mikeman Posted September 21, 2018 Report Share Posted September 21, 2018 Yup JBD is right about youSo males never get sexually assaulted?No soup kitchens, what kinda of world do you even live inAll those tent cities keep growingSome people just don’t have the support system like usBad luck and poor health are a contributing factor as wellYou're right, bad luck does play a part, that's why short term help is always available, either from the govt or other charitable/religious organizations. Throwing in sexual assault as a possible reason for homelessness(giant tent cities full of them) is rather amusing, iI's not going to sway a discussion on the topic however.

mikeman Posted September 21, 2018 Report Share Posted September 21, 2018 How old is he?Joey lives under the delusion that insulting me regularly will somehow get under my skin, Obviously such silliness is evidence that the opposite is true. I've mentioned my age before, I'm youthful, and although I am very modest, am considered to be extremely handsome. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IAG Posted September 21, 2018 Report Share Posted September 21, 2018 People make choices and end up living with the consequences, lots of lazy, drug addicted, mentally ill, and just ignorant people out there. Your good is bad/bad is good viewpoint is fairly common among people that would rather not face reality. That reality is going to be a cold slap in the face when blacks and others who have seen their lives improve, vote to re-elect trump in unprecedented numbers.You are lumping mentally ill in with the lazy, drug addicted and “just ignorant?” I doubt too many are homeless because they are “lazy.” It would seem like it would take a whole lot more effort to be homeless than to have a job.

Works really well until they decide to take yours.He said he had a 401k, but only had 330k in it, so if he’s only 57 or whatever, certainly has something else? Yeah. I had a defined benefit plan that would’ve paid me $5000 per month on an early retirement assuming I worked another X number of years at the company ...which I would have. However it went away like so many of those plans. think they gave me 30k or something payout. Sounds good when you are young and sounds like a lot of money, until you focus on what they took from you over a 30 year retirement period.

Anybody that is as right wing as he is you can always be sure either has a union job or works for the government. So he pretty much probably has it all since he basically covered them all.

I didn’t think most companies would offer both a pension and a 401(k). Who knows. In any case, if he’s eating expired mean he’s probably not living too high on the hog. I just think it’s ironic when people who condemn and patronize anyone on the system....and I have never been btw... but to act all high and mighty when in reality, most could be done in with one health issue that sends you to an early nursing home, which can wipe out your savings quickly, and then you’re living on Medicaid on the people’s dime. Unless he’s got over 2 million in the bank, he shouldn’t get too cocky....possible he still ends up living on welfare in form of Medicaid..There but by the grace of God go we all.

Most companies have gotten rid of pensions but the companies that just roll in money like the drug companies and defense industry still have them because they have to answer to the govt and they can't just tell their employees to go to hell. He is an early retiree so he has some of this taken care of. Pretty much impossible that you wouldn't have if you retire from a drug company. Those are premium benefits.

Sounds good when you are young and sounds like a lot of money, until you focus on what they took from you over a 30 year retirement period.No pension, no benefits after i retired, wouldn't expect any, My roth IRA has a bit more than my 401K(both have made nice gains in the last year), and then I've got all my non- retirement money I've saved over the years(eating spoiled meat and using coupons adds up over the years), I'm on easy street. In 4 years I start SS, dont have the faintest clue what I'll do with all the money, i make far more than I spend now. One of the benefits of being retired is I can spend all day here, sharing my wisdom with all of my friends. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Let me ask you since you hang out with bums all the time, dont you ever want to just slap them in the face and say "go out and get a fucking job, everyplace in town has a sign out"?

WVU Posted September 21, 2018 Author Report Share Posted September 21, 2018 I didn’t think most companies would offer both a pension and a 401(k). University of Miami does but it is a 403b. They don't add shit to the 403b but they add money to a pension plan based on salary and years of service. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Your income is low so ObamaCare is basically free and you will always get medical care, But if you can't pay for it, you can just declare bankruptcy because they can't get your retirement accounts. So you are pretty well set. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
