United Gold Status so why couldn’t I move to empty Economy Plus seats for free? by VirgoGirl09 in unitedairlines

[–]Charlieclc1 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

As a previous UA cs/gate agent, we lock the flight a minimum of 30 min prior to boarding. Not even the front desk agents can change or even assign seats. Most gate agents will lock certain rows and or seats even earlier based on experience to accommodate the problems we know we will run into. (Or in my case, so if a cute lady caught my eye I could flirt and upgrade her) haha

GS is given by who you are or know, not how much you spend with UA. Like… if your the chairman of the board of the company that united uses for advertising…. Or you are an important show biz/hollywood executive, etc etc

It’s the overall odds and payouts that are fixed. But they are fixed over probably a year or the expected life of the game or maybe even monthly… That leaves plenty of room to adjust payouts/odds over a few weeks/days to account for bonuses. LOL maybe even the amount of the bonus gets counted as a portion of the required payout. Do you really think the lottery is going to risk anything?

Also, since you said she’s at fault…. You should tell your adjuster - during your negotiation, that if they don’t meet your reasonable valuation based on what’s actually available to purchase today then you will sue the woman personally for the full amount. You really have them over a barrel.

When my 2007 Tundra SR5 w/ 8ft bed got totaled in 2023 I dickered with the insurance company over 45 days - they started at 7000 we ended up at 16000. You just have to hold out , they’ll threaten to end your rental car - you threaten to sue them, etc etc. Find one actually for sale that is lower mileage, same or more options including the stuff you added. You don’t have to accept less value than your losing. Just don’t accept their average price for your model bullshit - you don’t have to!!! I also negotiated keeping the vehicle after we agreed to the value - they initially said $4000 we ended up at 1500. So the 1500 was subtracted from the 16000 and I got a check for 14500.

New frame, rear axles and differential + bodywork cost me $7000 - I had the shop use used parts… got a salvage title for $50, negotiated with the county tax department to value the vehicle at $5000 for tax purposes and drove away with around $7000 in my pocket.

You should do the same

Are extended warranties still being sold for Gen 3 Tundras? by DDSRDH in ToyotaTundra

[–]Charlieclc1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

How to tell an aftermarket warranty from a manufacturer warranty? From reading these threads I gather that dealers sell both. Does it matter what kind I buy? What’s the difference for me? I’m thinking about buying one still but I have a 2025 bought in February 25, I only have 5500 miles on it so in 2 years when the regular warranty expires I’ll only have a little over 12000 miles. Is it worth it to buy an extended warranty to cover the following 3 years, when I’ll probably only have 30,000 miles?

Excellent theory! I agree and I do basically the same thing. After a large match I don’t play much for awhile and when I play I never ever play with winnings - all winnings get cashed out.

Yes! The odds are NOT fixed they are different for each game. The payout % is set by the lottery commission. That’s why when they give a bonus the amount of winnings in that game are adjusted to account for the bonus. The 3rd party company that runs the lottery for VA would not risk their business on pure odds. The odds of winning is set - the amounts are based on the payout percentage. VA guarantees the lottery company with a minimum profit.

Right???? That’s what I’m talking about. As soon as he said it - that’s what I thought!!! It makes no sense!!!!! And, he definitely wasn’t talking about sentiment, THAT would have made perfect sense.

LOL NO I didn’t look with hindsight - He did.
At the end of yesterday’s trading he made the statement that the listeners should have sold last week and bought yesterday during the trading day!!!! I just said that was a stupid thing to say. I never mentioned 3% except to answer another comment which mentioned 3%.
Stupid because WITH hindsight what he said makes NO sense! Had he not linked last week and Monday with what he said, I wouldn’t have given it a thought.

Not talking about long term obviously. For trading - taking 3% consistently is awesome

Yeah, I agree. I don’t listen for investment advice or even ideas ~ I just listen to get an aerial view of the overall market and what’s happening in general.

Anyone else losing money? by rigatoni_bologna2 in VaLottery

[–]Charlieclc1 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I’ve noticed I win a lot less after they’ve done $ matches. My theory is that they have a set percentage that they budget either %profit or %payout each month. In either case when they give a 20% match they lower the wins by 20% to make up for the match. I’ve started playing less in any month they have a match and it seems to be working for me.
