And I'm gonna do so every day as tolerated until I get another nursing job! Part time if possible, I really don't want to work full time. Just for 6 more years, then retirement!

That's what pisses folks here off! I do not have to work full time, in fact I have not earned any $$ since Nov. 2017 and because my house earns me money, I'm still doing OK! Running up my Discover card a bit, but that's why I want to work part time as an RN, to not do as much or at all!

Retirement from being unemployed/unemployable?

Please remind us how much you paid for that house that now needs a $113K
roof to earn you that fat cat $500 per month $6000 income. You would
need about three times as many tenants to reach the poverty line.

65 is retirement age, I'm 60. Do the math.

$130,000 and it needed a LOT more work than just the roof. But I got all or most of the work done in 2017 and 2018. Plus I got myself one of the best sound systems ever! :-)

And quit trying to fit me into YOUR FINANCIAL MODEL of ideal retirement! I just want to be comfortable.

No math required. In order to retire you have to have a job from which
you are retiring.

So happy to hear about the wonderful sound system. $130K for the house,
$113k for the roof, that's $243K (not to mention other repairs.) It will
take you 40 years to break even on the money invested. Then there are
utilities, property tax and other expenses. That is a hell of an
investment for a non income.

Dave, I'm sure he's thinking "retirement" at 65 in terms of Social
Security. I guess he doesn't know he can apply for Social Security
benefits when he's two months shy of his 62nd birthday. Of course he'd
receive a reduced amount because the government expects to have to pay
out longer.

The dollar amount of Social Security anyone receives is based on the
number of *work credits* they've accrued during their lifetime. Oh, and
the US government changed the "official" retirement age from 65 to 67
back in 1983. What he doesn't know about this would appear to fit in a
thimble.

How about, you, Kuthe, quit trying to talk us into renting rooms so we
can fit into your "financial model"? I, for one, I don't want a bunch
of strangers moving in and out of my house. What happened with the much
touted job phone interview yesterday? Haven't heard a word about that.

What so many retirees fail to take into consideration is the rising cost
of living. Plus the fact there are always going to be ongoing repairs
and appliances that break down and need repair or replacement. Let's not

Why do you insist on putting everything in dollars value? I know the true value of my house: Location Location and Location. 5min walk to UMSL one way, 5min walk to the South UMSL Metrolink station the other, and a 5min drive back and forth to/from STL International Airport! The perfect Shared International Student Living house! And that is my normal after my Ex bailed on me in 1989! I was starting WashU at the time so I had to find a cheap place to live near school, and I did! So now I own my OWN Shared International Student Living house, outright (no loans, I bought it cash) and have an almost guaranteed set of rotating renters for the rest of my life! And then I will die, on MY TERMS.

You live your life the way you want to and let others live theirs the way THEY WANT TO, please!

For you, full retirement age is 67. If you take Social Security before
then, you will get less. If you don't care about that, you could start
at age 62 and get the same amount of money per month as at 65. You could
wait until 70 and get even more.

Do this math, John. Your age for full retirement is
at age 66 and 10 months, not 65.

I have one credit card. Got rid of the others long ago.
I only use it for one store and occasional auto repair,
and an automatic pay for internet access each month.

I pay it off completely each month, so it costs me nothing.
Never an interest charge.

Odd to me, my car insurance has a "debt free discount"
applied.

I'm not sure why would be a consideration with them.

I suspect he is confusing retirement with qualifying for old age
pensions. I did not qualify for CPP until age 60 and old age pension
at 65, but I was retired and collecting a full pension at 53. I had a
job from which I retired. John has not worked in years and does not have
a job from which he can retire. I suppose there is that expectation that
someone his age should still be working and there may be some point at
which he can satisfy himself that he is old enough that he does not need
to look for work anymore.

Koochie is extremely dumb and extremely lazy, he refuses to work, plus

For people my age and younger, unless they work in the public sector,
pensions are like unicorns: everybody has heard of them but nobody
has seen one. My husband and I loaded up our 401-Ks. I probably
should look at what the market did this year, but since I'm not
going to retire for almost 5 more years, I probably shouldn't worry
about it.

He won't acknowledge what will happen when he runs out of money to
spend on the flop house. His tenants don't pay enough to keep it
running.

He really is one serious illness away from disaster.

I was fortunate the company I worked for had a pension plan they contributed
to plus a 401k that both of us (the company and me) contributed to. But
about 2 or 3 years before I took a severance package they announced they
would no longer be putting money into the pension plan. It would
just accumulate interest. :o(

Within a few months of leaving I rolled my 401k over into an investment
account but I had to wait a full year to request my pension. They considered
me still employed since I was getting a paycheck every two weeks plus all the
benefits of health insurance. I had to wait 30 days after my last
paycheck to request a lump sum which also was rolled over into an
investment account.

I worked for bnl.gov for more than 30 years and accrued a pension of
my choice... whereas I could contribute up to 6% of my pay and the
company matched it... I contributed the full 6%... it grew rapidly.

He likely has no medical insurance. My medical insurance was paid by
bnl and they still pay the premium for both me and my wife, even if I
die they will still pay hers.
Kootchie is an ignoranus not to be gainfully employed, he has no
safety net. The entire time I was gainfully employed by bnl I was
slowly buying houses for their rental income and then selling them at
a handsome profit. Flipping houses was very popular back then. I
sold a few to my tenants.
Kootchie was very stupid paying all cash, he left himself no cushion
and had forgone the deduction on mortgage interest. Kootchie's main
dilemma is that he's very lazy and extremely unreliable, not to
mention that he's a nutjob.
During the '60s I was enrolled in UCLA's x-ray tech program. Lots of
RNs were also enrolled, not a one I know of was ever unemployed, in
fact they were all in high demand due to their x-ray tech degree. In
those days x-rays were done by exposing photo film and developing it.
now it's much simpler as the images are done digitally. In the end I
was employed by Phillips installing x-ray machines but I hated it as I
was constantly exposed to very ill people, especially very young
children, babys with spina bifida are very difficult to stomach.

I don't believe that Kootchie is much of an RN, if he really is one.
RNs don't typically get hired as baby sitters in peoples homes. Kids
that are so critically ill that they need special medical care go to
special medical centers... I wouldn't trust Kootchie to care for a
sick goldfish... in fact I wouldn't trust Kootchie to butter toast for
granny.

And I don't believe his story one bit, the skanky little douchebag was
fired for being tested positive for drugs.

Well, Sheldon, you are correct in "all departments", lookie at the rfc thread from five years ago that I just found and "resurrected" where Kootie is begging usenet strangers for $250K to buy a house: "OT: Anyone have about $250,00 I can use?"

What he is refering to is the US Social Security retirement.
Full retirement was age 65 for years but they keep raising
that for newer generations.

My full retirement age was 66. And with John's generation,
it was moved to age 66 and 10 months.

Hah! That applies to all of us. And I'm not talking about the serious
illness that gets tribute daily by mass-media gloomsters.

Yesterday, I thought I was doing *okay* with the indefinite house arrest,
sitting in my back yard with my dog listening to the radio. I also took
the opportunity to make some room in my liquor cabinet by emptying a few
almost-finished bottles.

This AM, I peeled a blood-engorged tick from a little itch on my back.

After a shower, I called 811 (Non-Emergency Medical Assistance) and the
Nurse said not to worry, because thus far there have been no confirmed
cases of Lyme disease in my area. Despite that, she asked that I put the
tick in my fridge and keep an eye out for any rash that develops during
the next few weeks. If I get one (or fever / headache / fatigue /
vomiting / muscle pain), I'm to visit my doctor and bring the tick.


So, I decided to read:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tick-borne_disease

You can see they are trying to hide it, way down at the end after
'Protozoan' and 'Toxin', under innocuous-sounding 'Allergies':

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alpha-gal_allergy

The most insidious of all possible diseases, a threat to the core values
us 'normal' men & women hold dear. It makes one allergic to red meat.

It's a cover-up for sure. How else to explain Para 3 Sentence 4?

"However, as doctors are not required to report the number of patients
with alpha-gal allergy, the true number of affected individuals is
unknown".

NOT REQUIRED TO REPORT !!!!! What are they thinking?

Well, I'm just not going to sit around waiting to become a carnivore
trapped in a lacto-pesco-pollo-vegetarian body! In fact, I am now
planning to bring my dog outside and fire up the BBQ while I still feel
to do so.

I live extremely cheaply. I have no house or car payments and I rarely buy any expensive gasoline. And as an RN I refuse to buy stupidly expensive FOR PROFIT health insurance, I AM health insurance. And now that I'm a vegetarian I do not buy expensive meat either.

I suspect and have suspected all along that you've suddenly adopted the
vegetarian diet is you cannot afford meat since your income is so meager.

But feel free to deny it and throw in a few cuss words and a rant or two.

None of the packages of meat I buy declare if the animals were tortured

If it doesn't say anything, they've been tortured.

But anyway, how much is a kilo of average priced beef compared to a

I don't know the answer to either one as I don't buy anything by the kilo.
Plus I haven't bought cashews in at least a year and it was a very small

He can file for Social Security two months before his 62nd birthday.
He'll receive a lesser amount if he files early, of course. The amount
of Social Security received is based on the number of "work credits"
he's accrued during his lifetime.

With all his shouting about being a nurse and a computer engineer, how
many hours did he actually spend getting a paycheck? It's the
information that was reported to the SSA (Social Security
Administration) that will determine how much he receives, whenever he files.

Maybe he didn't mean it that way but "Where's the dog, I'm going to

You wise guy !!!!

The anti-tick medicine I gave the dog a few days ago works really well.
It apparently gives the dog a bad taste from the tick's point of view, so
at some point during the day when I was holding the dog, or at night
while she had her paws pressed to my back, a little tick crawled over to
me instead, and I removed a big tick from my back the next day.


I should have said 'Catarrhini-sauropsida-ovo-lacto-pesco-pollo-
vegetarian'. The disease makes one allergic to meat from most mammals.
Once affected with by the bite of an affected 'Lone Star Tick', a person
can still eat some types of mammal meat, but only from Catarrhini.

This includes baboons, African monkeys, gibbons, and all apes,
technically including humans. (So. I guess there will always be at least
some use for the trolls around here ....)


There is specific mention about Hawaii: The study even found alpha-gal
allergy cases in Hawaii, where no ticks identified with the allergies
live. Human factors were suggested, but no specific examples were
provided. (Section 'Cause', Para 2, Sentences 3 & 4).

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alpha-gal_allergy


What are the unspecified 'human factors'? Is there something we should
know about what's under those hula skirts on the old 'Hawai-5O' TV series
opening credits?

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CpxJsy8nfjA


I cannot understand why everyone is ignoring this. Can they not imagine
the cultural loss of no more movies like "MeatBalls", or "Cloudy, with a
Chance of MeatBalls"?

Can they not imagine what it will be like when the Corm-Trooper Fruit-
Brute Leaf-Blowharders have their way?


Sure, we can eat all the shrimp & scallops we want, but what we really
want is to wrap them with some bacon first. My dog agrees.

That's the credits for the movie/pilot of Hawaii Five-0. The beginning is a little different from the series but it's still an awesome montage. That hula dance in the beginning is really Tahitian which is pretty exciting compared to Hawaiian hula.

A funny thing happened between 1968 and present day. The Hawaiian culture experienced a resurgence of interest in the 70's. Hula was a big part of it. Schools sprang up to teach a new style of hula. The schools resembled martial art dojos where the old master, called "kuma hula" watched over the students with assistants doing most of the teaching. Like martial arts, it required dedication, rigorous training, and years of practice. These days, there's still hula for tourists but there's also hula that the locals can call their own.

I did not really like the TV show that much, but I was a young teenager,
so I always made sure to be in front of the TV for the credits.

This sort of thing happened all over the world at that time (Basques, NA
First Nations, Kwanzaa, etc.).


I have a question for you other than all the ones you have so far ignored
about the insidious red meat allergy malady. (No doubt you are a secret
operative and do not want to 'blow your cover'.)

There was a royal line. Are there still those who meet lineal
requirements to assume Royal authority if the secular system breaks down
and the feds neglect their responsibilities?

I don't know a thing about meat allergies although, my guess is that eating the blood and flesh of animals sounds like an enterprise fraught with dangers. Who knows what microorganisms and parasites lurk within? People should just eat poi instead.

As far as the royal bloodlines goes, the local joke is that everybody and their cousins think they've got the genes that makes them heirs to the throne. The Hawaiians think that's funny as shit. Well, most of them do. Some Hawaiians are dead serous about being the King of Hawaii. If you ask me, any to these guys would be fine as my Lord and King.
