Haha, Tim Sweeney can’t post his bullshit about spending money to save trees on /v/ anymore.Because he can’t even protect his own employees.Fuck you, Tim.You should be fixing the Epic Store, not coming to /v/ to promote yourself.
>>735954539Why would you fight a terminal disease?Its terminal. Stop working and go on a trip before you die
>my husband has terminal brain cancer>how will I cope with all this?!Fucking women are whores.
Is someone willing to trade their jobs with his? Anyone? Thought so
>>735954539I love knowing leftists are sufferingfuck these people. They get what they deserve for supporting and feeding this kind of system
>>735954606She's not caring for her husband, she's afraid they wouldn't have enough money. They don't care they got fired, they just want that insurance.
>dying of terminal cancerKWAB
>>735954718That's a whole lot of assumptions there. Yes, how dare she be worried about not having enough money, it's not like money is needed to get food and rent and basically every aspect of their lives. And if she does worry about it, that means she doesn't worry about her husband at the same, time, it's a 0 sum game and the two can't be true at the same time.Jesus fucking christ you incel chuds really are dumb as fuck.
silence, hole
this engine has destroyed lives
>>735955009not reallyI got fucking tired of niggers here bragging about their pencil pusher work from home jobs where they can browse 4chan for 6h a day in NEET threadsI'm glad they are trimming the useless fat
>>735954539Can't believe this shit is possible in the US.>Just don't get sick bro, Just don't get screwed by life, bro!
>>735954606>>735954718>>735954991>HOW DARE SHE SPEAK ABOUT HER HUSBAND'S CONDITION AND HOW THIS WHOLE THING WILL AFFECT THEIR FUTURE FUCKING WOMEN REEEEEYour logic got pretty illogical.
>>735954672Leftists are responsible for the backwards retarded American healthcare system?
>>735955104silence, hole
>>735954539>I I I I I I I I I
>>735955153is this loss?
>>735954539dont epic play really well? where did all their money go? they didnt save any of it?
>>735954539Why is this my problem?
You can tell who the children who haven't had to have conversations about family finances in the event of a death are lol.
>>735954539"This is Gabe and Steam's fault."-Timmy "Steam is a Monopoly" Sweeney
>>735955182>she thinks large megajewporations have any savingslmeowthe yare perpetually in debtwhen they need to start a new project they just raise funds from investorsall the money you spend on vbux don't go to the developers, they go to pay back investors
>>735954539It's almost like the single income traditional family structure is no longer viable in America. Hmm...
>>735954539Seems like she is a trad wife and fully relies on her husband. Thanks to patriarchy... of course she is afraid.
>>735955232then have dual income, how hard is that?
>>735955182The epic game store is a money blackhole for them. Also from what I remember right, they made UE cheaper to increase their market share but Fortnite money made up like 80% of their revenue.
>>735954539>—Lol... hi ChatGPT. Yes it sucks, no one wants to die. But how many people get fired and lose everything? Her case is 1 of millions. But this will get more traction because Epic Fail Store.
>>735955182>where did all their money go? No one plays battle royale games anymore, and Fortnite is on its last legs.The Epic Games Store is so hard to use—and it doesn’t even have a review feature—that practically no one buys games there. Everyone just claims the free games.Tim just wasted his money, and then painfully realized his game store is garbage; he can’t beat Steam.
>muh free health careProtip if you live in [other country] they put you on a waiting list until you die, unless you pay for private health insurance.My parents are paying like a thousand bucks a months for private cover because the public system is so shit.Just, like, pay for private health cover.
IF ONLY YOU BOUGHT ALAN WAKE 2 AND OTHER EGS FODDER THIS WOULDN'T HAVE HAPPENEDIT'S YOUR FAULT /VEE/ STEAMIES
>>735954539Why is someone's life insurance tied to their job in the US?Don't you just pay a monthly fee to an insurance company, same with health insurance, car insurance etc?
How many "muh free healthcare" countries also have an active "kill yourself" program?
Watching Americans try to justify their healthcare system is really fucking funny lmao
>>735954539>life insurancewhy are you depending upon your employer for this? it's not health insurance.
>>735954539These people make 30-40k a month minimum and they still live paycheck to paycheck. You can't fix stupidity,
>>735955104>t.
>>735954539Good. Let them all suffer. The whole fucking industry and every single faggot working in it and their families.
>>735954672>leftists are suffering>not even an inkling of any political stance is even uttered nor hinted at in the postNigga, leftists might be terrible for many reasons, but being this much of a retard and applying political stances where none are applied/apparent is just as fucking buttfucking retarded as Chris-chan getting his asshole reamed by niggas in prison.
>>735955414>YOU BOUGHT ALAN WAKE 2I bought Alan Wake 2, and I fucking hate this shit!I really loved the first one. The combat and story were both great; even now, I can still clearly recall all the details and the story.But the second one is different.The second one is just a walking simulator with combat thrown in.It’s full of montages, vague dialogue, ugly characters, and a story that’s boring as hell.I got the fuck scammed.Fuck you, give me my money back, Tim.
>americans are now shitting themselves and making up bullshit about other countriesLol. Lmao. All I can say is that no matter how people will complain about healthcare here, by comparison it's still better and more reliable than in Nogland.
>>735955825you're not allowed to criticize that gameif you do that means you're a racist incel
>>735955804The enemy suffers. That is a good thing in and of itself.>how do you know she is an enemy?two x chromosomesdie hole!
>>735955182Tim kinda fucked the company by losing millions fighting apple and also not having fucking FORTNITE on the app store for who knows how long, imagine the gorillions they wouldve had when the masses were still into fortnite
>>735954965worrying about paying for a funeral is an indication that her heart isn't in the right place though. Who gives a shit about funeral costs? Just pay whatever the smallest amount is, it probably costs like $500 or probably it costs nothing if you dont care and let the state do the funeral. Also my point is that it's messed up that she asks specifically about that even though her husband isn't dead yet. It's just disgusting.
>>735955372Speak for yourself. My mother got diagnosed with cancer early and they quickly started treatment for free. A year later she was clean. It's been a couple years of checkups since then and the cancer hasn't come back.
>waaah I need a man to take care of meThis is not very girlbossy of her
>>735956009
>>735954672Let''s see the right's idea of health insuranceI'm waiting.
>>735955985At least I'm better than you, you faggot, Tim.You look like a vegetarian, but you suck dick every day and can't fall asleep unless a black guy's holding you.
>>735954574Not that it matters after he already got laid off but it looks like he got life insurance through working so it would be retarded to willingly give that up for a trip.
>>735956029>Who gives a shit about funeral costs?People that loved the deceased? Is that a trick question? Do you think it would be a stronger display of love to dump her husband's corpse in a ditch somewhere?Question, is anyone in this thread older than 25?
>>735956013who really pays fornite on an iphone, I mean I understand that there will be many kids but it's whatever. The real problem is that despite years and years his epic game store is still not good. I could make that thing better than steam easily. He even admits that it's clunky and slow. So wtf, you see the problem but you cant tell your engineers to fix it? That points to a MASSIVE problem in your company. Because it means that either management is so terrible that they are actively stopping engineers from making things better or the engineers are so bad that they are literally not capable of doing better than this. Either way it's a gigantic red flag. It's the equivalent of walking into McDonalds and getting soggy burgers and you get them for years and the CEO says "yep, we have soggy burgers, it's bad! We gotta improve!" and nothing happens. Every sane person would look at this situation and realize that wait: that means this company is completely dysfunctional.
>>735956029Can't that bitch just sell her husband's body?I heard it's legal to buy and sell bodies in the U.S.That way, she'd not only save on funeral costs, but also make a profit.
>>735956067Damn. Nice job. I wouldn't wish cancer on my worst enemy.
>>735956195the point is that you can absolutely get a funeral for 1-2k and there is no way these people didnt get x10 that amount in severance.
>>735956013Tim really didnt have any forethought did he? Just imagine if he didnt take this hard line stance against steam and worked with them, all the steamies that refuse to use egs etc. How did he think fortnite was going to be evergreen is beyond me and he worked his devs in endless crunch just to get those endless skins on the shop. lmao. its honestly deserved
>>735954539>M dashThis is AI and probably not real

>>735954539Oh say can you see
>>735956874Its also so hard to get any thing done in the eurozone.
>>735956874Rights are not laws. Also you haven't even denonstrated those are real rights.Want to try again?
>>735956531Oh, so she's probably a conservative then. Empathy withdrawn.
>>735956792>Which law is it breaking?laws that dont exist in the Jewnited States

>>735955513Individual insurance plans are expensive because employers get bulk discounts and frankly, it's an fully intended feature of the American system to increase employer leverage and keep wagies on their plantations
>>735954539This is why you get your own life insurance coverage
>>735957090I have never lived from paycheck to paycheck. Even when I was a neet, I set aside money each month. If you don't have enough savings for a year off, there is something wrong with the way you handle money.
>>735957090What. If i had a death sentence id probably not go to work.
>>735957456>"I don't care!">responds anyway.
Americans would get a brain aneurysm if they find out that paid maternal leave is standard in most countries
>we can't give you healthcare because you have a "pre-existing condition" (almost all health problems have this in some way)>the coverage is cancelled so all that previous money spent for the coverage now just never mattered so the company just gets to...keep this? They just get free money. There's no credit system in place they just get money and it's theirs.How the fuck did this system ever take root? It's fucking retarded.
She is talking about life insurance, not health insurance.
>>735957660>It's fucking retarded.just like Americans. they vote for this
>get sick at valve>gabe personally tells you take time off and come back when you're better>get sick at ebin>laid off through an HR algorithm while your life insurance goes up in flames because the roblox gamble didn't pan outOne of the two wants you to believe they are the champion of the people and that the other is a lazy billionaire landlord who exploits poor developers.
>>735955372It's exatcly like this.Don't dream too much avout the "free" healthcare.
>>735957620tradfag birthrate obsessors who are also against maximal benfits for working mothers are fucking retards>B-BUT HOW CAN COMPANIES AFFORD TO HIRE WOMEN IF THEY JUST GET FREE SHIT FOR POPPING OUT A BABY?That's the hidden benefit genius, they won't
>>735957660the healthcare industry would collapse immediately if it wasn't buried in tricks and technicalities.

>>735957346>PersonalratGive it back, kraut, the rat belong to all of us!
>>735954539Did the brain cancer guy design their game store?
>>735954539going through the HR interview rounds can get you one
>>735954539>please rehire my terminally ill husband with incurable brain cancer>also give him full insurance coverage so that he is guaranteed to cost the company more than he makes it in his final yearsit's fucked up that he got fired but he should have gotten on front of it earlier. he could have sent our company wide emails that were sure to be seen by his bosses. he could have contacted journalists and told their story of a father with brain cancer trying to survive it in a rapidly downscaling industry. they could have done things to make his situation more known and as such give him some job security due to public perception. however now that he has lost his job it is absolutely vile that his wife is campaigning for him to literally work until the day he dies just so that she won't have to financially support him or their son. what is her plan exactly when he does die? beg epic to give her his job but not expect her to actually work and just give her weekly checks and health insurance for life?
>>735957660The road to hell is paved with good intentions anon, it was about pooling money from a bunch of people to pay for the eventuality that someone gets a expensive to treat disease that they couldn't pay alone.And then it got hijacked by (((them))), as it always does.
>Noooo how will I pay our mortgage, put my son through school and feed my dogd after my husband croaks and we dont get the insurance?!?!? Do people really live like this? Does the concept of "savibgs" simply not exist for these retards? And why would you reply on corporste provided LIFE insurance that csn be yanked away at any moment instead of paying for a private provider?This is middle-class bourgeoisie retardation on multiple levels
who needs life insurance?sounds like loser insurance lol
>>735955232I dont think there is any structure where an average person can earn enough to just coast along cancer treatment. It requires such specialized and expensive care that there really isn't a way to just save up for it
>>735957713Do some jobs normally come with life insurance? I've never seen that as an offered perk before.
>>735954539dude just go to the hospital. what else do you pay taxes for if not free healthcare?
>>735957747>get sick at valve>gabe personally tells you take time off and come back when you're betteryou dumb nigger he's going to die, there's no "getting better"
>>735958053Yes. Even my shitty company gives us $10k life insurance.
>>735957929ZE RAT, HE STOLE MY DOCUMENTS
Just keep paying for the life insurance with the wife's job money, what's the issue?
>>735954539>if the people who made this decisionShe really thinks "people" made this decision?
>>735958140Legally, a person is bearing responsibility for this decision, yes.
>my husband, whatever his name is, it's not just a number>but let's be real the only value he has is the amount of numbers on his life insurance payout that I need once he has kicked the bucket and can no longer slave to support me
>>735957747Doesn't matterGabe = badSteam = monopoly
>>735957894its a mix of both. Kündigungsschutzrecht is a law specifically for lay offs.i try my best to explain. in Germany it would go like this.you have cancer and can get a GdB, which means degree of disability. people with a GdB of 50 or higher have special conditions if you want to lay them off. the most important is the Integrationsamt, which is an individual team of people, who have to consider if the lay off is ethical, otherwise a company can not fire you (unless you steal or some other major shit)and i have never heard in my 10 years of working in the unemploying social service, that a person with cancer got fired or if, the social courts always negated the terminations
First, this is life insurance and not health insurance. As long as he doesn't have any time without coverage he can get health insurance with a preexisting condition. On top of that he can continue his existing healthcare coverage with COBRA.Second, this is life insurance given by a company. It's usually not huge, but is a nice thing to offer. Not all companies offer this so most responsible people buy there own and having a second policy is just a nice benefit--like free soda in the break room. I realize they're probably fucked financially, but it's stupid for a game dev to depend on anything from his job. There have been years of massive game dev layoffs at this point.
>>735954539Why not just I dunno, get your own job and not rely on your husbands income
>>735958252But he wants a trad wife.
>>735954539>Mike is not just a numberYes he is. He is just a number. Another cog in the machine to be disposed of after its work is done. In fact, the people who fired him most definitely heaved a sigh of relief after hearing about this that they removed this ticking timebomb before it blew up and the widow came in screaming for a payout.
>>735958180Sure, but they didn't know nor care about the responsibility of the decision.
>>735958214that's right sister!gabe = goodepig = badkeep spreading the word!
>>735954539If you get sick while on a job is it really normal to be allowed to sit on payroll for the rest of your life?>>735957934keeeeeek
>>735955525>>735955372This. Its wayy better to have private healthcare that actually treats you then socialist healthcare which just lets you die. And also those people are taxed out the ass for healthcare anyway even if they don't use it. Don't fall for the reddit tier arguments about how its better
>>735954539>just american things
>>735957747>terminal cancer>come back when you're better!devilish
>>735958217So why can't you fire someone with cancer, ethically, according to German law? What specifically makes it unethical, over say, any other illness?
>>735958349That doesn't mean they are not responsible.i have loads of responsibilities I don't give a fuck about. sure you do too.
>>735954539lol she AI-generated that entire thing"we didn't just lose X--we lost Y""mike is not just an X, he is an X Y Z"bullshit lady can't even write about her own dying partner without a robot
>>735954539Anyone else notice she said life insurance and not health insurance lmfao
Fatfuck Americans love to sue for ever tiny retarded reason right?Just sue Epic, clearly churning out Fortnite skins gave him brain cancer.

>>735959336>what i do know is that the laws protects people with disabilities and workers in generalBut you admitted you can't prove it, because you "do not need to know about it".Which begs the question; why are you trying to educate me on something you admitted you know nothing about?
>>735954539You're entitled to COBRA if you leave a role, allowing you to pay for the coverage you were receiving at work. If you're too poor (ie, no income, like losing a job) then you can get Medicare. These idiots are so used to getting everything handed to them. Its there if they can put in more effort than crying in a linkedin post hoping someone with 10000x their net worth pity hires them back

So what do you guys reckon is going to become of epic?I dont particularly care about the company and the EGS, but i do play fn from time to time and have invested some money into itI feel like fortnite is too big to really die, but if the company making it goes bankrupt, whats to become of the game?
>>735956783Where do you think you are, shitskin?
Uhmmm... He willingly chose to work for Epic...So like...Why are they complaining, exactly...?
>>735959348>dogs are a fucking money pit.Pets in general are a money pit. Always makes me cringe when I hear the stereotypical>But they're like family!!!No they're not. They're animals inbred to look cosmetically appealing and cute. They're not humans, they're not children, they're not replacements, they're a commodity sold to make you feel like you have control over something else in your life. They're fucking animals. They will eat your corpse after you die. They do not a give a shit. They dont have the mental capacity to.
>>735959470>just admit you only want to see women sufferi only want to see women suffer
>>735959829i had to take a shower with my dog yesterday after he took a mud bath so as far as im concerned hes my boyfriend now
>>735959723So apparently you make minimum wage
>>735954539Why is everyone supriced about this?Companies are not your friends. They dont care about the workers. They only care about you making money for them. If you arent, then they replace you.The cancer sick dude should have known when he first took the job that they never cared about his condition.
>>735959724>So which one is it, fatso?eh? look at how often germany/poland/switzerland get their feathers ruffled in court over stupid shit post-roman europe has always been a bureaucratic hellscape of pedantic pseudo-nosebergs waging wars with pens and indictments UK is just the worst for it, the king of the petty courtroom dispute>but they broke off from europe...Are You Sure About That.wav>yes i saw it in a newspaperwell shit it must be true
>>735954672how are leftists at all responsible for this kind of healthcare system? the healthcare system in the US is comically right wing to a dysfunctional level without any leftist characteristics at all. there is a reason why everyone here n Europe laughs at you when our social democrat healthcare systems actually work and yours dont.
>>735959829Blame Disney for pushing the idea that animals are humans with paws and fur. Before Disney movies, people saw animals as tools and assets. This dog alerted me to intruders. This horse makes transport much more convenient. Now we see them as fur babies and replacement children.
>>735959848Not that Anon but as an egalitarian I firmly believe in equality. I want women to suffer every bit at much as men until their deaths from war and cancer AND suicide rates are the exact same as men's.

>>735959470Probably should have had better financial planning than , we will rely on his life insurance from his company in a volatile industry .
>>735954539What's the problem? You want someone with brain cancer doing things in a company? Even though he has lunatic thoughts every day and he's going to snap randomly? He's broken and defective and the company is within their right to hire a functional human instead.
>>735955372protip: you dont live in a first world country and if you did you would know this isnt fucking true. you have fell for tiktok memes or whatever garbage the algorithm feeds you since it knows you are a neocon retard faggot, but if you were actually from here (norway, for instance) you would know that you arent put on a fucking waiting list until the last pictosecond of your life. you can straight up just look up statistics where you can see that european countries are per capita healthier than the Urinated Sharts of Muttmerica
>>735960342I assume everyone at Epic has brain cancer. It would explain a lot.
>>735960171leftists are anti-corporate until the corporate capitulates to their demand and pushes their agenda for brownie points, at which point they become their best friends and biggest defenders.

>>735954539>women begs company to rehire her terminally ill husband with brain cancer just so she won't have to get a job and have to financially support him and their sonfucking disgusting. the husband should divorce her ass and make his own blog post of his cunt ex wife trying to make him work until the day he dies. and you just know when he does pass away she will be right back begging for people to financially support her and the son because she will use the excuse then that as a single mother and brain cancer spouse she can't afford to work.
>>735960171https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8nGJ3AjFF1Yits hard to tell because you have leftists and "liberals" which are predominately middle class whitesand the "liberals" are people that actively and purposefully engage in capitalist behaviors while taking on the problems of oppressed minorities as their own so they feel some sense of attaining a goal
>>735960426>day 16348245862845782465 of retards confusing liberalism with socialismits so fucking tiresome, bros...
>>735954539Eh. As much as I hate defending Epic, being sick or terminally sick is irrelevant to your job, outside of how much it affects you ability to do your job.Using it as some shield against getting fucked is retarded and cuck behaviour. Take it like a goddamn man, and stop being a prissy ass bitch. Boo hoo, you terminal bitch. Tons of other people who are going to have to actually live through the experience got fired, too.
>>735960478>liberals" are people that actively and purposefully engage in capitalist behaviorswhy wouldn't they? liberalism is fundamentally capitalist and it always has been. i feel like 90% of american political discourse would be solved if you guys just learned the difference between liberalism and socialism already.
>>735960498>it's so fucking tiresome being confused for and conflated with a different flavor of cancer bros..... Eat shit vermin
>>735960603So you admit you are conflating the two?
>>735960662Because the only difference between the two is the way they're spelled, yes. Your point?
>>735957356In a 1rst world country you don't just lose your life insurance because you got fired.
>>735960501hmm almost like the system could get changed to resemble the systems of actual first world countries so situations like this dont have to happen hmmm....
>>735960603i remember when i was 14 and was a hecking epic nazi too because they put blue haired characters in muh tv shows and shit too, but i grew out of that when i was 19 and you are fucking 30.
>>735955206What finances? You have houses, you sell one and rent out the others and you don't have to work ever again.
>>735960828not everyone is a privileged little silver spoon kid like you, anon.
>>735960498>>735960554>>735960603All political ideologies are in the end the same festering cancer leading to the same result (you being a raped obedient goy), all run and funded by the same people pretending to be enemies.
dudes a dead man walkingcut your lossesthat saidthis is what i like to call "performative propaganda" - press good or bad that is meant to shae the narrative but is different from media propgaganda because it requires real world actors to follow through with a script to lead up to a poliy change or event and which the public can follow along with and back trace to the initial performance
>>735960373>but if you were actually from here (norway, for instance) you would know that you arent put on a fucking waiting list until the last pictosecond of your life.Ok, how do I move to Norway then and get a nice life for free like you people? I'm from the other 90% of the EU where health care is shit and it's either Indians or you have to bribe or you wait until you die.
>>735960373norway isn't a real country

>>735959514I can only assume you’re trolling when you’re seriously implying that people should hold >500k in a bank accountEven a straight brokerage account would be retarded, because you’d be unnecessarily raping yourself with taxes any time you attempt to rebalance your portfolio.Here’s a question: do you consider crypto a reliable retail investment vehicle?
Free healthcare is bad because it gives out free bottom surgery in Canada. The paywall is for the better.
>>735960938well you could stop being a fatalistic cunt and realize that societies like we have here is possible everywhere in the world if you just gave a shit and organized and participated in politics. doesnt help to just LDAR

>>735954539I'll be honest, it's not really fair to anyone else laid off if this one guy gets a pass regardless of circumstances
>>735961086So the alternative is you save nothing, live paycheck to paycheck, claim you cant pay taxes to the government because you're broke, then scream and wail for gibs and pity when life throws shit at you. Exactly the kind of stupidity I was talking about
>>735961181its fucking funny, truly. i have friends in shitholes like serbia and even though the country is almost completely dysfunctional, they STILL have high quality and free healthcare. its truly ridiculous.
>>735959476They've already infiltrated and taken over most trade unions again.
I hate how people with cancer and other disabilities think that shit gives them a free pass to basically everything. Ohhhh noooo you got brain cancer? Sucks to fucking suck, pack your shit and get out.
>look him up>deleted his Twitter to go hang out at Gay Sky>posting nothing but leftist tranny garbageWhile I'd like to thank Epic for ending this faggot, they DID hire him, so they're complicit. Oh well. Good riddance all the same.
>>735961241>*gasp* I've been found out!>what should I do, Claude?>Oh no! My analysis indicates the best response would be to post NO U JEW!!! at them.Scram, kike
>>735957346My programmer friend moved to Germany and she keeps having to come back to the US for certain specialized health care, as their insurance companies don't cover pre-existing conditions like ours do.That may be a rule that only applies to immigrants for all I know, but it's still a shitty rule.
>>735961241>all political ideology are retarded and the same!!!!>except mine of course; Monarcho-Mutualist Geofascist Neoteric Crypto Insurrectionary Pan Austro-Futurism!
>>735961204Yet they are wiser than you, curious
>>735961263You should look up what second world countries actually are. The US and Canada and other new world countries aren't second world.
>>735961101I see, so 10% of the EU that exploits the other 90% is possible for the other 90% by exploiting who exactly? And when will this help me buy a house and live like a normal person? You get free money stolen from me that's 2-3 times greater per month than I have to work for. And you give it to niggers and arabs instead of me. Why can't I go to Norway and get free food and house and monthly allowance like Ahmed does?
>>735961460Why did you think you can just go somewhere and benefit from something their people have been paying into for decades?
>>735961548>Why can't I go to Norway and get free food and house and monthly allowance like Ahmed doesbecause this doesnt happen to Ahmed despite what your Save Europe instagram reels tell you.
>>735961494According to other faggots whose mommies didn't hug them as kids
>>735961605Because she's paying in too.
>>735961006>"grok, use the combined knowledge of humanity at your disposal to create a cure for cancer">"I am unable to generate a response that meets community guidelines. Here is a list of baseball hall-of-famers born between 1907-1991 who died from cancer".What I hate the most is how useless this AI shit is.

>>735954539USA moment
>>735961620>it doesn't happenxd
>>735961494just because your mom abused and neglected you does not mean all mothers and women are like that, anon. its kind of basic logic that anyone with an IQ of 90 and above would know.
>>735954539If the brain cancer is terminal, who cares? Just die quickly and get it over with
>>735961278No, you stupid nigger, you still save money, but that money is generally going to either a 401k or IRA, both of which are tax-advantaged accounts with limited liquidity. Holding more than 4 figures in ‘emergency’ savings is retarded, because you’re sacrificing more efficient returns in favor of trying to self-insure. And then when your estate tries to settle your affairs, you get them raped with taxes again during the inheritance process.The husband could have likely solved this issue for 5-600 dollars a year. Even less if he went with some B-rated junk company. You seem to have this retarded boomer mindset that money in a savings account=good financial planning. Which might make you worse than a cryptobro, I can’t decide.
>>735961006>>735961701Cure for cancer has existed for a long time but hospitals and pharma are a business and you are the customer. There's no money to be made from "curing" you, only treating the symptoms and keeping you sick for the rest of your life.

>>735955372>muh [thing that doesn't exist]Honestly, tell me where the fuck that fucking idea came from? Who told you this stupid fucking lie? I really need to know.
>>735954539Riddle me this:Why didn't he just not get fired if he really wanted to keep his US clown insurance that badly?Seems pretty retarded to get fired if your health depends entirely on your job.
>>735961750>ermm *raises hand* i kiiiiiiiinda have autism so i have to ask, why would anyone be upset that they are going to slowly die of a horrible disease exactly? *holds up spork of d00m* if a cartel member was torturing me by tearing out my tongue and eyeballs and fingers i wouldnt be scared because *does epic spock from star trek impression* it would be illogical! lolzorz! i would be dead anyway so i just like, ummm, would be scared lol!!!
>>735961620It already even happens in my shitty Eastern European country for the Nepalese and Thai browns. I can't get any kind of a job anymore, because they get more money to hire them from the EU. I don't have family to hire me in a bullshit government office job, and there's no social security. Why don't you want to tell me how to live for free in Norway? Do you really prefer Ahmed in your asshole?
>>735954539>I swear that Valve and Newell are evil!!!11!Fuck Epic and fuck Sweeney
>>735961831>Why didn't he just not get fired if he really wanted to keep his US clown insurance that badly?because he had no choice and was laid off along with 1000 other people? not everyone is a jewish inside trader like trump who can just decide to ruin the economy at any random tuesday
>>735958626>pay for life insurance for X years>get diagnosed with something sure to kill me while still on life insurance>company bean counters decide to axe me for "performance reasons">lose my life insurance I paid for despite already being guaranteed to dieOy vey!
>>735961795The prestige and fame and Nobel prizes and worldwide acclaim for curing cancer far outwiegh any money made off of chemo.On top of that it's not the pharmaceutical companies making money off of chemo, so they have no reason not to develop and produce a cure for cancer. A pill that cured cancer would make bank, even if it was only a single pill and didn't cost tens of thousands of dollars.
>>735955009TotallyAnd is part of what's destroying modern gaming
>>735959262doesn't apply to people who do real work but this is literally true for people making upper middle class tech bubble programmer salaries. which the laid of epic employees all were
>>735960717So you admit you are conflating the two?It's a "yes" or "no" question.
>>735961910i would like you to come here if you integrate, learn the language and you just arent some faggot NEET parasite like most 4channers are. other than that, youre completely welcome, bro :)
>>735961967There's still more nefarious forces at work. The cure is for them, not anyone else. You will watch your loved ones die of cancer.
>>735961817My dad dying of cancer in shit EU country, my mom dying of dementia in shit EU country, me having severe health issues but not being able to get any kind of help or free money in shit EU country, and so on. There's only a handful of countries where things are good, the ones that enslaved the rest of the EU with American/British help after WW2.
>>735960717really? so the founding fathers of the united states were socialists? didnt know that. glad to have intelligent anons educating me on such basic terminology. the internet is truly wonderful!
>>735961910Which country? Sauce on the EU giving them money to hire immigrants than natives.
>>735960554>i feel like 90% of american political discourse would be solved if you guys just learned the difference between liberalism and socialism alreadyIt wouldn't because nobody cares about poorfags, especially if they're in favor of a candyland tier economic ideology.
>>735955182They spent a lot of the money they earn through renting UE5 and Fortnite into EGS' free games and exclusive games. Also, Fortnite crossover characters and real life famous people isn't cheap either.
>>735961701>Poor AI can't help us because of community guidelinesAnon, AI it's just a bot scraping text that was already there, it can't do shit that couldn't have been done already.
>>735954606Retard fucking fuck. Im a father and if I was in that position, all I would be able to think about was that my family is going to have a hard time after Im gone, when before, at least I had the insurance for them, to give them a chance.FUCK YOU.
>>735961772>Nuh uh, you put your money in savings you cant take it from because thry give more efficient returns 10 years later!>If you keep it in a bank account where you have full control over it and can use it whenever you need it, the evil Government will take it from you after you die!How do you write something like this and not realize just how much of a sucker you are? Goddamn.
>>735962078At least your health care is free and you don't have <insert current buzzwords here> as your leader :^)
>>735962018You all speak English though and you have zero culture, what is there to integrate to?
>>735962054yeah i fucking hate foids who care about their husbands
>>735962058Why? It benefits them not at all to withhold it.
>>735962138>zero culture?
>>735962150You know nothing of the world do you?
>>735961946So what you're saying is that he's a loser who lost very bigly, maybe the biggest ever.
>>735962148>care about their husbandsThis is about his life insurance though, nothing to do with caring about him
>/pol/ thread
How is it Epics fault this guy got unlucky? They have a business to run.
>>735954574I think that when it comes to terminal cancer, "fighting" really just refers to the palliative care patients receive in their final days to keep them from feeling too much pain. Depending on the type of cancer, a person might spend several weeks in severe pain before dying, because the human body is incredibly stubborn, it simply doesn't want to die, and the patient suffers a great deal in those final weeks/days because of it.
>>735954539If only amerisharts stopped attacking each other and started fighting for better worker protections instead. The reality is they love it when corpos control every facet of their life because it provide an easy single point of attack to ruin someone for being a nazi/commie
>>735962189What do you have? Piss beer and canned fish?
>>735962078It's funny that even here on my amazonian 3rd world, we all have "The right to health" which means you always get care, and if you are really fucked and the public system can't take care of you, the state is obliged to send you to the private hospitals for free.This even include the super expensive meds and even meds on trials.
>>735962243because if you knew what being normal is like, then you'd know that most people want to not have their family become destitute in the eventuality of your significant other dying. he has a wife and kids and would probably want their lives to not be ruined because faceless jewish shareholder decided to have a melty
>>735962307>amerishartsliterally no country besides china and dprk is doing this
>>735962095So why do we need it, and in what way is something so rote and pointless supposed to be a future worth the gazillions tech retards are throwing at it?
>>735962212How does it benefit them?

>>735961967>The prestige and fame and Nobel prizes and worldwide acclaim for curing cancer far outwiegh any money made off of chemoLOL.A nobel laureate scientist became penniless and had to auction his nobel prize because he went against the popular narrative and got un-personed for it.The actual cure for cancer is saved for after the hospital is done milking you for every penny you have with several rounds of chemo that dont work
>>735962307finally a normal person.
>>735962114>if i keep it in a bank account and get paid interest rates below inflation, i’m winning!your particular breed of boomer retardation is something i deal with on a daily basis when people want to retire only to find out the only way to achieve their desired income level is to write away all that precious liquidity into an annuityhave fun with paying the bank to hold your money for you champ!
>>735957660Like you can see on this thread, Americans are in love with the idea of survival of the fittest.They see those on top as being moraly superior because might makes right.The problem is never the abuse made by the powerful or the systems they create. Its always "your fault, for being weak".Americans are just bad cruel people. They see a few strong men atop a mountain of corpses and when other people want to bring it down they see that as unjust.
>>735962310>YouI'm nta and I'm not American.But they have Cowboys and Hollywood and burning man and rodeos and halloween and all their wars etc etc.How is that not American culture?

>>735954539>fighting TERMINAL brain cancelYou're not fighting it. You're waiting for it to kill you. It's TERMINAL. Losing life insurance does suck though.
>>735962376Because it's a gold rush, and the only people making money are the ones selling shovels and picks.
>>735962524Just need to remind you that nature is not culture. You didn't make nature, and it would still be there without you (and better off without you drilling for oil and overfishing).

>>735963195which, might i add, only "failed" because of america themselves
>FUCK DA JOOS THEY ARE SUBVERSIVE GREEY DEMONS WHO JUST WANNA SCREW THE MAN>american healthcare is actually le based and tradcath and any deviation from the status quo for the benefit of the people should NEVER happen!!which one is it, faggots?
>>735963120Oh it's Portugal the land of Arabs and Brazilians (black/brown) and apartments cost as much as in Germany now. Yeah I'm trying to escape a shithole like that unfortunately. Maybe if I got some properties 5-6 years ago when they were dirt cheap but I missed that. Shit sucks.
I can't believe the karmic retribution for Epic (and anyone else involved with the company) unleashing the flaming turd that is UE5 on the world would be so unfair. Timmy deserved that brain cancer.

>>735962298Just go to Canada and get MAID
>>735963192The whole process of naturalization anon, c'monBut the visa and the marriage fees wouldn't break 200 bucks total tho.>>735963370It's actually brazil, our language is still technically portuguese as far the government is concerned.I had friends who went to portugal (because it was easy) and they all came back because it fuckin sucks there lmao
>>735963370im 99% positive that any country we mention you will labed as brown and jewish so there really is not point in continuing the discussion
>>735963601>The whole process of naturalizationWhat does that mean, in this context? I feel like you are using the word incorrectly, but I could just be mistaken.
>>735963601>it fuckin sucks there lmaoYeah, any South America except the actual narco shitholes like Colombia is most likely better now. Wish I could go to the colder parts of Chile or Argentina myself.
>>735961620Yeah, they are a little more strict on Ahmed now, because people started noticing him. Some Ahmeds now have to go out and "work" "jobs" for retards before they get free shit. And Sukhdeep is the government's new favourite toy anyway.
Does this dumb bitch think that having cancer is somehow a magic immunity to getting fired?
>>735963370Apartments in Berlin are supposedly really cheap compared to other cities, according to my friends living there for that very reason.
>735962923i can’t believe i’ve actually found someone who doesn’t believe in inflationyou shan’t be receiving further (you)s from meenjoy being financially destitute because you think it’s the responsibility of your heirs to do your retirement planning for you after spending your entire life socking away cash in a (((bank)))>calling me kike chattel while thinking a savings account is all you need to create generational wealth good goy
>>735963672The naturalization process as in the paperwork and interviews, it's not like the government will give you free food and 5 star hotels for 4 years just because you are foreign, we aren't that stupid like the EUfags
>>735956029Insurance covers funeral costs along medical costs, it's part of their sales pitch. Also companies usually give goodwill money intended for funerary costs when an active employee dies. Funerals are expensive as fuck if you haven't realized. She's bringing up one of the things she's concretely not getting that was expected to be had. This event requires her to recalculate a lot of shit, it's not about what kind of funeral you want as if it were your wedding dumbass. Funny how you condone companies making prospective investments with money they don't have, yet you think common people shouldn't do that with the few gratuities they're given. Or how insurance profits on the risk of avoiding the promised payment, yet you want everyone to be as austere as humanly possible, you really want money to follow in a single direction don't you?
>>735954539The truly sad thing about this is that it didn't happen to Timmy.
>>735963776Yes, but you have to live in a commie block with Ahmeds. If you take a picture on Instagram and tell people you live there, it's definitely not what you would think when you told someone "I live in Europe".
>>735963943>The naturalization process as in the paperwork and interviewsI doubt the paperwork is free. You surely have to pay to become a citizen and get your documents.
>>735963958>funerals are expensiveJust make him crawl into a Nutty Putty cave somewhere for fucks sake. No body no funeral no expenses.
>>735963601How's the availability of extremely hairy (and preferably fat) women in Brazil? I really want to marry a brown-ish woman with very hairy forearms, happy trail, etc. who doesn't shave anything, is this something that doesn't exist anymore at all?
>>735962078You live in the EU. You love american health so much, why don't you book a flight to Miami for $300 bucks and have Ranjesh MD put you in the CT scan to tell you you have a blister and pay $300000 to pop it?
>>735964026Nope, all freeThe catch was that you needed to renounce your other nationality, but even that isn't needed anymore.And you know, you still have to live here for 4 years, and that isn't free ( even if it's not expensive if you come from a euro/dollar country )
>>735955308The wife shouldn't have to work
>>735954539How do you fight TERMINAL brain cancer? Are you just working for your whore wife while you have fucking TERMINAL brain cancer?>My husband has brain cancer and I was thinking about how can I make this about meGet life insurance and kill yourself bitch

I have a solid inheritance claim. As my parents did. As my children will. Accumulating generational wealth and financial freedom are things you never had and never will, slave.
>>735954965She is worried about not having money but not worried about not having a job eh
Every country gets the health system it deserves.
>>735964182>HairyPlenty>FatAre we talking about overweight fat, or american hamplanet fat?The first one is in good stock, the hamplanets are in risk of extinction
Lurking /v/ while they "discuss" global politics, economics, social dynamics and healthcare perfectly explains why they feel the way they do about video games.
>>735964258>Nope, all freeCan you prove it? A link to a .gov site?thanks.
>>735963771That's how most women operate mentally. They're caretakers at heart and think everything should work that way.
>>735954539So how is it epic's problem that some guy has brain cancer?
>>735954539Cons:>This guy will never get to finish this backlogPros:>He used Epic Game Store so he had nothing in his library worth playing anyway
>>735955767We need to forbid women in public spaces until we figure out what the fuck is going onWHAT THE FUCK
> the right wants to talk about HealthcareI dont know where to even fucking start with this one.
>>735964448Absolutely, it should be at the bottom.https://www.gov.br/pt-br/servicos/solicitar-naturalizacao
>>735955937Don't know where are you from, but chances are that your public healthcare is the exact same quality and US public healthcare, likely worse
>>735963502Based
The bizarre thing to me is that Epic seemingly fired most of the people who made Fortnite the game it is right now. You know, one of the most popular games on the planet and a cultural icon for a generation. So who the fuck did they not fire? They fired a thousand people including most of the ones who had been there for years and made the game what it is, who the fuck is still there then?
>>735954539okay but gabe newell is bad because uhhhh..., monopoly. Yeah.
>>735964115>Anon, our company is so grateful for your years of service, I promise we will help cover your funeral expenses with $10,000 bucks.>Mr. Anon, Don't worry about your disease or death, your lifelong trust in us has covered your misluck, I promise we will reinburse $50,000 of funeral expense alone.>"Neat, I wanted to crawl into Nutty Putty anyway, now I get a year of college tuition for my son, he will be able to focus on networking and the life of my descendants will be easier than mine">Oh, sorry anon, we had to layoff whole sectors to keep the investors happy, here's $500 bucks compensation for your years of hard work, bye!>Ah, Mr. Anon, sorry but we can't cover any expense without guarantees, I'm afraid you have nothing! We aren't obliged to pay nothing! But if you want you can get a new insurance policy with us for $10,000 a year for each year of your life that remains, we will cover $10,000 of your health expenses and give you $100 bucks funerary cost reinbursement!>By the way, Nutty Putty was sealed after that guy's incident, but you can use the $100 to apply for the yearly national park lottery if you want to win the chance to die in some other ditch!
>>735964374I'd prefer hamplanet but I'll take what I can get. So what's the situation, do women usually wax their forearms and such? I know that a lot of them are naturally very hairy, but unfortunately in most of Europe they fell for the cosmetic bullshit, and you can't find anything hairy anymore.
>>735964694Dumb question you already know the answer to. They can't fire the fags, troons and nonwhites so who do you THINK gets cut?
>>735955230You're retarded and can't read and aren't very smart and are retarded and dumb.
>>735964748They do yeah, there's a reason the most known wax process is called the Brazillian, but they do that to rope guys, and would more than welcome let the amazon grow if you ask for it.
>>735964623No part of this webpage mentions what the conditions are for citizenship. Just that they exist.Care to give a more specific example? One that literally says "it's free to becime a citizen" or something similar.Thanks friend
>735964307good luck retard-kuni think you’re more amusing than all the people who didn’t read the op and just assumed that this was about health insurance and not life insurance
>>735963771You're probably too young to have ever seen this, but there really was an era where companies allowed that sort of thing to happen, it was a part of the social contract in exchange for employee loyalty. Companies didn't treat employees as replacable (because in many contexts they aren't as easily replaced as shareholders think) and would continue employment for terminally ill people to receive life insurance to show this. Over time for "various" reasons this contract has shaken and diminished, but some haven't caught up culturally leading to shock here. We live in the era of shareholders at the cost of anything else, and we allowed them to trick us all into becoming shareholders, with pensions destroyed in favor of becoming an "investor" in a 401k. We're approaching the end here, and even if a boiled frog can sense the pot it has no way of turning down the stove.
>>735954574Dying costs a shitload of money which your insurance covers.>Pain management>General hospital fees>All the other shit they gouge you forKnowing American life insurance the coverage probably lapsed so they don't even pay out when he dies. The country is a hellhole.
>>735954539>Lets talk about how this affects ME, the unemployable useless bitch that has her brain cancer ridden husband working so that I can stay at homeHow are women real

>>735965296>ESLWhat? I'm a native English speaker.
>>735964934This link explains everything, it even has a FAQ, that also says again that the process it's free
>>735954539Why do we only care about things like this when it comes to entertainment industry? The number of cancer patients that have laid off by the retail, manufacturing, and construction industry is astronomical and nobody says a fucking word.
>>735964986As someone who lives in a country where you're automatically insured in case of death by your taxes, funeral is covered by the state and health care is free, I don't know the difference and I see no reason to learn just to understand the way of the golems.lmao
>>735965229Yeah the whore is so worried that it asked chatgpt for the twitter post
>>735965296>>735965356Oh, nevermind, I get it now. You're the ESL and you thought I was talking about the bitch who made the Tweet, when I was talking about EGS.Apologies for the bloody bitch misunderstanding, saar.
>>735965036hospice care is reasonably funded. if you don't have insurance either medicare or medicaid will step in. i forget which.
>>735962415The CEO of Bayer or Johnson & Johnson or what ever other pharmaceutical company cured cancer would be feted for the rest of his life and go down in history.But they're sitting on it because they want hospitals to make more money off of chemeo, which they don't even profit off of?If pharm companies had the cure for cancer, the shady thing they'd do would be making sure it required months or even a lifetime of pills you'd have to pay for, instead of a short course of meds.
>>735965372So show me the exact part that says it's free.Don't get shy now, you said it's written there.
>>735955804Every single game company that used to be good is a hollowed out corpse worn as a flesh suit by the worst people imaginable. No I won't fall for this retarded anime trope of "if you kill a murderer you're just a bad!"People who worked to ruin everything I love facing hard times is a good thing. They want the same thing for me
>>735965440it was reasonable to believe seeing as, if you read the post, EGS fired a thousand people. i would assume most of them were normal, healthy people. they didnt fire him because of his cancer.
>>735964986>the slave is still replying and hidingTop fucking kek. You just cant help yourself, can you?>this was about health insurance and not life insuranceNo this was always about saving, so you have money to spend when needed as in case of an emergency. Sorry you filthy vermin, but I shan't let you get away with your goalpost-shifting pilpul
>>735954618Hi, i would like to take it.Firstly i would transfer all Epic games to steam, unite with gabe so we can make fortnite use steam market for all items and skins and making millions, closing that septic tank that they call "store".Then i would personaly pay for remedy to remove that nigger from Alan wake 2 and put white saga back, thus fixing it.Then i would stop trying to battle google and apple and focuse on the actual fucking company(the time and money invested to making apple and google not having 30% will probably outlive him, even if he somehow wins this he will not get his money back).And lastly but not least, bring back all unreal games to sale.
>>735964025So that's why it's so cheap to live in? All the nice buildings got destroyed in WWII and rebuilt by the East German commies?
>>735965592>I would assume most of them were normalAnd yet they worked for epic.Should have thought that one through more thoroughly.
>>735965469Isn't one of the main issues with medicaid that pretty much only those in utter poverty can afford it? So it forces couples like this to go bankrupt to even meet the requirements?
>>735965528>What's the cost of soliciting naturalization?>According to the current legislation, there is no tax collection for the naturalization processI don't know why you are so adamant on the contrary, it's brazil, we like people coming to live here, we even accept the blackest vantablack ethiopians, we only ask to not do crime.
>>735965546Shouldn't you be angry at the C-Suite (who probably laid this guy off) and the game directors, not the random programmer laboring in a cubicle who doesn't get to make design decisions?
>>735965719Yes, Germany is a fucking shithole in every way you can think of
schadenfreude is the mark of a dismal failure
>>735954539>What will happen to our dogsWhy is this the only part that makes me sad?
>>735965726yup, medicaid has pretty harsh restrictions. i actually think hospice is medicare if you don't have insurance.
>>735965719Yes. If you want to live in center/West Berlin in good apartments, it's a different story. It's a huge shithole either way.
>>735954574>/v/ tard with no life experience tells a dying man to not fight his disease
>>735965726This is why smart grandparents slowly transfer their assets to their children and grandchildren over the course of decades, and spend the rest on retirement fun - so they are eligible for government paid hospice care without sacrificing their family's equity.
>>735964567
>>735954539I'm curious, in burgerland, is there no mechanism for extending a policy for exactly this reason?It seems like such a basic thing. When you fall ill, are you basically forever locked into one insurance and you can never change providers or plans ever again? Can you never change your fucking job either?Over here it would be an issue if you go a certain time without insurance and then try to get a new one, but otherwise if you're already covered you can always switch to a different one or whatever even given your pre-existing conditions, you just need to sort out the paperwork correctly.
>>735965036If you're gonna die how about just pop twenty sleeping pills on a hill and save everyone the fucking hassle? Better than paying fifty thousand dollars to the fucking fucked medical industry to keep you in a hospital you dont even want to be in for the last month of your life.
>>735965807The C-suite doesn't know shit about the games they're making. They're faceless automatons that simply make the financial decisions. It's the actual employees that infiltrated and systematically removed every decent employee they had because they were too white and nerdy. Often through false allegations
>>735964567>he worked for epic so he must have used the epic game storethe fuck kind of logic is this? Are you retarded?
What a retarded medical system
>>735966040yeah depending on state theyll take care of himthe problem is hes being treated for brain cancer so thats expensive regardless of how insured you areu can also probably sue them for like "u laid off my husband knowing u were about to have to pay out a huge life insurance settlement" or something
>>735965946Yea rack up hundreds of thousands in hospital bills that your family will never pay off to live two extra months in misery.
>>735965726the trick most people do now is just get divorced, the wife gets everything, and now the husband, on paper, is utterly destituteit's a sad reality
>>735966234ya its like anon never saw breaking bad
>>735966040It's life insurance, so the question really is "why can't they continue paying premiums and keeping coverage after getting laid off"?Health insurance has laws where you can keep the insurance you already had for a while after you lose your job. And that insurance wasn't meant to be for life like life insurance is.
>>735966135You're absolutely right. He probably had a steam account. That's why they gave him cancer and fired him. That's 100% something Tim would do.
>>735966234My retarded father did this and ruined my family entirely, now I can't buy a house, I can't do shit.
>>735965514>the shady thing they'd do would be making sure it required months or even a lifetime of pills you'd have to pay for, instead of a short course of meds.That's exactly what chemo is you fucking mongoloid. Far more often than not the tumor develops resistance and comes back, so the patient buys more chemo, more pills, more dangerous chemicals that require "specialized hospital settings" to administer. And after they're done suffering through several chemo regimens that fail every time, after the tumor grows and metastasizes, after they're ready to die, the "new, experimental, dangerous" therapy with a 99% cancer clearance rate is offered to them. Costs them an arm and a leg of course. And they always pay up.See how the profits are made over several years of keeping a suffering patient alive and dripfed?
>>735966234That's not how that works. Again, no life experience. You toddlers don't know shit
>>735966040there's a lot of misunderstanding about this. it's not health insurance. it's life insurance. when you die and meet the conditions of the policy your family gets a check. it's normally to cover funerals, but it can take over 6 months to get the check so its awkward for that. it costs the company probably less than $50/mo/employee to offer a $10k payout/employee as a benefit. a private individual can buy life insurance and is usually advised to do so. those policies are cheaper when you're young and get more expensive as you age and accumulate health issues. health insurance is a different beast. as long as you don't lapse and go through a period without health insurance preexisting conditions usually don't matter. and companies that aren't tiny are required to offer cobra benefits to people they lay off. cobra allows a person to pay monthly and keep the same health insurance for up to a year.
>>735966227>the problem is hes being treated for brain cancer so thats expensive regardless of how insured you areI mean yeah definitely but in the post, that woman is specifically complaining that he lost his work insurance and they can't find a new one because of the pre-existing condition. Not because it's expensive or anything.>>735966280Oh yeah, that's even more retarded.
>>735956223Mobile games and in app purchases are a massive massive market, fortnite with its former popularity on the ios app store absolutely would have made an unimaginable amount of money. It's already too late, that generation moved onto roblox and other live service stuff
>>735966110>The guys at top who have all the power and get paid all the money don't make the decisions>it's the powerless guy at the bottom who doesSJW entryism is a real thing in many fields, but it's often in HR and management that they infiltrate. The only exception is when they want to form or take over unions, then they deign to take entry-level jobs where they have to do real work.
>>735954539FAKE NEWS:it is illegal for health insurance companies to deny coverage, charge higher premiums, or exclude treatment for pre-existing conditions under the Affordable Care Act (ACA). Since 2014, insurers cannot refuse coverage based on health history, including chronic illnesses like diabetes or cancer. This protection applies to Marketplace, employer, and individual plans.
>>735966484ILLITERATE SPOTTED:it's not fucking health insurance.
>>735966313>after they're ready to die, the "new, experimental, dangerous" therapy with a 99% cancer clearance rate is offered to them. Costs them an arm and a leg of course. And they always pay up.Please tell me more about this new experimental therapy with such an amazing cure rate.I can believe this is what happens cause I know corporations are shady and amoral, but I need to see some evidence this cure actually exists.
Americans live in a place where getting sick will cost you your job and put you into endless debt you cannot ever repay, and your children or nearest family will inherit the debt when you die from the lack of care you can't afford. And then they try to tell you that the US is the greatest nation on earth and nowhere else has it as good as they do.Say what you will about them, but there isn't a funnier people on this planet.
>>735966565Look up Carvykti and its many copycats.

>>735966558that's her fault for not having existing coverage.I have a $250,000 benefit for my my family, and I've had it though my bank since I was 28.Also:https://www.aflac.com/resources/life-insurance/life-insurance-for-cancer-patients.aspxThey have specific plans for cancer patients. They cost more, and usually pay out less, but you can easily cover the cost of a funeral with them.

>>735954539>fighting terminal cancernigga you dead
>>735966794i mean basically. they should have used a financial advisor. i can understand some single dude making bad decisions, but he was making 6 figures and had a wife and kids. it's time to do financial planning when you get married at least nevermind not planning for your kids' future. dealing with aging parents or even watching your parents deal with their aging parents should have clued them in.
why are americans such bootlickers?
It's kinda funny how the "land of the free" managed to convert from actual slavery to employment slavery.Just imagine for a moment, you've done everything in life "right", you've always done the best you can and yet being made redundant because of whatever reason (you probably can be fired without cause too), your entire healthcare is gone, the only healthcare you can get is from doing it yourself or being scammed by hospitals.It's honestly bleak as fuck. A slave to your employer, your entire families wellbeing is just a data point that they can cut to save money and you're left to fend for yourself.
>>735966976It starts when they get ritually mutilated at birth to give the doctor their first ever tip and it's all downhill from there.
>>735959262You should have called out that he mentioned putting aside money even as a neet. He was screaming to us that he lives with his parents and just collected government gibs and therefore his whole viewpoint is invalid.
>>735967132i'm shocked that someone as stupid as you are actually made here. did you have help?
>>735967239Very intelligent rebuttal anon. I can see you must had headed a debate club.Bravo, it's most impressive.
People in this thread will seriously slob the knob of a guy who looks like that dog who chewed the remote. I don't know what made you all so broken, but you deserve your misery.
>>735965782"No tax collection" doesn't mean "No cost".
let this be a lesson to all of you fucks to do end of life planning. get your wishes on paper with a lawyer and don't leave shit up to your family. there's the 5 wishes outline or whatever. you need to define what they should do in different situations, what you want done with your body, and what should happen to your assets. get your dnr wishes specified. if you're young and employed and don't have a financial planner you should get one. many accountants double as one so they can do your taxes and help with shit like getting life insurance and other insurance in place. you'll regret it if you don't. this isn't limited to burgers.
>>735967132I disagree. The misery is so pronounced and all-encompassing that it turns back around into humour. The whole place is like a parody of itself.If there is a hell, Satan probably already killed himself knowing he couldn't make anything worse than the US has to offer.
>>735954539how does anyone take seriously a story like this? more so if it was written by chatgpt
>>735967176
>>735962376we don't and it's not and never will be used for anything worthwhile because it's a chatbot; it's first and foremost a surveillance beast system tool. the only ones shilling AI are either bots, sour grapes, retards, or people whose literal job is to shill it

>>735967650That sounds like his mistake, honestly.
>>735966672>your children or nearest family will inherit the debt when you dieYou can't inherit debt in the US.It can eat up all of the inheritance you expected to get, which can also be devastating, but you won't inherit what's left unpaid.
Where did that guy get the absolute audacity to think for even a second that he'd have a good life in the US? This is clearly punishment for his hubris.
>>735965514>why make trillions treating symptoms when you can make billions curing the cause??...you fundemantally misunderstand the entire medical industry. they're not your friends nor are they benevolent; they don't want you to be healthy because they'd lose a customer - they're here to make money off of your suffering
>>735968070But I can't get sick again later if I die from cancer before I'm 40. And it's the elderly that brings in the most pharma income.
>>735963370Escape to where exactly? there is nowhere to go
>>735967971How is that not a free money glitch? That can’t be the whole truth.
Ummm huh?
>>735954539your job isn't a charity
>>735968346I think there's some caveats on giving out large gifts shortly before an expected death like suicide or whatever, and also a lot of institutions will not give out loans to old and dying people with no collateral. The most common way old people pay for treatment is reverse mortgaging their home which means it gets repossessed by parasites afterwards.
>>735955121They sure are. If they didn't flood the country with tens of millions of turdies just so they could harvest them for votes, such a healthcare system would probably be feasible.
>735965631retard-kun, i’m comparing you to the people confusing the type of insurance being discussed, and saying your fundamental ignorance of financial planning (our discussion) is more amusing than their conflating of insurance types. but maybe that’s too complex for you, my adorable little mental midget.
>>735968594Maybe you should learn how to reply to posts before you shit all over your keyboard like that.

>>735968778well, he has health insurance, so there are limits.

>>735966429HR and management isn't the C-suite. You're agreeing with me lol
terminal contrarianism is the brain cancer that is killing this nation>worked years to pay for insurance>got fired and the company kept all that money anywayit's clear as day that this situation is incredibly fucked up, but still you faggots feel the need to defend the jews at Epic, just because some faceless fuckers on the internet dared to express their opinion
>>735954539
There are two types of people itt>Normal people who understand healthy marriages are partnerships and also money isn't free>Activated Amerifaggots and turd worlders coping with how shit their lives are The misanthropy is palpable, I would call you losers but you already now. That's the source of your anger, being an actual life loser.
>>735968594>even after all this time >the btfo kike slave is still trying to act smug and get the last wordTop kek. It's the best kind of vindication one can get when dealing with you rats.
>>735955182They had too much invested in Fortnite, which within the last couple years finally stopped growing and printing as much money as it was before.Sucks for the employees who got laid off, but it's good for the gaming landscape in general as it means other shooters will soon stop chasing the battle royale trend
>>735963771Yes, if you have AIDS
>>735959540>wow people with terminal brain cancer shouldn't get fucked iver like that>hey so according to this technically in the argument you are wrong and germany shouldn't help people with cancerGg
Cancer fucking sucks. I got a friend with both testicular cancer and thyroid cancer. Also why the fuck is healthcare is so fucking expensive in america?I know the answer is just jews and greed but even so it makes no sense to me how that shit is so expensive there where everywhere else is mostly pretty cheap.
>>735954539How is that his fault?
>>735966280not all life insurance is meant to be for life, is your first mistakeemployee policies are generally (but not always) term policies, which function the same as other types of insurance (no equity in the policy through payments)also, employee policies are underwritten as group policies; that is, the employee pool is sharing the insurable risk. and since people GENERALLY don’t die during their working years, this is why a company can usually just front the cost for employees (it ends up being very cheap because term is cheap to begin with)when you leave the employee pool, all those underwriting assumptions go out the window. you are now the sole insurance risk for the writing company. and in a case like OP, no life insurance company will ever write you a policy.like i and others in the thread said, the prudent thing would have been to get a personal policy at some point in the past
>>735956403he did but went on record to say he would rather blow through millions upon millions of dollars if it meant defeating apple, dudes got one fucking hell of a grudge for no reason
>>735970075Sources tell me he directly looked into anyone who had terminal cancer and fired them.
Epic games is fighting the largest monopoly in gaming, and because of Gabe's bullshit they're losing. If you don't want layoffs to keep happening then support their fight to save gaming or pipe the fuck down.
>>735970067>where everywhere else is mostly pretty cheapillusion. euros are forced to pay a monthly sub regardless if they're using it or not and it adds up real fast. then when they finally do have to use it they are met with shit service and long-ass queues because public healthcare doesn't have to give a shit about providing quality service so they end up having to pay to go private anyway
>>735954539but remember timtim thinks he's the good guy.
>>735969690This place is infected by redditors and x posters, buncha nerds doing this emoji but in literally every thread

>>735970312>support the shittier platform that contributed to the cancer that is exclusivity, and their bloated, unoptimized, smearing UE5 engine plaguing gamesNah, them losing is a net positive.
>>735970360Tencent Timmy has bought a lot of land with his fortnite money and he's waiting for an offer from someone who wants to buy it to build a data center so he's a hecking great guy actually, not like that evil monopoly player Gaben.
>>735970067The insurance. Basically, because prices are obscured between the hospital-insurance you cannot shop for best price, and often don't even have many choices for supported doctors. You get forced into emergency situations which end up costing you tens of thousands because you had to use the insured doctor/hospital, never knowing the private practice around the corner would have been cheaper out of pocket.>>735970075When you are a leader, especially public facing, the failures are your responsibility even moreso than the wins. That's called being a grown up.
>>735970168Those group policies can branch into individual policies with the right insurance broker. That just means Epic hires the shittiest cheapest scammiest insurance company of all. Payouts are indeed a liability that insurance companies bet against, but they're already reasonably capable of covering it, and in a case like this that the family is turning to publicity, it can even become an asset of goodwill. That's something the family could play and get at least something out of it, making it public was a good move.
>>735970648Yes, you are a retard. The curious thing is why to thought everyone needed to know that.
>>735970490You are a female minus the pussy. Don't transition though, it never works.
>>735954539>brain cancerthat's pretty much everyone in the gaming industry. can you be more specific? I thought all these retards had brain cancer...
>>735954539>Tim Sweeney fires all of his staff
>we can't cure cancer>it's too profitable
>>735970775Learn to write, jeet
>>735970168What compels you to argue from the perspective of the insurance company first? Is it deliberate contrarionism, or are you a corpo slave by nature?
>>735970730>insuranceIt's lawsuits.Insurance is by no means that out of hand in other countries, it doesn't even need special laws, they just abide to what people can reasonably pay in their lives.The problem is those law coyotes keep attacking with unreasonable quality of care standards, to the point the human condition of the workers becomes a greater liability than cost of care alone. Ti reduce the liability of mistake, they will run thousands of unnecessary costly testing that the insurance ends up covering. The insurer is still subject to what little people can reasonably pay, so they retort to extort money from companies doing well or fuck over outliers like this cancer dude to stay afloat.The lawyers? They have no liability whatsoever. They take it all.
>>735954539Epic shills will defend this
>>735965897Because you are a subhuman
>>735954539everyone who works at epic games has brain cancer
you have to be stupid dying retard to work with this faggot
>>735970965Supply and demand, buddy. Laif iz faire.
>>735966040Like everywhere elseGet ill and try to get insurance, public if you are not covered for any reason, or otherwise
>>735970965>it's too profitable to pretend to treat it instead of curing it for goodYes.
>>735970067A huge % of Americans are cucked into thinking there shouldn't be any public systems for taking care of people, and nothing should ever happen unless a private entity is profiting from it by inflicting harm and being exploitative. That a private firefighting company should be able to allow your home to burn down, if someone can profit off of that. And the same principles apply to healthcare and so on
>>735970067It's a racketTheres a 3- way price fixing exchange between pharmaceutical supply, hospitals and insurance providersAnd as long as licensing/regulators are in their pocket there's no real risk of external markets stealing business since there's very little you can import/export when it comes to healthcare, you're just forced to buy into the insurance in order to be able to afford the absurd pricing
>>735971168Actually an important point. American culture is VERY litigious, even our president actively sues people while in office. We have lawsuits going down to sub-$1000 amounts, small claims courts, and we even televise it for entertainment. Thread is sage, but at least something intelligent was said today.
>>735970770oh believe me, i know how dogshit some insurance companies can be. the interactions i have with doing replacements against junk-rated companies are both endlessly amusing and infuriating.i’m sure epic paid for a B+ rated company at best.>735970786you seem mad you’re not getting your (you)s little buddy. you gonna cry? ask mommy for some tendies?
>>735966040> you can always switch to a different one or whatever even given your pre-existing conditionsWho would do such a thing, go in the internet and tell lies
who here actually uses Epic?
>epic is super gay
>>735954574>Stop working and go on a tripyeah Tim, not everyone is a CEO and a fucking boss like you lol, the moment your worker take a piss break you fired them like its a big deal of something
>>735971270They're like a dark parody of humanity. Anything evil, cruel, morally debased, degenerate or inhumane you can think of, they've already done and found a way to make money off of. Muslims are a close second even it comes to being a plague on humankind, but they're not wrong when they call the US the "Great Satan".
>fuck Tim>what's Timmy gonna do?he'll fire his retarded staff
>>735956874Most states in America are at-will employment. Your employer can just up and for you for any reason, or even no reason, and legally there's nothing you can do about it. On the flip side, if you don't like your job, you can just stop showing up and go look for another job and there is legally nothing they can do about it.
>>735971270where do you get this info from?
>>735971997this is incorrect.
>>735968531>I think there's some caveats on giving out large gifts shortly before an expected deathIn general any gift of more than $11,000 a year (this amount may have risen in the decade since I studied it) to a dependent or descendant is taxed heavily. Hence why wise grandparents give their grandkids $11,000 a year (often in 529 plans or annuities or other financial instruments where the grandkids can't just blow all the money) over decades to avoid that end.
>>735971997>you can just stop showing up and go look for another job and there is legally nothing they can do about itWhere can't you do this tho?
>>735971997thats what i did i just left on lunch one day didnt show up and kept getting a paycheck til they fired me via mailalso jesus christ it unverified my session i had to fucking go through that shit again

>>735970168>employee policies are generally (but not always) term policiesGood point, though OP doesn't make it sound that way.>also, employee policies are underwritten as group policies; that is, the employee pool is sharing the insurable risk. and since people GENERALLY don’t die during their working years, this is why a company can usually just front the cost for employees (it ends up being very cheap because term is cheap to begin with)But they're also getting this insurance when they're young and healthy, so that seems irrelevant, as it would be the same price for the majority of people, even smokers, at that age. >>735971147Perhaps he worked in the industry at some point? He's not saying 'lick the boot', just trying to explain how it works.
