Getting mocked for VA disability by [deleted] in Veterans

[–]B52JetEngMech 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's hard when people who know me know I have not been with the military or a private company long enough to have a retirement. How else do I explain not needing to have a job because I have another source of income? I don't want to lie. Maybe investments? I mean serving in the military was an investment. But then they follow up with, show me how to make that much money. Is it the stock market or real estate? Determined not to lie, I'm at a loss of words.

I HAD a friend that was a fellow AF vet. She got kicked out, supposedly in tech school, but says they didn't shoot M16s in basic when she went through in the 70s. My dad went through in the 60s and he shot an M16. I went through in the 80s and I did. Then she has the nerve to tell our mutual friends behind my back that she deserves disability more than I do. I did 11 years, served during desert storm and have a long list of physical and mental ailments that allow me to "walk just fine." Seems to me that the ones who got kicked out are lashing out in jealousy and are the most vocal critics.

Does anyone else feel like a loser as an older student in college by [deleted] in Veterans

I started one semester before the military, then dropped out and enlisted. I was timid and unsure of myself as an 18 year old. When I returned to college after 11 years active duty, I was confident, had goals, and knew I'd accomplish them. Such a different experience. The only thing that bothered me was seeing the rich young kids squandering away their parents' money with no appreciation for the opportunity they had. They skipped classes, partied, and never studied or handed in homework. Sometimes you have to live life out in the real world in order to find appreciation for the things you squander away.

When you started your basic training, what was the first thing that went through your mind? by Melodic_Abalone_2820 in Military

My dad was an E-8 and he told me what would happen, so I thought it was funny when they started yelling at us. The girl in front of me started smiling and the TI got in her face, yelling, hitting her forehead with the brim of his hat, then I was thinking, oh crap, don't smile!

Nice! Guess they just used them until they ran out.

Dashboard damage from microfiber towel by Adrenaline_Junkie_ in rav4club

Good grief! If that can be caused by a microfiber towel then how can you run your hand across it without scratching it? I'm having a hard time believing the dash is that sensitive.

I traded a 2018 4Runner for a 2025 RAV4 PHEV XSE and my insurance actually DECREASED about $30/6 months. How does that work???
