat switcheroo’ was also a first (and again, hopefully a last). It was also a (very uncomfortable) journey unto itself.
3. If you still want to travel after those two stories, I shared this hack that can be helpful for finding airfares and I hard from many people who were not aware of it.
The merchandise return hub in North Texas
I had to revisit this story from 2024. We set out to find out where all the stuff we return ends up. Turns out that much of it is in North Texas–and is for sale again.
Please make sure you are not risking an unnecessary hazard while driving (a lot of Texans are)
I wanted to re-share this one, too. Texas has the most (still) unfixed airbags from a long-ago recall. And this vulnerability may not age particularly well. Please watch and read this one.
The final nail in our Death Checklist!
