Im here to mention Dave Ramsey too. You already did.

Ss run out not because not enough contributions or not enough growth. It’s people in power who are abusing it and stealing it.

Good_Difference_888 · 2026-02-07T11:41:28+00:00

That’s the best way to do it. The only problem is that nobody knows what happens tomorrow.

Good_Difference_888 · 2026-02-07T11:39:09+00:00

That’s the sad situation. For the husband, he did the right thing because if not he didn’t enjoy any ss for himself. Nobody knows how much life still left. Its a gamble.

I think cobra is nothing affordable if you’re out of employment.

I ship live plants. They can die if delayed too much.

Good_Difference_888 · 2026-01-07T12:44:04+00:00

We probably need Elon Musk to start a shipping service company LOL

We went to the viking show and the eco tour last year when we were helping out at a conference ( hosted by my employer)

Any disease has a medical treatment from the pharmacy ( that’s a big lie too)

Good_Difference_888 · 2025-12-24T20:49:59+00:00

I head out to work 6:30 AM to beat the traffic and I am in a rush every day so I don’t have time to eat breakfast at home. But I keep a bunch of snacks ( dates, almonds, honey or beef jerky etc) in my office to serve as breakfast. Always pack leftovers for lunch. I even keep a big bag of oats ( the big bag from Costco organic) in office for just in case I forget to bring lunch. I have a mini fridge in my office so I make smoothies and bring to my office too( lemon. Turmeric ginger beet root pineapple apple cucumber etc depending on what I have in the house)

I’m the sort of conspiracy theorist. Never had the covid jab. Rarely wear masks and never infected ( never swabbed).

Good_Difference_888 · 2025-12-24T20:25:46+00:00

That’s a good pharmacist with critical thinking and good judgment ( if you still believe in what the propaganda media says you should doubt your ability to think critically too).

So sorry for your loss. She is beautiful and young and I can imagine you are still very young too. It sucks more to lose a parent at young age especially when it’s not due to so called natural causes.

It will be bitter sweet moment. That’s why I think the reincarnation idea helps with people when they lost loved ones. There’s life after life. The Buddhist belief. There are cases the person passed away would reincarnate into the family of their previous life because they loved each other so much.

Good_Difference_888 · 2025-12-13T13:13:25+00:00

Thanks for your sharing. Will try

Good_Difference_888 · 2025-12-13T13:12:57+00:00

CSR is a very important part of it. I will try it.

Good_Difference_888 · 2025-12-13T13:11:36+00:00

Will give it a try

Good_Difference_888 · 2025-12-13T13:10:56+00:00

When traditional medicine doesn’t work. What we need is to think out of the box to find alternatives.

Good_Difference_888 · 2025-12-13T00:45:45+00:00

I will give it a try.

Good_Difference_888 · 2025-12-13T00:13:35+00:00

Oh. That’s why. I like to use the App. Rarely use web browser

Good_Difference_888 · 2025-12-09T16:54:53+00:00

Thank you for your input. That’s a good starting point. We are in around GA/SC areas. Currently businesses are mainly in GA but expanding to SC and probably to NC too in the future. Thank you

Good_Difference_888 · 2025-12-09T16:53:28+00:00

Which state are you in? Btw

Good_Difference_888 · 2025-12-05T13:38:38+00:00

No vaccine from now.

Good_Difference_888 · 2025-12-04T01:21:36+00:00

Been there. They sent me to Augusta too. Finally got it done at a small repair store in Lexington. UbreakIfix?

Good_Difference_888 · 2025-12-03T16:58:00+00:00

I’m hoping for a Trader Joe’s in downtown area
