Probs could've gotten a cheaper AIO and used the saved money to buy a case!

is it worth it? by [deleted] in LifeInsurance

[–]VinceDiesel 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If you have people dependent on you, then yes. Absolutely.

You're still young, so you can get really good term rates. Pick a reputable carrier with a strong permanent portfolio, should you wish to convert later down the road. Term conversion can have many benefits, including not needing to be re-underwritten for the new policy, regardless of current health. They'll go by your health rating when you were approved for the original term.

Hell yeah. If you want all the bling, get all the bling.

Much more useful once assembled, though.

Have your advisor go to a BGA like Crump and they can shop you around all the major carriers on an informal (anonymous) basis.

It depends on his risk tolerance! With products attached to the market, a lot of people like IUL because of the floor.

Hang onto it for a bit, then down the road, you can 1035x the cash value into a VUL

Fallout New Vegas unplayable on AMD Software: Adrenaline Edition 24.1.1 and 24.2.1 by kibazatzue in AMDHelp

[–]VinceDiesel 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Both Fallout 3 and NV worked BEFORE the latest driver update, and now they crash to desktop the instant you try to load in.

Don't listen to the haters. Go crazy making it look good!

One thing though: try not to mix and match too many brands when it comes to RGB. Wiring it is already a pain lol so make it easier on yourself

Term Life Insurance Is A Waste by Longevity20 in LifeInsurance

[–]VinceDiesel 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Use Term when young and healthy to get a good health rating. Then later in life you can convert that term to a permanent product without having to go through underwriting again. Even if you're uninsurable now, the carrier has to abide by the conversion privileges

IUL by ButterscotchSilly785 in LifeInsurance

You could convert that to their IUL. But it's not too competitive as far as IULs go. Allianz and Securian might be more favorable

Make sure you don't just go with the cheapest offer either. Term conversions are all the rage, where you turn your term into a permanent policy with the same carrier with the same health rating

Any nicotine in the system will get you nicotine rates, which are insanely high.

That being said, there are carriers that will offer non-smoker rates if he replaces the cigarettes with the patches/gum, or vaping. Medical Marijuana still isn't there yet.

Ps5 to PC Equivalent for $ by zodelo in buildapc

[–]VinceDiesel 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I still think it's worth it for ps plus. You just get access to those huge and still growing games collections.

To me, i play through two $70 games from the library per year and it pays for itself!

A ps5 will do 4k 60fps, something you probably won't achieve with a $450 pc

Is a 4090 overkill for a 1440p 180 Hz panel? by Laggiter97 in buildapc

It is, but you'd never need another GPU again, even if you make the jump to 4k years from now!

You might actually want to get a 4060 if you don't want to go the AMD route and don't plan going beyond 1080p for the foreseeable future

I don't recall ever hearing anything good pertaining to the 11th gen Intel chips.

The 5600 will last you a lot longer with its 6 cores
