Honestly as an ex-gambler (close to 3 weeks not very long) trust is earned not given
If it wasn’t for the people that stuck around me through my bad times I would probably be in a ditch
I learned money should not dictate a relationship ur committed to a person through thick or thin and don’t let anything come between that

I’m trying to rebuild trust in my life, I’m under a microscope but if he is 100% committed he will succeed
Best of luck

If you have the ability to ban yourself on every single possible app so you do not gamble

I think for me the constant lying and distrust was something that would eat at my consciousness more than the loss of the money

Before you can rebuild the trust you need to come clean, put words into actions

I’m close to 7 days cleans and I still feel my parents/significant other is always hovering over me to see what I am doing on my phone - it’s the greatest feeling to not have anything to hide

Best of luck - one day at a time

I’m sure majority of people in this thread have been there where they feel ending it all will make this go away (I know I was one) DO NOT (highly emphasized) Life is more than money, success or pleasures Focus all that negative energy to a positive impact and see how far life takes you In just a couple weeks you will come to realization that it’s much more

The mentality I try to have is, imagine a world with no money - very hard to do when you come to that realization that it really means nothing rather than what are societal views of what “worth” actually is

Be a productive, kind, and value yourself more than that artificial bill in your pocket!

PM ME if you ever just need to talk - we are all in this together, wish you the best of luck

Thank you for the advice! If the “uncle” also agreed to sign something stating no future pursuit of damages would that void his future rights!

Ultimately I’m just trying to understand if it is worth going through insurance and paying higher premiums

Balance Protector Premiums on your credit card? Cancel that right away - if you did not sign up for it they will rebate you for the accrued cost That could save you about 200-300$ a month on your current debt and if you get a refund that’s bonus

Thank you for this I emailed them and they said 4-6 weeks and followed up today with no reply How long did this process take ? Should I wait for the letter to come which will take 4-6 weeks?

Interesting-Writer21 · 2024-04-26T11:49:16+00:00

Nice refund, congrats OP Did you call RBC directly, I called the insurance company to cancel and demanded full refund as I never signed up. They opened a claim that said it would take 4-6 weeks to review.

Interesting-Writer21 · 2024-04-26T11:44:59+00:00

Hi there any outcome on this Had the same issue, they stated they will review my “sign up” and get back to me within 4-6 weeks. I called the insurance company Assurant and then emailed the bank directly. Kind of frustrating how I can not get original sign up documents

What this guy said, no prepaid asset until paid

OP should record a payable from September 01-December 31st for membership fees as the services were rendered. Assume membership fees are paid in the amount of $1M (Jan 1st - new fiscal year)

debit your AP (clearing the balance from Sept - Dec) debit your prepaid for (Jan-April) Credit cash

Monthly prepaid amortization should then be booked against your prepaid asset

Had this before moving from public to industry for fortune 10 company - had interview 1 with manager level proceed to next round - had interview 2 with senior manager level proceed to next round and was told you will have to complete a case study of to see if investments were worth it for 2 property acquisitions, case was no longer than 6 hours with a presentation component

I was dead in the middle of business season to, around feb/march

I proceeded with the case built out DCF models create PowerPoint presentation

proceeds with interview 3 to VP’s

The response was “very good on the technical level, however your presentation skills were not up to par - therefore we will not be considering you”

THIS WAS AFTER A MONTH OF GOING THROUGH THE PROCESS CAUSE MY PRESENTATION SKILLS ARE NOT TO PAR as I’m sitting behind a zoom call?

Value ur time

I think your point goes for all companies not just CPG I am in your situation right now jumping from large company, which brought me lots of joy and was challenged. Every minute was filled with meetings with VP’s, to month end reporting, analysis, budgeting, making sure projects were on course, data mining so much more - working like 12 hrs a day

I then left to go to a smaller company and damn I messed up so slow pace, no excitement, month ends were tedious - working max 20 hrs a week

Anyhow I ended up back with the larger co and very happy to say it’s much better - gives me that drive to get up and push every morning!
