I've never bought a battle pass. Did buy the DLC expansions for a Lego game and Forza Horizon 5 though.

Who the fuck cares about cosmetics though? Just kids nowadays.

"Gatekeeping" "Dude". LOL Fucking trolls.

Choose one.

Also, there are hundreds if not thousands of games released every year that don't have micro transactions. Vote with your wallet instead of yelling into the sky.

Once I have a purchase order, I go get an insurance binder from my insurance agent and then to my credit union who cuts me a cashier's check made out to the dealership in about 20 minutes which I take back to the dealer and hand to them.

Since yours doesn't have any locations, you have to talk to them and to the dealer. Maybe they can wire the funds, etc. But different places have different policies.

And if you owe them money, they will get your SSN anyhow. Even back in 2003 when I was the office manager of a collections agency it was easy to get SSNs when doing skip tracing. Cost a dollar a piece when running 25 at a time. Even cheaper now.

I've gotten a textbook or two through them.

Use the isbn number of the book you want at bookfinder.com will show other sites as well (make sure to set Canada as your destination). You can also use it to find the best price on textbook buyback, but that may not work as well for outside the US.

One tip when doing textbooks is definitely go by the ISBN if you want to make sure you get the correct one. Sometimes it is fine getting a different version number or an international edition, but not always. Also, when going used you aren't going to have codes for online homework access which depending on the course you may need. Often, I found it was cheaper to buy the course access + digital edition or loose-leaf binder edition of the text direct from the publisher than buying the book used+access or going through the schools bookstore.

That's it? I'm only 41 but since childhood have personally known well over a dozen people to commit suicide, but only one person dead from using drugs and so far none from natural causes. I really would have thought that experiencing suicidality would be over 10% when you factor in those who don't go through with it successfully.

Edit: Nevermind, I missed at the beginning of the article that it is feeling BOTH pain and suicidality. Not one or the other.

Most likely, those coverages are after your deductibles. And the out of pocket maximum is your deductible + copays after deductible. And then at that point they cover 100%.

So you would pay $400 of charges until you hit your deductible, then your 20% (or $40 specialist) copays until you've paid another $1600. So the most you'd pay per year out of pocket is $2000 (Not counting your biweekly premiums).

If that is how your plan is written, that's not bad for your biweekly premium rate. So even if you got really sick or injured and needed care tomorrow, worst case you're looking at getting $2000 in bills even if you had a $100k surgery + ICU stay. Still better to live healthy and not take unnecessary risks.

Does your employer offer additional short-term or long-term disability coverage? Some employers pay 100% for their employees or offer it for a very cheap subsidized deductible. I've had it fully covered where I'd get 80% of my current pay for both short and long term, or wound up being like just $4 or $5 a pay period. That adds up if you're next to broke, but as you get more established in life it seems relatively cheap for the peace of mind. Similar to how renters insurance is like $8-$10/month and if something happens you will be thankful you had it.

There is usually a greater difference in the employee premium between the two plans.

There could still be potential long term gains/savings by being able to max out the HSA yearly, but unless you're doing that and don't have anything outside of your yearly covered physical and one visit to your eye specialist it could quickly cost you more out of pocket.

Thank you. If I don't find it, I will just have to look in the mirror.

Ooohhhh, self burn.

:(

We have one here where I live, so I will have to stop tomorrow and maybe will get lucky. I like weird looking shit like this.

I would buy it. I don't recognize the store unfortunately.

Yes. And if it is an external one then likely technically slower than the internal.

Almost didn't see the 2nd one.

What a dapper gentleman!
