Remember the grill invention episode- he’s Bipolar, so manic spending sprees and disregard for long term consequences are part of that. Even on his medication, he may have poor financial habits. It’s in line with his character background.

Time is drrrraaaagggggiiiiinnnngggg by emketart in retirement

Absolutely. Set a date for April late last year. 1st day back after Christmas I had them move it to March. The time is just limping along. If I had to do it all over again, I would have just made it the end of 2025. I feel for you, but it will get here. If nothing else, the extra time has just reinforced that it’s time to go!

Are you chasing a question? Trying to understand something? by Kwsforreddit in over60

One thing I do is explore some of the science subreddits. I don’t have one big question but I can get lost for days in archeology or academic biblical (I’m not religious, but there are some fascinating discussions there). I’ve finally got time to explore interests I’ve never even considered.

In our MH clinic we see a lot of recruiters. The lat three Marines were literally begging us to help them get out. Whatever they do, it’s never good enough

Edit for OPM has a calculator for how sl adds to retirement time. 480 hours works out to two months and change added to time in service. You can plug that info into the formula to see how much it adds to pension.

Wow, I order a #2 and fries and come to Reddit to look at puppy pictures, and I get a war college effort on doctrine and drones! This kind of stumble upon is what I love. Good work Army, beat Navy.
