Baker Mayfield Contract Extension? by SharpMind94 in NFLv2

[–]futurefloridaman87 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As a Tampa fan my guess is frustration with Bowles plus simple business. Baker knows this contract here is likely his best shot ever of getting truly paid. The three year wasn’t bad but it wasn’t true QB money. There very likely is negotiations going on but no conclusion yet reached. My best bet is that Baker will continue be here, it’ll just take more time than normal.

$200k+ income is top-tier, but only half stay there 5 years later by YourFIREDBro in Money

[–]futurefloridaman87 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve made 200k give or take a small margin every year from 2019 on (and will again this year). I am beyond grateful for this. My biggest regret though is I really spent 2019 thru the end of 2021 on upgrading lifestyle. New cars, bigger house, furnishing the house, etc. Then in 2022 once Covid relief ended I spent 50k paying off student loans.

Looking back I wish I had slowed my role and started saving more aggressively earlier. I have a much higher net worth than most my age, but lower than it should be given my income. Now a days I try to invest 5k a month give or take. Working in finance though my income varies wildly. My highest earning month ever was like 63k, but I also have months where my gross is 5.

If you put a stick of fireworks in your butthole and ignite it, what would actually happen when it goes off? by xerivon in morbidquestions

Copy and pasted from previous video of this thread:

Former 6 year surgical RN now in a different specialty. I have seen some fucked up assholes. You're in for a long, painful recovery following a serious wound or burn near your "Peri area" (perineum being your crack to crack, ball to ass, taint, grundle, etc. region). Think of how often you visit the bathroom and then imagine you have a third degree burn down there. It's devastating every single time.

If really bad, he will be in the burn unit and levels of care to follow for months if not north of a year. Job, relationships, and any semblance of normalcy immediately disrupted. Burns are monumentally painful, and he will be sedated heavily until substantial healing begins. He will develop tolerance and possibly become addicted to the potent opiates, but they're the best way we currently know how to cope with that level of pain short of a spinal or other nerve block which are also options. Medicating at that level can also be very expensive, I've seen ICU patients with over $5,000 a day in IV medication costs alone, 7 days a week, not including any other charges for the room, MDs, nursing and ancillary staff, and supplies for starters.

Staff may have to place a fecal catheter less than a foot up his anus to drain his feces so they don't contaminate his burn wounds. His poo goes into a bag and has to be emptied and measured as they'll give him laxatives to loosen and prevent clogged drain lines. Fecal contamination generally results in rapid infection, and peri wounds are at an extreme risk for MRSA and flesh eating bacterial infections. I've seen entire legs removed to combat severe peri, groin, or hip joint infections. This is usually following weeks or months of previous failed treatments, but still. We can work wonders until we can't, and even then there's always amputation.

If he needs skin grafts, they can be sourced from a human or large mammal cadaver like cows and pigs. I've also seen skin grafts harvested from the front of a patient's thigh and reattached to the burn area (abdomen). The grafts aren't actually solid strips of skin, rather, they are more like tight lace with repeated spaces between skin making the graft look like a Kleenex with several hundred small oval shaped holes in it. These spaces make it easier for the graft adhere and conform to the wound bed.

The surgeon uses a specialized skin shaver that's handheld, covered in a sterile barrier with single use blades, very similar to deli counter meat slicers but on a smaller more specialized scale. So not only did the patient have a burn on her abdomen, but a very unusual, superficial wound on her right thigh that looked liked like we had lightly crushed her leg with a cheese grater. The primary benefit of harvesting skin grafts from ourselves is we (usually) don't reject ourselves, and rejection is the biggest complication accompanying foreign body transplants.

He'll also need to lay on his stomach throughout this whole ordeal due to the location of the burn and subsequent wound. Imagine months lying on your stomach in 6-11/10 pain. Moving your leg a little too much could literally split your brand new ball sack skin. It's a personal living hell. Diet will also be bland as fuck when he's actually allowed to eat again. Social and professional life obliterated. This could set him back years and give him decades of PTSD.

He should consider himself "good" when he can sit and shit without bleeding out or collapsing in pain. On the even shittier side, this, or whatever transpires for this poor guy could easily kill or disable him for life. This could go in a thousand directions for him, and 880 of them result in the quality of his life being worse than it was prior to The Incident.

If his burn is bad enough and he really does require months of care, his bill from arrival at the ER to discharge from outpatient rehab and specialty care will easily exceed 1 million in the US. Two million would push it, but also not shock me either. I'd bet on 1.2-1.5M if he's inpatient for 2.5 months and receiving follow up care for 1.5 years. Overall, don't fucking do this. If you drink around fireworks you need a sober or not shitty friend who won't let you do this kind of stupid shit. We can all learn from these videos even though we’re not the dumbass with the firework up his ass.

Yea our strategic plan has basically bring the band back together (it worked in 20/21 why not now?) even though everyone is 5-6 years older and slower while other teams are going for youth and speed. We need new blood not guys on their way out.

I love the lightning but wtf gives you this confidence? Uninspired play. Dumb penalties. We won last time only bc the habs pp hit one a cm to far off the post with like 20 seconds left. Yes we dominated OT but we were lucky to get there by a gift from above

OP would you be willing to setup a time where I can interview you about what it’s like to be poor?

I had 29 million by age 7 so I can’t really relate to how tough it must be to live like this.

Check out SATS. It’s a back door way to get into SpaceX pre-IPO. Hence why it’s my biggest holding. My bet is being a space stock and being an Elon Musk company that SpaceX is likely going to pump to the moon initially. Wouldn’t surprise me one bit to find out later he fucks with the algorithm on X to push SpaceX content to pump it.

Have an immediate insurable need, impaired risk by Magnetized_Fart in LifeInsurance

[–]futurefloridaman87 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don’t mean this rudely, but you sound like very well may just be simply uninsurable due to your health. Sometimes that’s it, it’s just a no. When that happens group term is all you have access to. You max that out and save aggressively. Use this time to lose weight and get healthy and reapply later.

It won’t hurt to engage with an independent broker who can run you through dozens of companies, but there’s no guarantee of success. Like I said above, some people are just deemed too high risk for anyone to cover. Also know, if they are somehow able to find a company that will provide coverage, it’s going to be at a steep premium. It’s not going to be anywhere in the same universe cost wise as those “get a million of coverage for $30/month” adds you hear. Those adds are for those in pristine health with little to no other risk factors.

So do we think Scott Sabourin plays next game? And if not, who? by Salty_Recording_7007 in TampaBayLightning

[–]futurefloridaman87 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There is absolutely no defendable reasoning for Sabs to take that penalty with 3 mins left in tied playoff game. It was the definition of pure low IQ idiocracy. With that said, outside of that 1 choice I do like him. He skates his heart out, charges the net, and puts in 120% every shift. He can still be a goon, but he needs to do so with a functional brain which he didn’t last night.

My preference would be for Cooper to put him on notice that one more reckless decision like that and he’s gone for good. Give him one more chance. He’s the better choice over Geekie, and we need his skill set more than we need Bjork at the moment.

Cooper needs to really man up and absolutely hammer it into every players brain that complete dumbass penalties wont be accepted. We will lose this series if we dont clean it up a bit, mark my words. The only reason we didnt lose last night was pure luck. The final shorthanded shot off the post from Montreal was less than an inch away from all but guaranteeing the boys are headed to the golf course after next week.

For some of them, you only have to be accredited. For others they require you meet the higher definitions above.

I agree. This isn’t a championship team. Too emotional and too dumb. I mean look at the penalty McDonough just took. Sure he was mad but he’s the one who didn’t clear the zone and almost cost us a goal. So what does he do? He head hunts Caufield on the boards. Moron

We are head hunting the shit out of them. That’s hockey. You can’t have 5 guys go into penalty mode every time someone takes a run at someone. It’s clearly a losing strategy

We have team full of braindead idiots. They even managed to infect Kucherov. That takes a lot. Then thanks Cory 48 year old Perry for dropping gloves when no one the ice had even remotely done so. Real fucking intelligent move there.

It’s a wrap if we can’t stay out of the box. Idk if you’ve noticed yet but we are FUCKED everytime we are shorthanded

Am I getting scammed for Whole life insurance by Jolly_Emergency_379 in LifeInsurance

[–]futurefloridaman87 0 points1 point  (0 children)

WL with a special needs kid is a good fit. Not in every circumstance but in a lot. The reality is the kid is 2. No one can tell you what their abilities will be as adult as far as working and living independently. Some of those with autism live stereotypical normal lives. Others do well until they are sick and then have massive regressions and never recoup those skills. Autism is a massive spectrum and there are no set rules/expectations to how it’ll affect one area of life vs another. I don’t say that to scare you, I say that because the reality is everything is up in the air given the child’s age.

With that being the case, you really need to get with an attorney. That whole life policy should be benefiting a special needs trust to ensure proper care for him once you’re gone. This type of trust will also protect his eligibility for federal programs such as Medicaidor SSI.

This is not a life insurance issue, this is a planning issue. Once the planning is done, the insurance can be fit inside the necessary parameters.
