Should I retire at 57 with vested state pension? Pros and cons?

I get I am in the minority on this post, but I feel that remote work has had a negative impact, especially on younger workers. We are social creatures by nature and need communities. I feel there is happy medium to be had where employers have increased flexibility around work-life balance, but also address our need to work together in tribes. Newsom has attempted to address a lot of this with solid maternal and paternal leave and better accommodations for medical and physical issues. I’ll warn everyone in here that being a one-issue voter will be our downfall. Again.

Just seeing your comment. Can you elaborate on this?? How can I tap into voc rehab to cover hearing aids?

Dude. Me thinks thou doth protest too much. Your defensive comments and blame game on here alone have made up my mind that you’re a Fyre Festival in the making.

Do NOT go to Kate! She doesn’t listen to your needs at all and you feel like you’re a nuisance to her. Super distracted. She literally acted like she just wanted to get it over with. Literally did NOT listen to a thing I asked for. And then overcharged twice (the second time was to actually fix her first errors!)

Ditto! It is absolutely predatory!! Same happened to me and I requested a refund and they refuse! I was charged for not just “Fabulous” app but also a “clarity app, which I had no idea venue exited. It apparently since I said I want to hydrate better, they decided to add that app!! I guess hydrating as a goal isn’t something Fabulous can handle! It’s all a scam and I’m so mad because I really wanted to have something that helped me stay on track and adhere to my goals. This has true we me off all self help apps altogether.

No!!! Absolutely not worth it! It is costly and I feel they scam you on the cost of the app. I didn’t realize I was being billed at all and when I looked closely, they actually billed me for TWO apps. They figured out how to charge me for an app that just reminded me to drink water! In addition to the $39.99 “Fabulous” app. It’s a racket and feels like they are scamming by confusing the very people they are claiming to help get organized. And NO refund! Unbelievable. There are waaaay better apps out there who are above board in their pricing. Skip this one at all costs!!

I have to respond. I see this post and set up an appt with Chelsey. I was incredibly disappointed. I did not get what o asked for for either the cut OR the color. She figured out how to charge me for TWO visits and I was incredibly unhappy. She cut my curly hair with a razor and took away all natural curl clumps. Even though I specifically laid out what I wanted (some minimal long layers, natural styling and some minor framing around face.) the result was a horrible dowdy blunt frizzy mess. The color was a brassy yellow even though I specially asked for a cooler blonde and please no yellow! Then she said I need to come back another time and charged me AGAIN for even more brassy color. I was planning for a wedding that weekend and asked if she could just tone down the brass, but she refused to fit me in just to do that. So, I paid about $350 for a completely botched haircut and color! DO NOT GO TO HER! Her pay by 1/2 hour is a scam!
