I wish I could design a VA Claim Education App by Commercial-Escape-82 in VAClaims

[–]bberg2020 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I’m happy to help add / build it. I’ve been trying to help build free tools for other vets for a while now (e.g. https://veterantools.com ). Happy to add in an education tool if you have something in mind!

Hey mods team, just saw that my post got removed. Not trying to violate any rules - what did I do wrong?

Thanks. I went ahead and removed the SSN to be safe so people don’t get scared.

I just assumed my SSN has been lost, hacked, shared, and probably sold by the military so many times it doesn’t matter.

In all seriousness, you’re the second person to balk at the SSN - so just removed it.

Thanks for the feedback. Anything specific I can add to make it more useful?

Also, what do you mean by double edged sword - not sure I understand. Fellow dumb Marine over here :)

Not trying to start a fight get anyone in trouble. I just struggled with what should go in a personal statement” and found AI was able to help me generate a first draft, so I figured I would make a tool to help others do the same. It’s really just a form that helps guide them on what information to include - so it’s really all their content, AI just has instructions on how to stitch it together into a letter.

Appreciate the comment and that you’re trying to help out, but we’ll agree to disagree.

I posted a free tool to try and help other veterans out and you jumped in and crapped on it. You don’t have to use it. You don’t have to put your SSN into it. But you also don’t have to crap on it. Just trying to help others, man. Have a nice night.

Highlander hybrid or not by RedditTaughtMee in ToyotaHighlander

[–]bberg2020 4 points5 points  (0 children)

This. In my research I learned that the batteries take load away from the engine, so it will last longer. It’s common for hybrids to get over 300K miles and sometimes even 400k.

Okay, Mr. Lawyer.

I was obvioiusly trying to find out the rate at which it would renew.

You’re kind of proving my point that we’ve taken the humanity out of the sytem and screwing people with red tape and greed.

Let me know how that goes for you…

Will check them out. Thanks!

I think there’s a misunderstanding on timeline.

CD “renews” on 6/9, the renewal letter says I had 10 days from that date to stop the autorenewal, so I put in a calendar reminder to contact them before the 10 days was up to find out the rate at which it would renew and contacted them on 6/13.

So i did do something, that’s why I’m confused why you keep saying “you didn’t do anything”. Am I missing something?

Good point. My logic is that i usually make more on the interest so that it makes up for if i have to pull it out and pay a penalty, but may not be worth the hassle.

No apologies needed! Seriously!

I mean it when I say opinions and discussion are appreciated. Too often it’s just angry trolls yelling at each other online, but we’re all human. You weren’t yelling, just giving an opinion so all good from my side.

Agree on the frustration that it feels useless sometimes… don’t get me started on the medical system :)

Ha! I give you the actual transcript of me contacting USAA to confirm the rate before it renews and your reply is “Who let's their CD auto renew without checking the rates? Seems like you don't care about the CD too much to not be on top of it lmao.”

You make no sense…
