until you yourself actually come down with one of the disadvantages that they decide not to cover.  Like I said - they make it all seem great with little perks that basically cost them nothing because most people don't take advantage of them.  

 

 

Those things that they don't cover, Medicare doesn't cover either.  So I am not sure what your point is.  Like I said, if you are saying the Medicare program itself needs to be overhauled, I might agree.  But Medicare advantage is better than plain Medicare.

Its expensive, no doubt.  And a big concern.  But I think you are exaggerating a little.  My wife works at one of the high end retirement homes and the cost is about 8000 per month and is all inclusive (food, most medicine, in house medical care).  Of course, the cost may be higher in other areas. If you start out with a million when you move in, it would last about 10 years for one person, or 5 years for two.  A more average facility in the area we live is around 5 grand a month.  

Who in the fug has 5k per month, let alone 8k per month? Legit rich mofos thats who

My dad is essentially doing this. He's retired, makes social security, and lives alone. No mortgage and limited bills. He just has to buy food and limit his expenses. He doesn't need much money-wise at this point of his life. He also relies on the generosity of others.

      Hey You, You Don't Know Quarterbacking

      By strato · Posted

      Yeah and I am doubtful he can offer that consistently. I don’t have many years left at my age and in my view we have wasted two and this whole exercise with him was always a three year minimum.  I am out on that with a guy I don’t believe in, and never believed in, it has sucked. To me it is a costly detour off the right track. Years.    But I am not so rigid that I can’t see excellence. He needs to display it though, consistently before I change my outlook.

      No, when I said rage, I meant rage, which only applies to certain fans on this board. Your timeline of trying to assess whether he is the future or not is really tied to the discussions surrounding his second contract. If this team is going to commit to some monster contract while he has shown nothing but glimpses of brilliance would be deservedly worrisome, so the clock is genuinely ticking for him to settle into something resembling his final form. Perhaps a best case scenario is that he plays well, the team succeeds, but he does so with a more limited role that makes the rest of the league view him as a game manager, and his second contract value reflects that. Then he continues to improve and becomes a bargain comparatively while not handicapping the team around him, and we enter an era of consistent championship competitiveness that the fanbase has craved for decades and has never really experienced before. But that requires many, many things to go right and for Bryce himself to facilitate that if he ends up being the quarterback of the future.

      Bryce's Achilles Heel Is Not What You Think It Is

      Exactly. And the flame throwers as well, get location benefits from not going all out. But they have it in reserve.  Not sure how much Greg had but he was an artist.  There was a YouTube I came across last year or maybe even 2023 and I don’t how to even find now but it had two NFL QBs I want say one was Carr from the Raiders but I don’t really remember  The point of it is they stood side by side throwing identical distances to identical targets. Radar gun was used.  They threw the normal effort (not all out) and it was measured etc. Then they were asked to throw their ‘fastball’. They were missing and most often they were missing high. It demonstrated the same principle.    edit: and applying that to arm strength, give me the guy that doesn’t need max effort to have good velocity. The margins are so narrow with less velocity in tne NFL the defenders can Close on it and this is a league where they value down to the 100th of a second level. It is that tight
