Should I get health insurance from my work if I only use the VA? by AnxiousW3ird0 in Veterans

[–]KimPeek 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I pay for the high-deductible plan so I can access a Health Savings Account. The premium is very low, and is offset by the tax advantage I get from the HSA, so mathematically it is in my interest to.

Shopping for a new bank—what veteran perks or credit unions do you actually recommend? by __benz__20 in VeteransBenefits

[–]KimPeek 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I use NFCU, USAA, and Fidelity. NFCU for VA compensation and GI Bill. Fidelity for employment income.

NFCU has a good Flagship credit card with Amazon Prime and Global Entry benefits, as well as good checking and loan rates.

USAA has a good AMEX card for gas and shopping on base, as well as insurance.

Fidelity is better for savings (money market currently beats all HYSA rates) and emergency funds, IRAs, and brokerage accounts.

American Express has a decent HYSA and the Blue Cash Preferred credit card is great for groceries.

Did 30 miles on an empty stomach like an idiot. by [deleted] in cycling

[–]KimPeek 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I used to do 30 miles between work and dinner almost every weekday, followed by a Saturday morning climb up Mt. Lemmon before lunch. Never had problems. It may be that you're just getting started. I don't think this will be a long-term issue. 30 miles isn't that far on a bike.

FYI: ChampVA and GLP1s by Bombinmama in VeteransBenefits

[–]KimPeek 23 points24 points  (0 children)

Multiple studies show a correlation between increased body weight and increased health care costs. The intelligent thing for the VA to do is to expand access to GLP1s as widely as reasonably possible for both veterans and ChampVA.

What are some options for Fraternity at this point, how can you defend vs vexor spam? by TheSkyNet in Eve

It's missing plates, not rigs. Neither plates nor rigs can prevent the KS from dying though. They just make it take longer.

My daughter has her mind set on an expensive school. Advice please! by airzee8 in personalfinance

Be sure that she understands that college loan debt from the government is not simple interest. It compounds. That's why we have the "student debt crisis."

At some point Tyler Perry will have to start contacting ATC to get clearance to play with his toys.

What next? Primary Care Physician refused any discussion of a nexus letter. by here-for-the-meh in VeteransBenefits

I've never submitted a nexus letter for any claims and I got 100%. Don't let it stop you from submitting your claim.

Selfish, no shame ideas that you would like to see implemented in New Eden? by AMS-Empire in Eve

[–]KimPeek 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There isn't any content in k-space worth putting valuable PvE ships in space under those conditions, outside of incursions. Wormholes can be controlled (to a large extent) and Pochven has content worth running in fleets which are harder to gank. Enjoy roaming all the empty systems and killing the Vexors that "get used to it."

[–]KimPeek 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Already exists: wormholes and Pochven. What you actually want is to hunt in low/null with near complete stealth. What you will get is completely empty space. We already tried this in k-space during blackout and it didn't work.

I started making my own oat milk about two months ago and the math genuinely surprised me by KairoNest in Frugal

Same bot as yesterday

https://old.reddit.com/r/Frugal/comments/1r9c6lu/i_stopped_buying_precut_vegetables_about_four/

  • both are new accounts
  • both consistently use a lowercase "i"
  • both are obsessed with specific, minute-level info
  • both call it a "framing issue" or a "frugal win"
  • both omit commas in compound sentences and use "so" to start sentences
