  • My mother had dementia but that didn’t kill her. Diverticulitis in her intestines ruptured and she died from sepsis. It was pretty awful, she was in a lot of pain and hospice was brutal because it didn’t Help her pass for 7 days. Watching a parent shut down over the course of a week and having nurses who are more or less butchers with syringes make up stories because they’re sadistic about what your mother is going through and when she’s going to pass and all of the in between made my last few days with her days I will never forget.















  • Maybe they should do something like a milestone payment. So you’re able to put money away like social security but you can access it every 10 years. So if I put money away from 20 to 30 I can access that money at 30 and then I can put money away from 30 to 40 and then I can access that money at 40. The whole idea of working your entire life to if you’re lucky get social security at 65 is kind of ridiculous to me because you’re more prone to drop dead during the 65 to 75 decade. So what a waste that is. If I could get myself 5,000 extra dollars when I hit 30 from the savings that I accrued from the decade prior that would be something.
