@GuyTalksFinance Can you do voo vs schg or voog

A portfolio of 100% $VOO VS A portfolio 50% $VOO & 50% $SCHD I’ll be honest, I’m surprised by the final results.

@transplantID So true

Why new doctors aren’t specializing in infectious diseases unmc.edu/healthsecurity… same articles every year , always same conclusion: overworked , underpaid, "cerebral" blah blah. Nothing changes

@EricLDaugh Wow way to inflate dollar

🚨 WOW! It was just confirmed that under the Trump Accounts, by age 18, you can have $303,800 THOUSAND dollars — and $1.1 MILLION by age 28 With no contributions at all, $5,800 and $18,100. This is a genius idea from President Trump and Scott Bessent. 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸

@ABC Why the heck that pick up was driving too fast

An alert driver was able to avoid a serious collision on State Route 54 in snowy Osage Beach, Missouri, after a pickup truck lost control while entering the highway. abcnews.link/vu1c5Op

@RepMTG Agree. Health and car insurance are through the roof 💸

Americans are getting crushed by health insurance with monthly payments of $1500, $1700, and over $2000 per month. Instead of a revolving door of foreign government leaders to the White House, I’d like to see Health Insurance CEOs in there getting chewed out on live television. Health Insurance is out of control!!!

@GuyTalksFinance At what age and how may kids ?

I truly believe that $2 million dollars in an investment account plus having a paid off house will be enough for me to retire comfortably.

@TheViditsharma Can you tell us what fuels your mindset? Animals are great in wild. Domesticating them is against the nature too

So many animal haters—especially dog haters—are surfacing lately. And their classic comeback? “Apne ghar le jao.” Without knowing a thing about animal behaviour, they simply vent their hatred. It’s ignorance, not solution, that fuels this mindset.

@GabbbarSingh I was bit by a stray dog while enjoying evening walk. Had to take fucking whole rabies series plus infiltration serum. And still have big scar on my leg. No matter what you say dogs do not belong to streets. Take your dog inside or keep them wild.

Have you or anyone you know has been bitten by a stray dog?

We need this in IPL. Imagine the fun 👻

@rishibagree Lmao

Disney level of casting 🤓

In 2023, the U.S. spent approximately $1.35 trillion on healthcare administration. That’s more than we spent on: •Physician salaries (~$350B) •Nursing salaries (~$335B) •Retail prescription drugs (~$450B) •Imaging, lab tests, EHRs, and outpatient procedures combined •Even capital investment in hospitals and equipment All the while, clinicians are being told to “do more with less.” Every cost-saving initiative aimed at doctors adds layers of compliance and complexity which only fuels the unchecked growth of bureaucracy.

Terrorists launched an attack that killed dozens of Indian citizens. India had every right to retaliate and defend itself. Pakistan does not get to play the victim. No country gets a pass for supporting terrorist activity.

Medicare Fee Schedule Conversion Factor nosedives after 2020. COVID was obviously a factor here but there are no signs of improvement either. Healthcare workers are getting screwed while affordable care vanishes.

Medical billing should start showing how much of the money goes to your doctor. That might help change public perception.

The mitochondria

Medicare Advantage plans got a 5 % raise today. Yet the Doctors, who are the ones who actually care for the patients GET CUT every year. This is RIDICULOUS. cms.gov/newsroom/fact-…

Dear @elonmusk, I wanted you to be aware of the racket that goes on in medicine. To sum it up, here is a case example. When I fix a distal radius bone fracture - 45 minutes to 1 hr of highly skilled intricate work: 1. Doctor makes 750. 2. Hardware I put in costs 3000 plus roughly 10 screws, each costing 100 bucks 3. The destributor of that hardware makes half on that hardware cost. 4. The manufacturer makes the other half 5. The hospital/ambulatory surgical center makes 6-7x what I make. I took majority of the risk. I went to school for 14 years, after high school. Global period is 90 days during which, I make no money taking care of this patient. I make no money waking up at night answering patient questions of varying significance, mostly, ones that have already been answered. Tell me what dumbass will go into medicine now? @DutchRojas

@HPhobiaWatch She is good. Indians have not seen real tax burden from other countries .

Is Nirmala Sitharaman really a bad FM or does everyone hate her for the sake of hating?

@chude__ Agree. They should not be allowed in public places

@MattCover Yeah right anyone can make that much . That's like 62 million per year pay for 40 hours per week.

I do healthcare consulting for a living. It is simple math that we cannot reduce healthcare costs in this country without reducing the amounts we pay doctors and hospitals. Dr's cannot make $30k/hour in an affordable system.
