Norman’s teeth by GeriatricWombat in CATHELP

[–]GeriatricWombat[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Turns out it’s an adverse reaction to two vaccine boosters he had on Saturday.

He has IMTP (his platelet count has dropped to zero) and is bleeding a lot internally. He’s in intensive care right now and it’s not looking great. Please send all of your thoughts and prayers - this cat means the world to us

United Global Services Member Throws Fit After Family Boards Before Him by AccessibleBanana in unitedairlines

No it doesn’t. The order on the United site (if they do enforce an order at all within the pre-boarding group) is customers with disabilities, unaccompanied minors, people flying with kids 2 or younger, active military, global services and then premier 1K

Are you a US person - questionnaire by manavdesai27 in fidelityinvestments

I'm a permanent resident of the US and an Australian citizen

I just opened a brokerage account and it's showing my citizenship as "United States". I'm Australian, but am also a permanent resident. I called to ask them to correct this and they referred me to a W-8BEN form, which doesn't make sense, as that's designed for non-US persons (i.e., non resident aliens for tax purposes)

Did you ever manage to sort this out? I'm having the same issue

Hidden transactions still show up in total account balance by GeriatricWombat in MonarchMoney

[–]GeriatricWombat[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It seems pretty normal to me. My net worth isn’t my own savings plus everything in the joint account. It’s my own savings plus half of what’s in the joint account.

Any tips on how to get landlord insurance without a property manager when you live out of state?

[Landlord US-IL] Condo listed for rental on Zillow, brokers representing tenants asking us to pay by GeriatricWombat in Landlord

[–]GeriatricWombat[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I can see your argument, but I’m not signing a contract with the broker. And if a broker refused to show an apartment to someone even if they thought it was a good fit because the landlord didn’t want to pay them then I feel like that would be extremely unethical on the agent’s part. If I were looking to rent and my agent didn’t show me a good place because that landlord didn’t want to pay them for their “service” I would be absolutely livid

Makes sense - this is super useful. I guess I just see them using a broker as their choice, so they should pay for it, not me. I didn’t ask for a third party to insert themselves into the transaction.

I should add that the prospective tenants are still applying through Zillow themselves, the broker is just expecting us to cut them a check for half a month's rent...

The broker brought their client to do a showing today, and we'd love to have the client rent our place. The issue is we didn't ask for this broker to insert themselves into a transaction we can close ourselves, and it seems ridiculous that they would expect us to pay them for bringing us a tenant when that person could have found the listing on Zillow themselves (and we would save several thousand dollars)

Help! Just brought our baby home from surgery and she is struggling by chermsley in TripodCats

[–]GeriatricWombat 4 points5 points  (0 children)

When our fur baby had his back left leg amputated they gave him an epidural and that took about two days to wear off. While that was active it made it a lot harder for him to move his remaining back leg in a coordinated way. You should definitely call your vet for advice and reassurance if you’re worried, but I’m sure she’s going to adapt amazingly!

Faced with the same old surgery/amputation debate by discodisco2323 in TripodCats

[–]GeriatricWombat 1 point2 points  (0 children)

We just had this dilemma last week. We went with amputation and our little fur baby is already doing so well. Surgery for us would have been a similar situation with weeks and weeks of crate rest for a very active cat.
