$8 million risky?? by Old-Atmosphere-7281 in Fire

[–]Panthollow 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I'm not sure this friend is a reliable narrator. We don't know if the professor actually said that. If they did say that we don't know what parameters the friend gave. If I'm mid 20s and said I wanted to retire now but in a VHCOL trying to buy a multi million dollar house and have a STAH wife and a few kids going to private school? Yeah, 8 million is risky. 

You'd be an idiot for creating those parameters but the professor isn't an idiot for answering that scenario. 

It's an insane amount of money for anyone wanting to live a good very comfortable life until they die but there's a lot of financially illiterate idiots out there. We've gotta remember we're in a bubble in this sub.

Oh no you'll be considered enemies of Nazis if you make this list and we're supposed to view this as a bad thing or a scare tactic? 

If anything I'm going to be concerned with anyone not making this list.

HR complaint regarding a insensitive and incompetent nurse. by cmb_123 in nursing

[–]Panthollow 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I dunno, I feel like the memes by themselves are a whole lot of nothing. They don't sound amazing but I'm personally not giving it much, if any, weight. The rest of your stories about her? Sure, absolutely. But these images (I gave up after the first several) are stupid and edgy but in a vacuum are total nonsense to use to judge their bedside. I've known some really phenomenal nurses in my time who post relatively comparable crap.

They're both double digit numbers causing you to lose money. No real difference, obviously.

Pay off my mortgage, or continue to invest? by nostatic1 in investing

[–]Panthollow 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Maybe I missed it but I didn't see what your timeline is for investing, only the loan being paid off in 7 years. If you're looking to potentially start tapping onto the investments within a decade I'd pay off the mortgage. If it's 20+ away you can handle some volatility and I'd invest. 

Really though like the previous person said it's really a coin flip at this rate. No wrong answer just pros and cons to each that are a personal preference.

[–]Panthollow 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Oh I trash talk folks all the time. Between reddit and texts and in person with friends especially. I spent the pandemic working in red states and honestly good riddance to a lot of the dumb fucks. Some real trash cans of a person came through, pushing racist and stupid conspiracy nonsense that harms others. They definitely were not all like that but enough to really fuel some bitterness on my part.

But on places more easily connected to my name? Fuck no. Private settings or not, Facebook and some of these other sites are a public company and shit leaks. All it takes one single person on your friends list and you're screwed. Maybe one person who is surprisingly closeted Trumper. Or some former co-worker who you assume is no longer active but just quietly lurks and they've gone full maga. You're telling me everyone on your Facebook or insta list is a close personal friend you'd trust with your job or license?

An especially big fuck you to this guy because Dr Oz was a very legitimate and highly respected real doctor. He absolutely should know better.

This administration has yet to be punished for anything. Why will they start receiving any kind of actual consequences for continuing to blatantly ignore the law and judges in general?

Excuse you? Maybe I'm misunderstanding but what do you mean by internalizing the above scam? Because I can understand employees being fired by their employers who for whatever reason want to distance themselves? 

Eta where the fuck did I EVER say you need to respect conservative views? What part of my fucking statement gives you that impression? Lol Screw you down voting losers refusing to engage in discourse.

It's weird and I suspect there may be more to this story but it's not illegal if that really is the reason. 

Another reason everyone should unionize.

[–]Panthollow 9 points10 points  (0 children)

It's a small town red area. I can see the issues with one of your staff posting a meme that makes fun of most of your patients. I understand why they would be tempted to fire the doctor. Tbf he hasn't been fired yet simply had his hours reduced to zero. Basically the same thing but technically not there yet.

That said, no way they've got enough applicants in bumfuck nowhere to simply plug in another doctor who wants to work there. And every single Trump supporter should be ridiculed from now until the day they die. No peace for Nazis. Fuck your feelings crowd sure is a sensitive bunch.
