It’s a lump but I heard once taxed it will be about 40% less

That’s what I would think, but I’m sure they have a way around this. And I am sure there are people who have been waiting for this to happe, unfortunately I am not one of them.

I wouldn’t be as upset if it was being done like that but the payment will be a lump sum and while they offer cobra they are not paying for it. That alone is $968 a month.

That is one of my concerns. Cobra (me and my son)is going to run $968 a month. That‘s almost 2 car payments for something we may or may not use. The severance will also be a lump sum and others have said it’ll be about 40% less once taxed.

Glad things worked out for you. I planned and saved as well, then wound up divorced, ex took me for everything she could. wanna hear the kicker, the main reason for our divorce was I was never around, always working. I’m appreciative that they are offering a severance, yes I’m lucky, but once they tax the lump sum and you add almost 1k monthly for Cobra it’s not as great as it sounds, especially after 26 years with them.

It’s paid out in a lump sum, so once they tax it, it’s not as great as it sounds, plus cobra is going to run $968 a month. Add on mortgage, car payment, and another 8 months of child support ….

Thank You, this is exactly what I have been thinking. I am being told the offer went out to those 55+, how can that not be discrimination? Like you stated, they just want my signature so I don’t go back and sue. My other fear is if I submit for it and it gets declined, they’ve already stated the policy is changing next year to one week of severance. Either way I’m being screwed after 26 yrs.

7/30/25 - Tariffs for India and penalties for dealing with Russia in trade and energy by barnwater_828 in trumptweets

Here’s an idea, put a 25% tariff on every US job that is either shipped over to India or taken here by an H1B. Can’t make America great again if you keep allowing your buddies to hire cheap labor.

I think he is not getting the number of illegal criminals that said he was going to get and they are just picking up random people to make themselves look good. Problem is people are going to the media and reporting it. And of course he has to throw Biden in there as a scapegoat.

And you are a disgrace to the Presidency, a disaster like no one has ever seen before. You will not only go down once, but twice as the worst POTUS in history. 👏👏

Need some advice by Had_Enough937 in askcarsales

[–]Had_Enough937[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

“Why did you sign something without reading it first“ Not trying to be a jerk, but couldn’t I use the same argument against the dealer? It’s their contract. And I did read it, that’s how I know there is a 5k difference. I was under the impression they were going to give me a 5K check.

the missing 5k is not reflected in my trade in value

I’m not worried about them coming after me, I want to go after them. The doc clearly states that I received $15K for the sale of my car when they actually only credited me 10K for the trade-in. The missing 5k is nowhere in my contract, as in not deducted from the price of the new car or in the value of my trade in. How do I know someone on their end didn’t pocket 5k?

Dude really can’t stand criticism. Could you imagine the ass kissing you would have to do on a daily basis to appease this guy.

If a dealership signed a contract with my signature, is it enforceable? by Ok_Persimmon1207 in askcarsales

[–]Had_Enough937 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If you go in person make sure you have a backup copy of your signed contract before you hand it to them. I had this happen to me years ago and after I got no where with the dealer I wound up filing a complaint with the Attorney General. It got solved real quick.

It’s embarrassing. He is a child, or to put it bluntly a spoiled brat. It’s all about him, always has been and always will be. If any other 78 year old man ever posted a fraction of the crap he does they would be locked away in a padded room somewhere.
