What is the hold up on the new tank? Need some help with something? We can help push you over the edge in many ways you know!

Honestly money. Embarrassing, but true. Andrew comes first and medical bills.

I know we all deal with budget constraints. I make minimum wage. Not easy an easy hobby to do when weekly groceries alone take 3/4 of your check. Hopefully I will be able to find a better job that accommodates Middle School hours.

Agreed. All the stuff I have hemorrhaged money on this last two years, including medical expenses have taken their toll.

 

[sfin52]

medical expenses shouldn't make us go broke. It does even with good insurance.

 

[Katrina71]

My last blood test was 1600.00 after insurance. Not even gonna talk about my husband's.

It's hilarious that before they made health care "affordable" it was much more affordable. :)

Yes. Middle of the Rd Blue Cross coverage for us is 985.00 per month. 80/20 policy. 1,500 deductable each. 5,000 max out of pocket each. (Loophole...for allowed charges) Dental and Vision completely separate.

Before affordable health care we had a copay of 25 for a doc visit.

Every other developed country in the world has socialized medicine but ours. Think about that. Nothing affects the consumer more, but some people still believe we must be Communists if we try to change it.

 

[NY_Caveman]

BTW, why are police and fire workers not fully covered by the city/state. That is absurd for the job they do and the risks they take for us all.

[dantimdad]

Nope. I will share in private if you wish but we are all friends here and I would like it to stay that way.

I get my medicine from one of those countries illegally but I want to survive. Big pharma and others like them want people like me dead.

Did you guys notice the page number button doesn't fit the number 1000. I guess they never thought a thread would grow this large!

LOL!

Lol

Sigh, remember when the gas station pumps needed to be replaced because noone ever thought gas would go over $1.×× ?

Don't laugh kids! True story!


They were all mechanical and that was part of what introduced the digital readout pumps.

Now gas can safely reach $9.99.
:-/
