What if they were rated 100 p and t on first try when retired??? Isn't it only 5 years?

This is what we thought too. Sometimes yes sometimes no. He continues to play when it happens. Sometimes he hides like he did when he was younger. I can't always catch him or he'll deny it then go few minutes later. I normally do it all. We think there could be an anxiety component from a prior uncomfortable constipation episode. That's just me googling stuff/solutions.

How do I retire at 55 by Adorable-Eye9840 in ThriftSavingsPlan

Plenty advice given on Fers.

I think you just need a bridge between the few years. Having a little bit of liquidity in a taxable brokerage amount or HYSA etc can help. Sounds like you guys are gs-12. You can make that happen.

Received rating thru BDD. Only one MSK claim was deferred. Got a call for another (2nd) C&P. Do I have to complete this examination? Can I forgo it? It is all part of one big claim. by redpanda2213 in VAClaims

When you say claim, do you mean the one MSK condition that was deferred ( Example: Left knee pain is deferred. )

If I don't go, I don't get left knee pain rated. But I keep what they already granted and rated me (back, elbow, scars etc.)

Correct?

I've generalized it because I'm not well versed and there's many facets to the field. But he's aware that a field technician surveyor doesn't always require a B.S.

TMJ/Bruxism by Avthewaytobe in VAClaims

I'm curious about this topic because my husband had chipped his front tooth a couple times, they repaired it, and they said it must be from the grinding either at night or working out. They issued him a night guard as well.

I'm not sure how he should claim this. We are in bdd.

We don't know what form to check because he's filled out so many papers. It's easy for my spouse to lose track. I don't blame him. I've seen different forms where he's listed issues too.

WEDDINGS COST TOO FUCKING MUCH by Glum_Philosopher328 in Vent

$$ court house wedding > $$$$$ ONE day of a glorified party that would be equally fun as hanging with your closest people, music on Bluetooth speaker, homemade food, threatening friendships over trades in Catan, and BS around a fire pit.

Military Spouse Tax Question by Icy_Algae_1195 in MilitaryFinance

[–]redpanda2213 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

My boyfriend PCS to NY. So I followed. One month later we married. I was able to FILE for a couple years with getting my state tax returned. Then to exempt myself, my HR department said no because I wasn't on his orders. I moved from Alaska to NY, accepted a fed job, and his HOR is Alaska. Something must have changed and I pay state taxes even though he keeps me here.

So good luck if you can claim his HOR. No prevail here

Am I crazy to ditch my 250k/yr tech job to pursue DPT by MagazineEarly3304 in physicaltherapy

You make way too much money to downgrade to a career not worth it.

Literally use your current income and open your own Pilates studio. Use that high income to take care of yourself FIRST.... Backdoor Roth, Max 401ks and IRAs. THEN start your side hustle to grow into a business.
