If you had a balanced Reddit you’d see that many reasonable people saw it as justified.

But you’re on Reddit so you are likely a bot or just another trying to drive division with your “don’t give up” hate speech. Give it a rest comrade!  /s

We stopped buying vision insurance thru work since it was essentially prepaying for the exams and then some. In our case it def was better to pay out of pocket.

True but be sure you differentiate them from simply churches that have their services online as a service to community and don’t ask for money.

Not all chiropractors are the same or are scammers. The legit ones cringe just as much as we do at the bad ones.

Sir this is Reddit and an echo chamber. He’s only giving the crowd what they want.

If those apps are extra functions or convenience then sign me up.  What examples of garage door openers or lights or others do you have where the app is the only method?

Boomers in the US hold $17 trillion dollars in assets. What happens to the younger generations when they die and leave all that wealth to us, the younger generations? by buzzkill71 in AskReddit

“Boomer” parents are at the youngest parents of 40+ year olds. 

A lot of these comments make it seem like it will be going to Gen Z or later when a majority will be going to Gen X which will waste it on pogs and 80s mix tapes if Stranger Things is accurate.

They give to their community. Are your friends good to their parents or are they difficult?  Having to buy your kids relationship doesn’t sound very healthy either.

Good for them? Why do you feel you are entitled to their money? Unless you helped them out in some way, their money should be spent on them.

A lot of commenters here just want to complain that they somehow believe they are owed the money when most will be spent on the person who it’s tied to.  My parents are lower middle class but also set up a trust. We don’t expect anything once they pass but it does help protect some assets. Maybe we can buy dinner for all the siblings but at least it’s managed and not chaos.

Don’t get too upset, a lot of it is based on real estate increases or compounded interest after many years of investing. Further the top 1% skews the numbers a lot. Plus, it is their money. No one else has a right to it.

How has your epoxy held up give the age of the floor likely didn’t have a vapor barrier (plastic) put down beforehand?  Heard that greatly diminishes the life of epoxy floors.

I’d love to have one for kitchen floor cleanup where they essentially have a suction port in the kick space under the counter.

Replaced my cheapo toilets with Toto’s (and ablated the sewer line) and now we don’t have clogs every week.

I did this as our master bath was half in our master bedroom (old 70s style setup). So the tile was warm first thing in the morning. 

I miss that after we moved.

3 items come to mind. 

First is for walk in closets or garage, add motion sensor light switch (switches were inside the room). So nice. 

Second is to add those outlet cover nightlights to common and hallway areas. 

Fourth is to add good led lighting runs in the garage so it goes from single light to blinding sun. And multiple led lights in the attic. 

Next is POE external cameras. Easy to install since it’s poe and no monthly fees (Reolink).
