  1. I'm sure at some point it will end up being means tested and people who didn't live high on the hog or even make much will end up not getting much out of it because they were responsible and saved.  Whatever they do I hope it doesn't involve raising the contribution rate or removing the income limit.  For now I'd rather see them start to move back the retirement age with people living longer which would impact younger generations (mine) more because no one is going to take on the boomers or other older generations and try to "take" money away from them.   

     

    yeah there is no way they remove the income limit.

    that is pure and simple siphoning of wealth, especially if they don't also remove the cap on benefits at the same time.

    then it's just welfare.

  2. well over due. 

    the best part is they reported terrible earnings the other day, losing even more money than people anticipated, and he pulled a bahgdad bob routine saying how they are in perfect position actually.

    24 hours later he's ousted.

     

    not like it matters, dude already cashed out a long time ago by doing a $1b round that didnt go into the business, it went to the founders and investors.

    they only went public because they had no money to keep the lights on.

    but employees had to wait standard 3 months post IPO to sell, ie when the stock had already tanked.

    still can't believe they turned down $6b from google.

  3. That's the conclusion you came to after reading the post?  Well, I guess thanks are in order for reading the post.  Second, EVERY penny of profit/royalty from LTBUShop is going to Miracle League and on top of that, we're personally going to add to it.  The site's up and running and if nothing comes of it, no big deal...we'll still be donating to Miracle League and other charities as we choose.

     

    Well that changes my opinion. ;) When I first read the page just mentioned you were donating "some" profit/royalty/etc (this was the crux of my previous post);  thanks for clarifying that it's every penny.

    Big thumbs up for the philanthropic effort. Count me in for some LTBU gear to help out Miracle League.
