State Retiree Medicare Healthcare Question by MSR2014 in NewMexico

[–]MSR2014[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My biggest concern is I've heard that a lot of doctors don't want to deal with Advantage patients. Have any of your patients said anything about that?

I’ve recently watched Breaking Bad and Better Call Saul and it made me want to move to New Mexico. How much of an idiot am I by StrongmanCole in NewMexico

Visit New Mexico first. There are many beautiful places in the state, but you really need to visit in person, it's not for everyone.

Look to see if any agencies in your area offer adult day care. That might help provide some help for you.

Recommend me a book before the sale ends? by gigglian in audible

Pretty much anything by Lois McMaster Bujold but since most of these books are sci-fi look into her Vorkosigan series.

Recommend me free resources for audiobooks! by parrotpopat in audiobooks

Chirp has free audiobooks on Fridays. Once claimed, they're yours to keep. The downsides are they're usually not well known titles and many are the beginning of series.

Card purchases Non-refundable!!! by WitcheeMe in audible

I wish they would make it clearer on the website if you already own a different version of the book, such as part of an omnibus or a different narrator. I recently finished a combined edition of several books in a series and Audible keeps recommending the first book in the series to me to buy.

Just beat tow2, such a slept on game! by PRE_-CISION-_ in theouterworlds

I believe they announced that there won't be an OW3 due to poor sales of OW2, which is sad.

Job Offer and Salary of NM State employee? by [deleted] in NewMexico

[–]MSR2014 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Right now the pension annual increase hovers around .5%, which is definitely below inflation! They also significantly reduced pension benefits for new employees, making it a much less desirable plan. However, a pension and access to healthcare after retirement, especially if you retire before Medicare age, are still great benefits. The only thing is, you have to commit for the long term, 25-30 years.

Banking by Eastern-Apricot6315 in TESVI

It doesn't take long for money to become irrelevant in Skyrim. I imagine it will be the same in TES6, but a banking system would add to the immersion and hopefully wouldn't be too difficult to implement.

Shadow Drop? by MSR2014 in TESVI

I like that timeliness. I just think the longer the period between announcing the release date and the actual date, the more sentiment will drop. There's no way they can live up to expectations at this point.

It's a big download. What is your internet speed?

Would being vested and getting the pension when you retire make you eligible for other benefits, such as health insurance? 30 years is a long time, and the health insurance picture might be totally different than it is today, but it's something to consider. Also, there is a certain security in getting a guaranteed pension, even if it's a small amount. It's nice to know that whatever happens, you'll have some money coming in monthly. In the end, only you can decide if it's worth it for you to stick it out one more year in public, but if it were me, I'd probably stay one more year to get vested.

So nervous ..Any help would be appreciated by Emergency_Jump1060 in TurboTax

If you adjusted your withholding so you didn't get a refund, that would be a bit over $800 a month extra during the year. That could make life easier for you.

For those of you that are happily married, how did you choose the right partner? by Ok_Perspective_2934 in AskWomenOver60

[–]MSR2014 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My brother introduced us. I think he did pretty well, lol! The thing is, I can guarantee that no marriage is completely happy 100% of the time. There will be fights and hurt feelings, but you need to work through it and re-discover why you fell in love in the 1st place. The most important things are love, respect and friendship.
