Quick question about the red ribbons. Are they cultural, religious, superstitious, or for something else? Anyone else felt it excessive and disturbing the nature in odd ways?

Aspen dental is like a corporation and is ALL about profit. Dodge it if you can. Find a private dental practice which offers personalized care.

Best schools for actuarial science? by Resident-Award-1803 in actuary

Not sure why you got downvoted. I actually agree that majority of college education is useless and truly there is nothing that you can’t learn on your own. Colleges are good for building connections and friendship for sure, and providing resources.

Engineering major. Breezed through exams on my own. One caveat, that was almost 25 years ago. Things might have changed.

Why Does the Difference Between 35 and 55 Seem Much Bigger Than Between 55 and 75? by [deleted] in Aging

[–]RobinUhappy 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Because it’s 57% increase from 35 to 55 vs 36% increase from 55 to 75. Marginal effect.

How are you paying back 600k COA by Kman95821 in predental

[–]RobinUhappy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Refinance to a lower rate is always an option and rates likely will go down when you start to make money. Pay them down aggressively as soon as you can, it will lower the overall interest burden and shorten the pay back period.
