    Just got back from my mother's oncologist. They're really happy with the results of her latest CT Scan. All of the cancer has reduced a little. So a really good report.

  • I was diagnosed with Thyroid cancer in November. They removed my thyroid gland right before Thanksgiving. Post surgical blood test showed a thyroid globulin number of a 6, which is above the threshold

i'm literally the only person at our location with computer access from home. :lol:   but i still rely on paperwork & other stuff i can only get in the office. 

 

at this point im willing to risk getting sick by going into the office to get the F out of this house.

So my son (who was going to move to Florida this Thursday) called me and said he was offered $20,000. more per year to work remotely and he wouldn't have to move. I'm pretty darned happy right now.

I went back to my office ASAP.  2.5 months of trying to WFH with the wife and kids was enough.  Almost went shining on them.

this is what everyone I work with wants except they'd all take $0 more per year.

I probably didn't make it clear enough. It's a completely different company than the one he was moving to work for.

Couple of general questions for the financial whizs here. Life insurance is non taxable, correct?  How about a pension income? I haven't gotten to social security yet.  I was thinking I can deal with that part a little later.  If I don't need to collect anything from Mr. Di's  (that may have tax implications?) and I can survive on my salary, I'd like to try that 1st.

Life insurance is not taxable.  Pension death benefits will be if they are the form of a inherited retirement account (and not some life insurance provision).  You can elect to have taxes withheld on any distributions once you start taking them.  For PA they wouldn't be taxable.

Thank you.  I was shocked that I already received a letter from this pension group, so I called them today.  Mr. Di worked in a mfg. plant years ago that went out of business and it's from this fund.  It's maybe $100. a month, or even less,  but I'll take it.  As long as I don't have to jump through too many hoops.

I'm not 60 yet, so I'm reading that I may have to wait until then to collect anything from his SS.  Well except the one time $255.  What a joke.  I won't even tell you what I paid for his burial.

There's a reason I carry about $650k in life insurance and same for my wife.  It's enough to take care of the funeral, kids, house, college, etc...while still working but not enough for my wife to decide it's a good idea to poison me to collect a fortune.

My dad's mother passed a couple years before him, and that made his spiral downwards even worse. She had a $10,000 life insurance policy that went to him... and he never cashed it. He still spoke with one of her close friends (a guy my grandmother talked to on the phone almost daily, and who I know as a result). My dad was hospitalized for the umpteenth time (supposedly permanently, but that never happened), and my grandmothers friend mentioned the life insurance check and my dad's repeated drunken phone calls about how he doesn't want the money. Well... he and I have the same first and last name, so I took it and deposited it into my bank when I was down there like 4 years and that's the last I ever saw/heard of it.... so I just always assumed they are tax free :lol:

So much time spent trying to teach little kids the sounds letters make so they can sound out words and then we say but this is how to say "the” and "is”
