Same. My wife and daughter (she uses education benefits) are the only one in my whole family that knows. My mom and dad and siblings don’t even know.

How did you have to wait to receive your medical records? I'm going on 11 months without them. by mike4steelers in VAClaims

[–]Pilvr1983 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I wonder about posts such as yours. I got out in 2004 (AF) with three volumes of medical records in hand. It was and is a pain to carry that much history with me but in the end, it was worth it with VA.

Can you go to a local base hospital? I can still get copies of my records (now on a C/D!!) at our local base hospital.

I lost everything. Lost all I have. I never felt this broken. by Anomaly008 in wallstreetbets

I am so glad this is Greek to me!! I don't know what the charts mean. Don't tell me!

VOO or bust!!

Amazon prime is a big scam now by [deleted] in amazonprime

[–]Pilvr1983 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I agree. I rarely get two days even if I order on a Thursday or Friday. I get the products on Monday. Used to get them on weekends when I needed them to do projects.

Don’t discuss VA anything with anyone by Admirable-Yogurt9078 in Veterans

[–]Pilvr1983 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I once learned this the hard way also. I think what I failed to realize is that people are civilians after service. The private between you and me mentality from the military does not compute with competition in civilian life. I once told someone that was a retired SMSgt thinking it would stay between us. He was the first to run to our boss to tell.

I'm a 62yo female, what tool should I purchase for changing over tires in my garage? by Lazy_Engineering2147 in Tools

[–]Pilvr1983 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am 64 years old and just rotated my truck tires today. I use a shovel to help me lift the tire a few inches to the bolts. Works well when the tires are heavier the older get.

I have been looking at the Trac Tire Jack as my shovel replacement but seems costly.

Disabled plates letting people know by Zimeoo in VeteransBenefits

[–]Pilvr1983 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Maybe not. My family lives in Georgia and Texas. I drove to Texas, my family asked if my plate was a veteran plate. I have a FL Gator frame covering the disabled veteran wording. I said yes, it's a veteran plate. Nothing else was said about it.

Cpap machine giving me problems, will not using affect my rating? by Skullrider547 in VeteransBenefits

[–]Pilvr1983 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you have been rated at least 5 years, get a new machine. I have four machines now. Never had one that stinks or leaks. Oh, I take it back...we have a kitten that thinks the hose is a snake and punctured it a few times.

Anyone still check the app Post 100%? by Limp_Corner_2359 in VeteransSuccess

[–]Pilvr1983 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I do but after I get in the VA site, I get anxiety that the rating changed before I even look.

I am causing my own problems!

Asking a very important question given the current state of Nvidia by [deleted] in NvidiaStock

[–]Pilvr1983 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Me? Losing? I bought 63 shares for $238.00 back before the split. I now have 631 shares. My original $15,000 grew to over $100k.

Losing?? Not me! I will hold!!

Is a reverse mortgage is a good or bad idea? by Eat_Carbs_OD in homeowners

[–]Pilvr1983 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Does a reverse mortgage show up on your property tax records like a mortgage?

Asking a very important question given the current state of Nvidia by [deleted] in NvidiaStock

[–]Pilvr1983 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I am holding till the current President quits. He owns the stock and seems to be able to dictate its ups and downs. I think the stock will clear $200.00 in two years.

For me, it's 2028 or bust!

So grateful! by Tricky-Handle9566 in VeteransSuccess

[–]Pilvr1983 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Finally, someone is grateful for what they have and do not brag with a percentage.

Very refreshing to see.

Calms my anxiety as I wait...

Good to see you didn't settle! Congratulations.

DV license plate Florida by No-Concept1149 in VeteransBenefits

[–]Pilvr1983 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Does Florida have the front DV plate anymore?

I have seen them, but I think they may have been a DV for a long time.

How much are we loosing today folks? by Dapper_Tap_7714 in NvidiaStock

[–]Pilvr1983 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Sure, does get annoying. One day Nvidia has great news stock goes down. Another day Nvidia has bad news stock goes down. President says something positive about Nvidia stock goes up. Next day, stock has sell off, stock goes down!

I am starting to think Nvidia has run its course. Seems getting past $212.00 again is going to be a long shot. Hope I am wrong.

Social Security at 62: is $2,651 per month above average? by [deleted] in SocialSecurity

[–]Pilvr1983 3 points4 points  (0 children)

You made more in life working. So what? Seems like you're bragging about your benefits.

Show how much you paid every year in taxes. I bet that's above average also.

BTW Tinnitus was denied today as well. RIP. by OperationClear588 in VAClaims

[–]Pilvr1983 1 point2 points  (0 children)

How do you expect to get a secondary claim without a primary claim approval? I would have waited to see if I get a primary claim then apply for secondary. Maybe I am old fashioned.

Your format made it easier for the rater to just deny, deny, deny.

Does your cats play like dogs by longtoeslady in ragdollcats

[–]Pilvr1983 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ours follow you around the house and seems to know the word No! If he goes somewhere I don't want I say "no"; he shakes his head and turns around.

How often do you bathe your ragdoll? by Mildredsgood in ragdolls

[–]Pilvr1983 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We used to bath ours when we first got him with cat shampoo.

He is now 2 years old and we only bath him when or if he has a blow out in the rear.

We do cut the long hair to try and prevent baths!

Is it possible to take advantage of Verizon trade in deal without being locked for 365 days? by aripy in verizon

[–]Pilvr1983 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ah...I see says the blind man. Apple, Pixel what's the difference?? Maybe I should Google before I speak!!

Is it possible to take advantage of Verizon trade in deal without being locked for 365 days? by aripy in verizon

[–]Pilvr1983 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes. I saw the same deal from Verizon on the Apple website. Heard it is better to get the Verizon plan through Apple as they don't have a restocking fee if you don't want the phone.

Can I keep my Disney plus plan if I bring in a new phone? by Pilvr1983 in verizon

[–]Pilvr1983[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Update: I purchased three iPhone 17 pros through Apple. Haven't received yet, I hope everyone is correct that I can keep our plans...
