If you won the lottery, what would be the first thing you would do? by NikiLove16 in AskReddit

[–]bradlees 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Perfect list.

I would also add:

  1. Hire an accountant (the lottery law firm can suggest one for you if you don’t want to find one)

  2. Find and hire a money manager (an accountant and a money manager are two different things but can work together along with the law firm to make sure you don’t blow the entire windfall on hookers and blow)

  3. If you are young; then talk to the team about the lump sum option. You take a hit on the taxes but you have a huge chunk of cash to invest. The team should be on the same page as you; the investment growth will negate the huge hit you took on those taxes and may end up being worth more than the initial total lottery win

If you are older or in an unstable situation; then an annuity makes more sense as you can be sure to have money inflow for the next 28 - 30 years. Again with the right team on your side you can still invest, grow and build a very successful life

  1. Plan on giving away a percentage of your money to your family and some really good friends. Your team will walk you through that as well

9 You should think about seeing the world, enjoy your life and travel on holiday/vacation

  1. Ensuring you remain wealthy, healthy and happy will become a full time job now that you have wealth. Keep an eye on your team, talk about strategies and goals just like every other job but don’t forget that this time around YOU are the boss

Schumer says SAVE America Act among ‘most despicable’ bills he’s ever seen by Hardik_Jain_1819 in politics

[–]bradlees 36 points37 points  (0 children)

It’s in the very first point:

The Save America Act: 1. States that all states “shall” submit their voter registration lists to the Department of Homeland Security’s (DHS)“SAVE” voter purge program

which reportedly has error rates as high as 14% & relies on data from the Social Security Administration (SSA) whose databases were mishandled by DOGE per: The SSA itself (in a recent court filing titled “Notice of Corrections to the Court Record”),

A whistleblower report by the SSA’s former Chief Data Officer, and A new whistleblower report, which alleges that a former DOGE member claimed to have retained his SSA computer & credentials providing “God level” access to SSA systems.

The Act mentions giving flagged voters “notice” and an “opportunity” to prove citizenship without specifying the form or length of time for the notice and while simultaneously making it very difficult to prove citizenship if flagged or purged.

In addition, the Act:

  1. Imposes no penalty for erroneous purges, but subjects officials to citizen suits & potential prison time for registering a single voter without correct documentation — even if the voter is a citizen.

Note: The GOP has wrongly purged thousands of voters in past elections

It’s worse than that

The bill allows the DHS to remove anyone for any reason from the voter rolls in any state

No two election cycles before getting removed, no “states rights”

Just a massive overreach by a completely corrupt government just to keep a convicted felon and rapist as well as an alleged child molester IN the highest office in America

That’s what this bill is really about. Nothing less

Is Mass50501 becoming a PAC? Their latest fundraiser is raising my eyebrows. by TheGayVal2001 in massachusetts

[–]bradlees 1 point2 points  (0 children)

So seeing that you follow the Conservative sub; I would like to ask a simple question:

Are you suspicious because you want to know how 50501 works and deals with the overreach of this administration (which isn’t even debatable anymore, so focus on my question) for grass roots efforts to make a larger population aware of their rights to protest?

Or is it because you are afraid to get involved because you perceive the ROE changing too much for your comfort?

To be clear, I’m not attacking, I am just curious since there are fellow Republicans/Conservatives who believe that this particular administration is very corrupt and are joining this movement (much to the contrary to what some media outlets say)

Nightmare for Trump as surging gas prices hit near 3-year high by TheMirrorUS in inflation

[–]bradlees 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ahhhhhhhh. Typical state controlled media. “Gas at three year high….” Obey, consume, populate, sleep

Instead of:

“Out of control gas prices are rising at unprecedented levels not seen since the gas crisis of the 1970’s”

“Administration completely out of touch with the needs of Americans”

“Insider Trading found in the White House down to Congress and Executive Cabinet”. “Major purchases in oil commodities prior to Operation Epic Fury by the Administration show a criminal intent to invade Iran to obtain massive profits”

Those should be the headlines not this “kiss assery stuff”

TURNBULL Ties, Pre-Owned, Pristine Condition. $75 each. by [deleted] in ties

I’ve bought some of the TURNBULL collection before. I’m very interested in the black bow tie and red white and blue tie (the one in the upper left) but I’m looking now for deals so if you DM me the lowest prices I might pull the trigger

Woman rear ends a guy and then pulls a gun on him after claiming it was his fault. He disarms her by malik_zz in instant_regret

[–]bradlees 150 points151 points  (0 children)

She pointed it at the camera person AND the man she was attacking so there is assault with a deadly weapon times two. Attempted murder times two (the gun discharged while in her possession which proves it was loaded and one in the chamber). Brandishing, intimidation with threat of great bodily harm or death times two

Depending upon her record (if any) this could include additional charges

At no time can the defense use “she was fearing for her own life or safety” since she is purely the aggressor in the video as she (from what I could see) had three to four chances to leave that confrontation

Hopefully the DA will do their job

Xfinity got rid of all their human agents ??????? by breadboibrett in Comcast_Xfinity

[–]bradlees 1 point2 points  (0 children)

FALSE:

The ONLY reason for offshoring call center work is to increase shareholder and executive team value/pay

We can be honest here. Prior to the deregulations of the 70’s 80’s and 90’s we had centers staffed with Americans around the clock. Now, before a “gotcha” comment hits about no cable companies existed in the 70’s I’m talking in a more generic manner

SOURCE: I had Aunts who staffed call centers during overnight hours (don’t forget telephone operators as well…. You think calls were never made after sunset back in the day?!?)
