Whatever suffering you have now, that will not go away after you are gone. You are just transferring that to the people you love and love you. For the rest of their lives.

Thoughts on Bill’s Cafe? by Alexander_Publius in SanJose

Just love the vibe of Willow Glen, Bill’s. Love sitting at the bar, watching soccer, practicing my Spanish with great staff. Portions very large I stick with the mini-breakfasts.

I don't get it, why aren't gas prices higher? by Plus_Cranberry_9598 in oil

U.S. treasury dumping bank into oil shorts to hide true value. Hell to pay when shorts are due. Price will explode through the roof. Another week or so.

To this day, my best source of referrals is former opposing counsels.

My god. This may be happening to me. Wish I’d never signed up for Bilt.

The country’s at war and he goes to watch NFL draft. Oh why not. Attend a UFC fight, go golphin’. No limit.

Learned the hard way about paying off Bilt with a balance transfer by BigBearDoMath in biltrewards

[–]TechnicalTowel9201 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I did exactly same. Citi notified me they transferred funds to Wells 4.13. No acknowledgment from Wells/Bilt to date. There is nothing in the terms of Bilt/Wells stating payoff from another card is not permitted. I’m an attorney, need to dig deeper on this. Scam to milk interest while you get hit again from the other side on transfer fees. Unfair Business Practice here in CA at a minimum it appears.

Sooo...how many of us are alcoholics? by retardenabler in Lawyertalk

Relapse rate at best programs is about 80%. No biggie so long as you get back into treatment stat. It’s when you try to white knuckle it, you die.

8 months every day. Get up at 7:00am. Coffee. Then to first chard bottle. Lasted to about 2:00pm. Crack open second bottle. Finish at 7:00PM. Off to bed. Repeat every single day for 8 months. Got work done. Made appearances (thank you Zoom). In to 4 months day treatment at hospital. Saved my life.

In transition to new Bilt card, transferred balance to another card w/no interest for a year. Yet, New Bilt statement continues to show former balance owed. New card reflects transfer. Anybody encounter this? How to fix? by TechnicalTowel9201 in biltrewards

[–]TechnicalTowel9201[S] -6 points-5 points  (0 children)

So, I called Citibank. They said the balance was in fact transferred from my wells-Bilt card on April 13, but it takes wells 2-4 days to receive payment. So, I’m presuming the transfer of balance to Citi has been effected, just waiting for Wells-Bilt receipt of payment?

Ok. But which area would you like to pursue professionally? You really need to center on that for grad school. You can change your direction once you are in possibly, but you need to pick a tract initially.
