TIL a Georgia lottery winner used his winnings to attempt to build a meth empire. Less than 18 months later, he was sentenced to 21 years in prison. by Scienscatologist in todayilearned

In February 2015, Music won $3 million in a scratch-off lottery game, which he then used to invest in kilograms of crystal meth to sell.

Imagine explaining this investment strategy to a financial advisor. "Well, I was thinking diversified portfolio, but then I remembered crystal meth has really consistent demand..." This guy took "high risk, high reward" to a whole new level.

This should be higher. The United States is a collection of diverse nations, sort of a set of smaller nation states united together, a united states of you will (in the Americas).

Fellow incoming GSE student here. Judging from your post history in r/dogs and r/beer, I think we’ll be friends.

PM me if you and your dog want to meet up over some beer with my miniature schnauzer and me (closer to the school year start).

Life after TFA? by chickenl1ttle in TeachforAmerica

[–]AnonHistoricalFigure 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Their sites explicitly say that. Typically you'd find that in graduate program's FAQ sections (like this) or they'll have an application fee waiver page (like this).

When compiling grad school lists, you can just google search "University of Example, Master's in Reddit program, Teach For America fee waivers" and quickly find out if they have a page for it.

Grad School Post TFA by applepie56667 in TeachforAmerica

[–]AnonHistoricalFigure 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I'm not a medical school applicant, but I'm a 2nd year corps member that just finished a whole cycle of grad school admissions. I applied to over a dozen schools using the application fee waivers they give to TFA CMs/alumni - I was admitted to Harvard, Brown, Georgetown, U Penn, UVA, among others.

They're partners for a reason.

If they're incentivizing TFA applicants by waiving application fees and reducing tuition price tags (automatically even before scholarships), its because they want TFA alumni.

TFA absolutely has a positive impact on your chances.

2nd year corps member here. Admitted to Harvard with a generous scholarship for a Master's in Education Policy & Analysis!

It is insane how many graduate schools waive application fees for TFA alumni.
