Health insurance alone is 3500/month xD
>>217769872>is a 45 year old data scientist and only had $140k in his 401k>spending $140k in 12 months on "living expenses
>>217769872Let me rephrase this as a FOOD METAPHOR so you can all understand:I had a bakers dozen of glazed donuts.They are supposedly "meant for dessert" but I wasn't able to stop for lunch. I was still hungry so what was I supposed to do? That's why I have one donut now.
>>217769961Mutts do stupid shit right their money all the time, live two hours by disastrous car away from work with mega mortgage and insane insurance, often also healthcare loans consumers loans etc.Being a part of the 99% "Data scientist" in kentuckyville, Florida also isn't the same as the 1% that work at Facebook
>>217769872Meanwhile I paid like 20k American dollars in taxes total last year, and get all of these things covered by the state.
>>217769872>three kidsWhat's his wife do? We all know single men don't get custody.>3 offersIf he was so desperate for money why didn't he take one? >Your 401k isn't a retirement plan. It's an emergency fund you'll get penalizd for usingWow, it's almost like literally all financial advice says to get your emergency fund and bad debt in order before worrying about retirement.
>>217770489Get a 150k emergency fund before caring about retirement
>>217769872sorry im a thirdiewhats the problem
>>217770527Someone could have ended as a drug junkie in Philadelphia with children sold into prostitution if he didn't do the goy dance and declare he's fucking exciting about learning MSFT Azure'S cloud LLM APIs while starving
>>217770049What's the food version of getting laid off?
>>217771292Fasting

>>217769872There's something very very wrong with the health system in the US. The funny thing is they do NOTHING to fix it
>>217771380Can't tell if bot or retard with negative self awareness
>>217770049Oooooh! That's pretty fucked up then.
>>217769872>In America if you get fired you'll be sucking cocks for money after a month!t. the average eurocuckThe post focused mainly on mortgage costs which is hardly unique in fucking up peoples finances
>>217771408We can't because retarded nigger socialists are in power making sure every retard can sue for anything and "fixing" things with the same retarded socialist policies that have already blatantly failed in Europe and Canada and everywhere else, as we explained they would. Smug, ignorant retards like you, but in our country, are the problem more than all of the greed, fraud, waste and abuse in the world currently.
>>217771456I feel like you Brits idolize the US more often than other Euros because you're basically in the same shitty dynamic as we are but poorer.
>>217771408If we fixed it, it would primarily be used by browns from Mexico and communists to sink the rest of our already janky system. Keeping it private as a market is the only way to keep thirdies out because they can't afford it. If companies could simply tell them 'Fuck off, you're brown' then we could create a proper healthcare system, but they can't so we don't.
>>217771482I'm being realistic because I hate seeing the "what if you're dirt poor, get fired from your min wage job, find out you have cancer, and your children have cancer and..." it's nonsense
>>217771469>Socialists are in power>House, senate, judicial, executive branches, and anything under jurisdiction of executive (and some not) are controlled by Republicans now.I'm curious to hear your take here. Elaborate please.
>>217769872Shouldn't have had children chud, who's the loser now(forreal tho, I empathize with him, boomers fucked us all up)
>>217771522Yes and I'm pointing out how among developed countries we have some of the worst social safety nets for people who DO end up fucked up in some way. Even if it isn't as comical as you're trying to put it.
>>217769961>>217770049>>217770059>>217770489DOGFUCKINGCHILDRAPEDKIKEFAT FUCK
>>217770513>>217770691>>217771469>>217771482DOGFUCKINGCHILDRAPEDKIKE
>>217771469Seething>>217771516I mean, you can keep it private and affordable... 3500k/month is ridiculous and doesn't make any sense.Countries with private health system like Switzerland or the Netherlands pay around $450 and 170$ respectively
>>217771865>3500k/month is ridiculous and doesn't make any senseprobably because it's not a real number
>>217771408its unfixable unless there's a societal reset
>>217771865>Countries with private health system like Switzerland or the Netherlands pay around $450 and 170$ respectivelywe dont have a actual private health system, but you can opt in for a certain degree of easier care if you spend more money.if you earn <30k a year you can get governmint gibs for it though
>>217771660Damn I can smell her through my screen
>>217769872> senior data scientist with 11 years of experience> 140k savings ???
>>217771865That's because both Switzerland and Netherlands have mandatory health insurance.
>>217769872sucks for him but I dont have 3 kids and a wife and I am ok eating 1 meal a day
