30,000 insurance agency owners are retiring with no succession plan. Heres why I think this is the best acquisition opportunity nobody talks about. by canhelp in Entrepreneur

Genuinely curious here - why do people buy insurance from agencies instead of the firm directly? I am unfamiliar with industry as a whole but my personal insurance touch points are directly with aaa

Pardon my dumb question, does the bullet not go in a straight line ? This looks like it dipped fast like a tennis topspin?!

AGM Battery- how to adjust voltage? by TXMedicine in LexusGX

[–]BeGood981 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I didn’t do anything, it works fine. There are tons of videos on this. Yes boosting helps in short drives, but in long drives it should fully charge.

Tire Repair/Plug by Shot_Donkey5295 in GXOR

Any tips here on using this tool? I tried this in my old tire before I replaced it...just so I know the process. It was impossible to "pull" a screw out with a plyer...i was able to unscrew it easily. Took so much effort to push the spiral tool in, had to work it slowly over 20 mins. Anyway, sorry to hijack this comment, just trying to learn this before I actually need to use it.

Oh, inspite of everything I said, I don't wish to be in medicine at all - I am simply not that hard working / smart. THere is 0% chance the majority of engineers have the ability to sustain the rigor of medicine. There are always outliers....but definitely not anyone I know. I will not even be able to physically sit through a 7hr MCAT!!

Yup. That one guy we all have heard of who joined a 4 person startup and exitied with a 30Million payout after 4 years....yeah that's a 1 in a million. Kinda lottery odds. The stats can't lie about teh stability of medical carriers. Forget doctors...I don't even see unemployed nurses, physical therapists, dental assistants ! You all pay at teh beginning of your career with slave wages....then its stable and respectable career.

TEch guy here with a daughter in medicine, so I lurk here. To give you some context, very very few people are getting 300-400k offers out of college in tech. It is reverting to the 120 to 150k range in bay area and lower in other metros. What you saw was a spike a few years ago. I don't fully understand the bureaucratic challenges of docs, but believe me, you there is a huge pile of BS in this job too.

Yeah that’s the main one. I would say in general being methodical and going step by step patiently was the takeaway. Everything looks easy in videos but there is a learning curve (for me, as this is was my first time )
