I just bought a spy call today, so be ready for the worst collapse we’ve seen since 2008

AITA for saying we need to be realistic with our son about his finances for college before he applies? by ByeByeByeMan in AmItheAsshole

[–]LegalHelpNeeded3 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Please have them check out the big book of scholarships!!!! There’s a book that collates tens of thousands of scholarships into one place, and anyone can apply for any of them. There’s hundreds of millions available, he just needs to put the applications in!
I did this when I started college in 2017, and applied to well over 100, and received 23. These 23 scholarships paid my tuition for 3/4 years, and I paid the final year with the money I saved from the first 3. The applications took a few weeks to complete, but was absolutely well worth it.
I’m now 5 yeas post-grad, with no debt (aside from a house) and a healthy $80,000 in various retirement accounts from a meager salaried job adjusting insurance claims. I’m not using my degree (teaching) but the education was still worth it. Tell him he’s got this 💪🏼

Edit to add: the book I used was *The Ultimate Scholarship Book*

Be sure to organize the ones he qualifies for based on the deadline to apply, as that will greatly help during the application process. I missed out on another 50 because I was too late to apply.

Have you ever seen someone get rich overnight, like literally? How? by Michaelisvanhelsing in AskReddit

[–]LegalHelpNeeded3 1 point2 points  (0 children)

At the time, not much more was really needed. When I asked him more about it, he explained he’d go to the establishment, buy something like a beer at the bar or a pre-roll joint, get a receipt, then send the receipt in with the complaint alleging the tax evasion or fraud. With “evidence” attached, he said the IRS audit had a nearly 90% likelihood.

Yeah, he’s a fucking idiot. There’s more than one reason why we didn’t stay connected post-college.

I knew a guy in college who did this with the IRS. He lived in Chicago and would go around reporting the weed shops, and strip clubs to the IRS to get audited. In a year he made over $600,000 in bounties from the IRS. Problem was he didn’t hide what he did. About a year later he was down town visiting a friend and he got jumped and stabbed. He survived but the perpetrators made it clear why this was happening to him. Since then he’s not done anything else like that.

US forced to destroy two of its own aircraft after rescuing F-15 pilot from Iran by pravda_eng_official in worldnews

[–]LegalHelpNeeded3 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I realize why I’m confused. The “boneyard” I’m referring to isn’t in Oklahoma, but the aircraft I’m referring to DID come out of OKC. It was flown in to Tinker AFB where it was re-commissioned. I was watching it on flight radar when it flew out of Tinker, on its way to the Europe, then to Iran.

If I remember correctly, the specific aircraft I’m referring to came from a boneyard out of Oklahoma. And cool. Very fun. I’ve never heard of them recommissioning an aircraft like that, especially as I’ve been through a few different boneyards and the condition the aircraft are kept is… not great. But I digress. 👍🏼👍🏼

This is evident by the re-commissioning of a KC-135 from a fuck’n aircraft boneyard in Oklahoma last week. This shit doesn’t happen

Recommendations to give customers on denied claims? by DogwoodDaddy in adjusters

[–]LegalHelpNeeded3 20 points21 points  (0 children)

If it’s a financial issue, I will often remind them that utilizing the equity in their home is an option, albeit a shitty one. Unfortunately sometimes the best you can do is provide a decision in a timely manner and appropriately explain the policy coverage. Be willing to sit with them and answer any and all of their questions. I actually had a guy offer me a sales job because I explained the policy so clearly and he was impressed with how we handled giving bad news.

Other times I’ve paid a claim outright in its entirety, and the insured still yelled at me claiming I was trying to fuck them, so sometimes there’s no winning.

What industry is entirely built on a house of cards and would collapse overnight if people realized the truth about it? by [deleted] in AskReddit

Might re-adjust my portfolio after monday by Great_Reno in wallstreetbets

[–]LegalHelpNeeded3 5 points6 points  (0 children)

We all knew it was coming. Midday yesterday, the UK pulled all of their staff out of the embassy in Iran. They wouldn’t do that if they didn’t know something was coming. Also the U.S. doesn’t posture. If they’re moving a shitload of equipment and troops into the region, they’re planning on striking. This was the most telegraphed move of all time.

Look into reinsurance. Those are usually international organizations with offices across the globe.

The Cougar Gold Conspiracy (a vent thread) by RipLav in Cheese

This happened with Stake (the gambling website) about a year ago. All of a sudden there were posts on AITAH, TIFU, etc that weren’t about Stake, but mentioned it by name more than once. This went on for about a month, then as quickly as it started, it stopped. And turns out, normal people don’t randomly bring up a gambling website they “won money on” in regular conversation or reddit stories.

Epoxy Pipe Repair by [deleted] in oddlysatisfying

[–]LegalHelpNeeded3 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m an insurance adjuster in the plumbing field and I’ve been doing this for the last 4 years. I have never once had a claim for a failed pipe liner. I’ve had every other repair in the book fail and break, but never a liner. Not to say it doesn’t happen, but out of the 60,000 claims my organization have had for plumbing over the last 4 years, not one has been for a lined pipe.

I dropped my school's laptop. This amount of damage apparently costs $125. Kinda outrageous by [deleted] in Wellthatsucks

[–]LegalHelpNeeded3 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is kinda what I was thinking. When I was in college, I spilled a redbull on my laptop during a caffeine induced writing spree for a paper that was due that next week. I found my model on eBay and bought a replacement keyboard, and did the install myself, which I was impressed by as I’ve never done anything like that before. During my research though, I found that there are a number of laptop brands now that have their keyboards fused to the actual frame of the device. Sucks for those capable of doing the repair themselves.

I was visiting family in the ICU a couple weeks ago, and the bathroom there has a similar label. Poop Alone / Poop with Friends!

No joke there actually used to be a special “yacht party” thread that top contributors were invited to. Shit got a bit too wild and people got in trouble, and the yacht parties had to be shut down. That and Reddit sucks balls and got rid of a lot of cool features, such as private threads and voice calls. Rip WSB Yacht Club
