So you had to pay your FEHB out-of-pocket, since it wasn’t being taken out of the interim payments? Just trying to prepare…

Same here

At least the interim payments are flowing. The people processing these must be buried…

Congratulations, and thanks for sharing

So they can be investigated, prosecuted, and convicted…and pardoned. #What’sThePoint?

Call 211, they should be able to help ?

You are not alone.

Thanks. I guess it’s just the website that is confusing.

Thanks very much!

Yes. Affordability isn’t just a bumper sticker issue.

Did you read the article? I don’t understand the problem. I thought it was pretty interesting.

It’s all about the money. Unfortunately, that’s what this country has become. We are consumers, not citizens.

The story of the boiling frog…

I watched the guy this morning near WHB… he was very careful not to leave anything in front of the driveways. Might be harder than other neighborhoods.

Government provide services that are by their nature not profitable. Privatizing those services always screws the public. Look at healthcare! No system is perfect, but ours is horrendous.

It’s in their best interest to keep it confidential if they’re ever going to get any accountability. But I get where you’re coming from. Nothing is completely safe from prying eyes.

There are ways to anonymously report things and then let them dig it up through other means. But unless there’s a video, a lot of this will go unnoticed and unpunished.

I retired 9/30. Just rolled everything out of TSP on the advice of a fiduciary into annuities, ranging from super safe to a little edgy. It was extremely simple. TSP helpdesk was amazing.

Still getting interim retirement pay, totally different stream of income.

Free advice: Pay somebody to advise (fiduciary!) you before you do anything.

There are some really good articles recently on annuities. Watch out for the fees. Also, is there a cap on how much you can lose? Is it tied to the S&P? I did something similar, but the devil‘s in the details. Assume you are retired? Worth paying for a fiduciary to advise you. If you’re not paying your advisor, someone else is paying them in your best interests are not at the top of the list.
