Personally I never bought into the line of BS that you don't need to prepare. I was saving money since I was 16yo. I worked for a JW when I was 18yo and would try to put half my check in the bank every week. He told me that we would be throwing our money in the streets so spend it now. I just laughed. Now he is living in his home in the basement and his daughter and her husband and kids live in the upstairs. I know so many who gave up good jobs with retirements to go preach this BS and wait till 75. I also remember in 76 many moving to cities and elsewhere to find jobs. I semi retired at 49. Personally I have been putting money in CDs, and Stocks for years. Also buying real-estate and renting it out. I did at some point believe but I never did not save or had a desire to not save and go into debt because the end was so close. So glad I never bought into that nonsense. My wifes parents bought into this crap hook line and sinker. He quit a good job with a pension to go to where the need was great. Now he can barely survive on SS. I will not give them any money or help. I drain my wife's account down and put it into an IRA and stocks regularly so she does not get the urge to give them money. Its not a mean thing but its our money and on one is going to hand out any to us when we retire. Not to mention I listened to him jump me about not pioneering or reaching out or my working long hours and Saturdays and Sundays. He made his bed he has to lay in it.

She is as dumb as a bag of hammers. She cackles like an idiot every time a serious question is asked and uses the race card to cover how ignorant she is.

Why did Lloyd Evans say in one of his latest video
by mickbobcat inso i was watching an evans video he just put out where he was interviewing a man about how the cult treated his daughter who was rapped as a criminal.
the man said his wife's first experience with an apostate site was here.
i could tell by the look on his face he did not like that site and then could not help himself and said that he could not recommend going to this site.

Liberal vs. Conservative mental health study - what do you make of it?
by Brock Talon ina pew study from 2020 (but one i just now came upon myself) reported that the more liberal you are, the more likely you are to have a mental health condition.
the worst suffering group are white females, ages 18-29 where over 56% have admitted to be described by their own doctors as having a mental health condition.
conservative females of the same age group suffer at less than half that number (27%).. while women tend to have more mental health problems than men (don't be mad at me for saying it, this is what the study reports) it is notable that liberal men have a higher percentage of mental health conditions than conservative women in the same age group.
