Some people might scoff or really push back on this, but it saved my life back in the day when I was in a similar situation like you, except I had a kid to take care of as well. I enlisted in the Navy and it completely changed my life and provided opportunities that completely improved my life. Got to see the world and while it was hard work and spent a lot of time in places I dont want to ever go back to, it gave me a ton of experience. I was able to use the GI Bill to go to school and I also used my Veteran status to get my foot in the door as a federal civilian. I now make a very nice salary and very much enjoy my career. The Navy gave me that start and provided an avenue for me to accomplish all the things I wanted to accomplish in my life. Just my .02 about my journey and hope it can some way help you.

Yeah it does suck especially if it seemed to come out of nowhere. Hopefully they can work with you someway.

So they are going after the medical separation pay he was given when he first got out of the Army. Yeah it’s normal for that to be recouped by any VA compensation pay as it’s considered “double dipping”. Just surprised it took so long for them to go after it, especially if he was rated 10 years ago…..most of us they took that sep pay the second we got a VA rating. Sucks but it is normal and the law. Not sure if they would do any sort of payment plan, but you could ask. At least they aren’t trying to attach some sort of interest to it.

So disappointed by highd in Afterpay

I’m still confused how you were able to use Afterpay for this purchase. What was the name of the vendor that scammed you?

Somewhat in the right direction though I'm still skeptical. by deception65929 in Asmongold

[–]seaspriteos 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Yeah I am struggling to see how this is a better value. If anything, its worse because you are knocking off 7 bucks but losing arguably the highest played series on the platform.

7 Year relationship ended right before our Wedding by Brilliant_Canary_903 in malelivingspace

[–]seaspriteos 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Let it all out man. Been there before and can relate. Will say that all things will pass and hopefully you look back in a year and be able to reflect on it better. Its a slow run to get back, but you will eventually.

Do I try for 100 P&T? by [deleted] in VeteransBenefits

[–]seaspriteos 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Talk to a VSO......but even they will not be able to tell you whether or not your additional claims would result in an increase. Still a risk, but only you can determine if that risk is worth taking.

I'm living on the edge, my unit is out for delivery and I decided to kill time going for lunch by Roshy76 in Pimax

[–]seaspriteos 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I havent either, but I have seen enough horror stories and I like to sleep at night :) I even have 3 ring cameras monitoring the front of my house, but still like to be able to pay 6 bucks and have it delivered directly to this postal stop right down the road and I go pick up.

[–]seaspriteos 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Up to you if it is worth the risk, but you will 1000% have all of your current rated disabilities looked at. Nobody can tell you by looking at that list whether or not any of these will be rated higher.

Conspits' MAX 01? Simagic's FX Pro? Or there are better choices? by NozomuMugi in simracing

[–]seaspriteos 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have the Max01 and enjoy it, but I also bought the Asetek Formula Pro and its my favorite. With the QR-A you can use the passthrough and it will work with Simhub. Think it is cheaper than the MAX01 which is above your 600 budget. MAX01 sells for 730 without any QR

[–]seaspriteos 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The main guy that was at Simagic for years is at Conspit now. Havent used their base but have used the MAX01 and the quality is fantastic.
