  • It happens all the time. You just have to be willing to put yourself out there a bit. You’re probably not going to have an interaction like you see in the movies where you bump into someone and go all googoo eyes and hear the angels sing, but you can absolutely start a conversation and see where it goes. The key is that you can’t expect anything to happen for you, you have to be willing to initiate interactions too.








  • Not me, but my wife.

    She receives an envelope from her grandmother, oh cool, money!
    She opened it and it was empty. Okay, no fuss she probably forgot to fill one when making all of them for the family. A week later, she told her grandma it was empty. Her grandma replied “No! There’s no way it was empty, your mistaken.” This is par for the course. She ignores my wife all the time and talks down to her.

    So an empty envelope is the worst I’ve seen.


  • How the hell does Sedera (the “health group”) they were using even afford to pay anything out?

    Correct my math if I’m wrong, but using their data, call it 35000 paying members. The family in question paid about 150 a month. Let’s be generous and say 200 per month for each member. That equals 84 million a year of revenue. Taking no other expenses out for running Sedera, that allows each member to only receive 2400 a year in reimbursement. Most of these members are probably families. They also have to pay a deductible, just like regular insurance. So what the hell would Sedera even be able to afford to cover for their “members”?

    Religious organizations really know how to grift, don’t they.
