Default Re: If you have to cash a check.......

If people didn't gamble money that they can't afford to lose or could be put to a better purpose, poker games would not be nearly as profitable as they are. Basically, I don't care where the money comes from and I also don't worry about anyone's financial decisions except mine.

If he has a job, then he may have health care. Or he may not, given this country does such a good job of covering people who work. And at his age, his premiums cover those my age, who have more health expense. You may know healthcare, but it appears you may not understand spreading risk.

Regardless, man, you are harsh.

Default You\'re right Cactus.....

My apologies for being such an a-hole in my posts. I own a couple rental properties and one of my tenants just bought a newer car and has like a top of the line cell phone but can't pay their rent. Just pisses me off and I got caught up in it. I'm also a pharmacist and own my own company and see the healthcare side of it all the time.

It just seems as if being deeply in debt doesn't bother people anymore. It's almost like a right of passage. You can go into major debt when you are in college or young and it's just part of the process. It's like peoples personal "wants" come before the needs.

Again, I do apologize for being such a jerk about it. It's a total over generalization and that is not fair.

Sorry!
