My best advice to sick and disabled kids, as someone whose been sick to the point of disabilty since I was four, is to pick up a creative hobby. Learn to draw, take up knitting, learn the guitar if you're strong enough to hold one and take up ukulele if you're not. Do something that will stimulate your brain and give you the satisfaction of creation, as well as distraction.
My parents' idea of occupying my time thru appointments and infusions and hospitalizations and sick days was just piling me with books and video games. Which is fine! Great escapism, fun to do, saves you from boredom. But sometimes you don't need to escape, sometimes you need to create, and not knowing how or where to start fills you with a feeling of frustration and helplessness. Reading gave me a fantastic imagination and I created worlds in my head that I had no way of getting out to share or saving for posterity.
My parents had hobbies of their own. Mom's a fiber artist and dad's a musician, and I asked them repeatedly over my childhood to teach me what they were doing but they always waffled on it and never did. Hell I didn't even learn how to cook until I was eighteen. So I was left with books and video games and no sense of satisfaction in my ability to do anything.
I took up art in my mid twenties, mostly by watching YouTube tutorials or checking out how to draw books from the library. They say the best time to start is yesterday, but the second best time is to start is today. I don't create art every day. I have more pain and exhaustion days than I do creative days. But when I can create it feels empowering, and power is something I don't have as a disabled person.
And I'm not saying take up a creative hobby so you have something to sell to fall back financially when you're too sick to work (obvs if you want to you can, but that's not the point of this advice). Paint pictures just to hang up in your bedroom. Crochet clothes for your dog. Write songs with lyrics that only make sense to you. And if no one is willing to teach you these skills, seek out resources and basically teach yourself.
I don't know how to end this post, but I am begging every sick kid (and sick adults too, for that matter) to not just wait for your life to end, distracting yourself solely with passive hobbies like books and games that have been scripted out to have pre-determined endings decided for you. Find an outlet you can do to create, for your own sense of satisfaction if nothing else.

Body Love
I work nights at a factory. Its usually a six day affair, so getting off work Sunday morning generally marks the end of my work week. So in the few hours before 10:30 am when i get ready for bed, i take the time for thanking my bady for getting me through the week. I live with visible and not so visible disabilties so sometimes this is hard; which is why its important to me to thank my body for doing it's best.
This is what works for me so, you may not agree with everything.
As soon as I put my car in park, i light up a pre roll and get high in my car.
Then i take a long shower without music. And before i go about washing up i take some time beneath the warm water just to be present with my body. Once thats done, I wash up, beginning with my feet as that it a welcoming gesture in some cultures.
After the shower its time to break out the fancy lotions and nice face creams, and leave i continioner for a day of cleaning and softening myself.
I meditate for 10 - 15 minutes
Then i go about the rest of my morning things, and before i got to sleep, i do about 5 minutes of yoga to help me sleep.

Why are there no good health insurance companies?
While thinking about the idea of an altruistic, fair public option for health insurance, I started trying to figure out why something like it doesn't already exist. (Or maybe it does?) The assumption seems to be that health insurance companies are causing problems through systematic greed, and the public option would help keep them honest. But, if this is the case, why isn't there an organization doing this already? Why don't the good, people, such as the ones that take less-pay than they could in other sectors to run major charitable organizations, start a good health insurance company that doesn't do any of the bad things that the other insurance companies do. If such an organization were to exist, it seems that everyone would switch to it, and even the most greedy of insurance companies would have to become like it in order to compete. There are obviously enough qualified and caring people out there to make such an organization happen without any government involvement. So why dont such organizations exist? I have a few ideas, but they dont explain the whole story. Maybe the fact that people dont usually shop around for health insurance because its chosen by their employers prevents new good insurance companies from gaining the market share required to make the bad ones change? Maybe health insurance companies are already as good as they can be, despite a few heartless employees, and the primary problems in health care come from somewhere else? Maybe protectionist legal policies prevent altruistic organizations from freely forming? Any thoughts?""

So, I got my license today, but I'm literally halfway through my driver's ed course. I was just thinking, if I pass the test, great, if not, I'll retake after the class and nbd. I honestly want to drop out since the classes are very repetitive and common-sense, and it's 15 hours I could be using on something else, but my mom disagrees... I know some insurances make you pay less if you've finished a course, but is it that significant that it would be worth it?""
""Recently hit by another driver, got estimate for his insurance company. Not sure I should repair for that cost""
My car is a 1994 Lexus ES300 with 125,000+ miles on it. I would say it is in good or fair condition, the leather seats are cracking badly and it has a few scrathes, etc. I'm just wandering if it is in my best interest to repair this car or for it to be totaled out. The estimate for repairs in $3500.00, which could always go up once repairs start for unseen damage. I'm just not sure the car is worth repairing for that amount considering its condition. The damage is to the drivers side rear panel which is now rubbing something when I turn either way or go over any kind of bump in the road. The estimate does not consider repair for that since that could not be seen by looking at the vehicle. They are also saying the paint can't be matched perfectly because of the fading caused by sun and weather over the years. With everything considered my resale value is not good. I did want to sale this car at some point and get newer car.""

Insurance for teen when borrowing parents car?
My parents and i are very confused on whether I need to put on my parents insurance policy since i am technically borrowing their car.

When my mom called about my sister they told her that she HAD to be put on their policy and that I could not receive my license until I was put on the policy. I am 16 and my sister is 18 and it would cost around $750 per month more to insure us. Do we need it if we are borrowing my parents car? Thanks:)

Best Health Insurance For Self Employed?
I really need help finding a good health insurance option. I started my own company in 2009 and have kept it active and grew it slowly ever since. I was, until recently, employed at a large bank where I had good health and dental benefits. I recently left the job to take my business full time and scale it up. I am doing that full time now and it's been about a month since I left my job. I elected to keep my dental insurance through COBRA, because it will only cost me about $23/month. However, to keep my health insurance through COBRA would cost me almost $500/month and I felt that was too much. I have read all the paperwork and believe that I can still elect COBRA for my health insurance for about another month. They give you 60 days from your last day. However, I believe there has to be a better/more affordable option. I am 26 years old and healthy, but God forbid anything ever happened, I want to be covered. Also, if my girlfriend ever got pregnant and I had a child, I would want to be able to sleep at night knowing that I have the health insurance for this. What are my options here? Are there good companies out there that are more affordable than the $450+/month I would have to pay if I kept the United Healthcare plan that I had at my previous job? All advice is appreciated. Thanks!""

How will the grandfathered in medical insurance work for Obamacare?
I have had an individual plan since 2004. I just read you can be grandfathered into plans that don't provide coverage options required under the Affordable Care Act. This sure doesn't sound good!! It sounds like if I want protection, I will have to pay twice as much as I am now on the exchange, which I thought was supposed to lower cost. Obama said someone can keep the insurance they have if they'd like, which is half the price as the exchange, so who wouldn't want to pay half as much? If it's not covered under the Affordable Care Act, does that mean I still could be dropped or denied? Why call it the Affordable Care Act when it is only affordable to very low income people? I am middle class, and I read that only 9% of Americans make between $50,000 to $75,000. Do you think this sounds right? This is hard for me to believe.""

Home insurance wants to raise dwelling coverege?
I purchased a townhome in March of 2013 for $183k in Florida. It is in a 200-unit subdivision that just completed all construction and sold out all last remaining units a few months ago. When I signed up for home insurance, the insurance company set my dwelling coverage to $183k. I told them that it isn't accurate for them to base dwelling coverage on market price because the replacement cost must be lower since market price includes land and profits the builder makes. Long story short, they convinced me to stay at $183 because they said costs were rising and so forth. I decided not to fight it. Fast forward to this year, and now they are proposing to increase the dwelling coverage to $203k (11% increase). Funny thing is that for my exact townhome model, about 20 units were sold in the last year with prices averaging in the upper $180s (slightly above what I paid). I called the insurance company to let them have a piece of my mind, and they told me they use an independent 3rd party company to price the replacement costs. I told them it's BS because it's way above average market price and replacement costs is always below market price. They asked me to send them documents from when I purchased the home that details the construction materials used and upgrades so that they can reevaluate the dwelling coverage. My question is, why is the burden of proof on me to prove to the insurance company that dwelling coverage should be lowered? Why can't they just reduce it to what I tell them to reduce it to? After all, I am the customer who pays for the insurance. If my house is ever destroyed and I underinsured, that's my problem not theirs. I just find it strange that I'm paying for an insurance service and the insurance company decides what the replacement cost is, not me. Even though it doesn't affect them.""

Car Insurance query (involved in accident)?
Yesterday I was involved in an accident, I was stopped on the motorway when a car was going too fast crashed right into the back of me, pushing me into the van in front, the recovery guy who picked my vehicle up said it prob will be written off due to its age. My questions are: a - I am an additional named driver on the policy with direct line, the policy holder in my mum, we didn't select for courtsey car, and my friend seems to think that the person who crashed into me, his insurance company should provide me with one? And if so how do I go about this? b - I think I may have whiplash, my neck is extremley sore and I can't look to right and left without turining my whole body, I am going to doctor's tomorrow, do I get compensation for this as it said online you can claim loss of earnings but at the moment I am unemployed. I spoke to Direct Line who advised providing the man admits it was his fault (I can't see him not as it clearly was) then my mum won't loose her no claims. Thanks""

Why does the Honda Insight ('00-'05) cost so much to insure? (UK)?
Why does the 2000 - 2005 Honda Insight have group 12 insurance status in the UK?! Its such a shame, I have been looking to upgrading my small car at the moment, and have always liked the old Insight. For some strange reason it didn't ever seem to take off, and it was way ahead of its time, and is still a very good, one of the best ever mass manufactured cars for fuel consumption (may even be the best). It has a 1 litre engine, which produces just 66bhp, but is extremely efficient so achieves 83MPG and has a 0-60 time of 12.1s (top speed: 112mph). Remember group 12. Or I could pick out a Seat Toledo 2 litre Sport - produces 147bhp, 34MPG, has a 0-60 time of 9.4s (top speed: 128mph). This is a group 10. Why isn't the insight lower?!?!!?!??!?!?!?!?!!?!?!?!?!?

Should I get collision on insurance for a 2004 Honda?
I'm 19, new driver, and the car costs $8500. I'm going to get comprehensive because I live at student apartments and people are always breaking into cars and stuff.

I'm terrified of wrecking the car, but not having collision cuts my monthly premium by $100. I don't have a lot of money and don't know what to do!""

Estimated car insurance premium for a Camaro/Corvette?
I am looking to buy either a 2002 Camaro (5.7L V8) or a 2000 - 2002 Corvette (5.7L V8). I am wondering how much insurance will cost me. The detailed information and questions are as below: 1. Age: 34 2. Have been driving in the States for little less than 4 years. No accident at all. Only one speeding ticket about 3 years ago. (I had been driving for 10 years in Seoul, Korea with no accident at all, but it didn't count) 3. I used to drive a 2007 Toyota Tundra (5.7L V8), which I sold a few days ago. I paid about 450 dollars/6 months for full coverage. Questions: 1. How much would it cost me if I buy either one mentioned above? (even ballpark number would be appreciated) 2. Do year and purchasing price (or resale value) affect premium? For example, buying a 2008 brand new Corvette or a 2000 used Corvette makes a difference? 3. I know it would be higher to have a sports car, but do my age and driving record affect premium? If yes, how much do they affect?""

USAA insurance rates from traffic ticket?
I received a traffic ticket for following too closely and was clocked at 17mph going through town. The car in front of me had pulled away from the stoplight and was clearly not interested in speeding up, so I had to speed up some to signal into the adjoining lane to pass him. This was during rush hour, so traffic was pretty heavy. The cop pulled me over and cited me for following too closely which carries a $115 fine. He asked me why I thought he pulled me over, and I honestly had no idea what I did wrong. Unfortunately, he would not concede to a simple warning and cited me anyway. I also received a ticket about 11 months ago for not coming to a complete stop at a stop sign before turning. USAA did not increase my rates from this ticket, but I am concerned that they might increase my rates if they find out about the latest ticket. Should I plead not guilty and have a trial date set to fight this, or just pay the fine and pray that USAA doesn't pick it up? Does anyone else have experience with two minor traffic violations within one year and USAA auto rates?""

Phil was a first class huckster, and hustler extraordinare. A man of many angles you might say. he was one of the many characters that I came to know, while living on a houseboat, on Lake mead, just outside of Las Vegas, Nevada.
Now Live aboards, as those who live full time on boats are called, are a special breed, and Phil was no exception to this rule. He had a sailboat that he lived on, nice one too. Nothing gawdy or expensive, just good sized, 32′ maybe, maybe more, and seemed to be a comfortable little craft to live on.
Now he had no income that i was aware of, and though I think he may have been selling a little weed around the docks, he certainly was no kingpin. Now as I said, income that I was aware of.
He may very well have had some sort of disabilty claim I knew nothing about. I can tell you this though, he didn’t go to work. No, I think he had retired early, thanx to his huckster and hustler ways.
You see, Phil, in his earlier days had run a service station on Route 66, somewhere ‘In The Middle Of Nowhere’, Arizona. Now I need to emphasize ‘Service’ station here. Unlike today, wher most gas stations don’t do much more than sell you gas and snacks, back in the day, service stations were also auto repair shops. And along some of these more isolated stretches of highways, like Route 66, that tradition lasted a little longer than elsewhere, precisely because of the remoteness.
Now a remote highway, in blistering hot Arizona, really isn’t where you want to be breaking down. We all know the stories we have heard, of people being gouged , over charged, for auto repair in circumstances like this. The mecchanic knows you don’t have any options other than him, and charges accordingly. If you don’t like it, find someone else.
As much as this sucks, I think we have come to accept it. It is a pretty standard business model, charging what a desperate market will bear. but, that isn’t the hustle I am going to describe here. This hustle is outright scam artistry, fraud and theft.
Phil however, unabashadly told me that they had pulled the scam hundreds of times, not only never getting caught, never even being suspected of wrongdoing at all.
Let me further flesh out the scenario. 100+ degrees, not just at the heat of the day, but for a significant stretch of the day, for a good half of the year. Areas where, the hundred and teens are normal highs, for 3 months of the year, and 95+ for another 7 or 8 months of the year. Yes, that is the math, 10-11 months a year with highs above 90 degrees.
So Phil has a service station, not on the pre-50’s thriving Route 66, but on the struggling to stay relevant thanx to Interstate 40 Route 66.
Many of the businesses, that did so well in Route 66’s heyday, when it was the Mother Road, the lifeblood of the country, the connective binding, of the two Coasts, had gone. Had cashed out, moved closer to the Interstate, or just quit, as the Interstate slowly choked the life out of Route 66.
But where others threw in the towel, cut and run, Phil saw an opportunity. People were still travelling Route 66, it wasn’t abandoned, covered in tumbleweeds. Not yet anyway, not like now.
You have to remember, that I met Phil in the 90’s, and he had this station in the late 70’s and the 80’s. So Interstate 40 wasn’t actually finished cross country yet, at least when he started . It was being finished, piecemeal, at different times in different parts of the country, so though I-40 was seriously draining the traffic off of The Mother Road, it was far from dead. Many people were still opting for the less convenient, slower route. Some, honestly, out of fear of the speed of the new Interstates. Others, out of habit. Still others, as a thumb in the eye of the speed of American commerce, at the expense of culture, of panoramic views, at the expense of priceless Americana.
For whatever reason, many people stilled braved the mother road, and took the scenic route. Some of them went Precisely because it was decaying and disappearing. These were the people Phil was counting on. You see, this stretch of desert is hot, I mean extrememly hot, and automobiles, even those in good shape, are going to act up. They are going to overheat, things are going to fail, going to start acting up.
Now, many of these issues are minor, and most involve letting the vehicle cool off. Quite often, the problem, though real, may only act up under extreeme heat conditions. So if you aren’t going to vbe crossing the desert regularly, you could just take a few more rest breaks, drive more at night, and not incure the costs of repair at all.
Or, perhaps it is a minor issue, that could be fixed at your destination, again, if you play gentle with the car in the heat. But those things, that advice, is not what a huckster like Phil is going to do.
Nope!
As he told the story, the mark would roll in, worried about the performance of their vehicle. Phil would look it over, see if he could actually find a problem to address. If he found it, he would fix it, overcharge you, and send you on your way.
However, if their was nothing really wrong with your car, if you were just the panicky type, or the thouroughly uninformed about vehicles, well, he had a special service plan for you!
It was almost like he felt the need to punish and fleece those he determined to be too dumb to own a car in the first place. Especially, if they had money, which a nice car was indicative of. He was definitely a believer in that old PT Barnum line, “There’s a sucker born every minute.
Phil would give the car a once over, then, commenting on the havoc the hills around there would wreak on a transmission, offer to check that out as well. Now the customer of course, wants to avoid a transmission failure out in the middle of the desert, almost begs him to do so. In effect, begging to be sheered, like a sheep.
Phil would climb under the car, drain the transmission, and stick his finger in the drain plub, muttering incoherently. Then, unbeknownst to the customer, he would dip that tranny fluid soaked finger in some fine metal shavings on the shop floor, while getting out from under the car. He would show those shavings in the fluid to the owner of the car, and begin to tell the owner how lucky they were that they stopped. That had they gone on by, they would have absolutely blown their transmission, in the middle of the desert.
Now the customer, knowing nothing about cars, and seeing the shavings in the fluid, really doesn’t think they have any other options. in fact, they may even feel as if this mechanic just saved their ass from catastrophe, and be grateful to do whatever he tells them they need to do. So of course, when he tells them he can get them a rebuilt transmission, and put it in for them, they readily agree.
When he tells them it might take two days to get here, but then he would get it in right away, they agree to it. When he tells them, that he can save them a little bit of money, if they give the tranny shop the old transmission to them, for them to rebuild for the next guy, they buy in, tell him to do whatever he needs to do.
So Phil sends them to a friends hotel down the street, to stay for the 2-3 days it is going to take to get this work done. Then Phil gets to the meat of the hustle.
He pulls off the transmission cover, throws it in the back of his truck. Then he drives out to a place where he can power wash it, and gets it cleaned up real nice, perhaps going as far as to paint it.
When it looks all shiny and new, he takes it back to the shop. Once there, he hides it for a day or so, then installs it on the car. He fills it back up with fluid, and voila! He can now overcharge you for the instalation of a rebuilt transmission, when all he really did was a fluid change!
As I said before, he was never caught for this. Never even suspected. The sheep came, they got sheered, then went on their way, thanking him for the privilege.
That, was his retirement program, the fleecing of sheep, and the swindling of suckers. Sometimes, crime does pay.
      Phil, On Shaving A Tranny… Tweekaderos In Vegas, Saints and Sinners Phil was a first class huckster, and hustler extraordinare. A man of many angles you might say.

It sounds like it would be cheaper risking getting pulled over and get a ticket than to pay the insurance. Anybody have an idea how much the ticket would be?

How much would it honestly cost me for a Kawasaki Ninja 250 '08?
Im 16 getting a permit very soon, working at a summer job and when the summer is over, going to work at a local pet store or grocery store (part time because of school, so ill be getting minimum wage..) By the end of the summer, i will have about 1,300. As you can see, im looking at a ninja '08 but of course thats not set in stone because i am only 16. But I am really dedicated to have the time for it and I am trying to get the money now. My dad said he will probably put me on his insurance, but since it is a motorcycle and I am young, I'm not sure how much the insurance is... Also, I have read 10,000 people say the Ninja 250 is a really good beginner bike, so if anything i would buy a used one. How much would the used bike, insurance, equitment (helmet, etc), and locks for the bike cost in total? Thxx a lot""

Maintaining car insurance for DMV (lawyers chime in)?
I have a bit of a tricky situation that I can't get a clear answer online. My question is I have misdemeanor on my driving record that is not yet 3 years old. I have moved out of the US for awhile but will be back and some point in the future. I have no use for my current car insurance and as I will be relying on public transportation for everything. For California DMV purposes, do I need to keep my insurance policy up or is it ok that I cancel my policy since I will be off US roads (all roads in general)?

I would like to get rid of this monthly charge that I'm getting nothing out of but my worry is that negatively impact my driving record at the DMV for not fulfilling insurance obligations.

Car Insurance Question?
I came to north Carolina at the beginning of August from FL to stay with my aunt while I got my finances in order and she recovered from her back surgery. I plan to stay here until a bit after the new year. When I moved, I arranged to have my mail forwarded while i am here. Also around this time, I started searching for a new insurance provider because my rate had gone up with geico. I decided on progressive. When signing up for progressive, I signed up with my Florida drivers license number and my new nc mailing address. A couple of months later I received a letter from the state of Florida saying that they were notified my geico insurance policy was cancelled and to provide new proof of coverage. I went online and provided the information but apparently made an error when selecting the insurance company name. I accidentally selected protective insurance company instead of progressive. I was made aware of this error when I received a license suspension letter yesterday. Since then I have notified the state of Florida Of the error. I then received notice that my insurance was still not acceptable because Florida requires that if I have a florida registration, i must have a Florida policy. I called my insurance who confirmed that although they provide Florida coverage, I was under a nc policy even though I provided them with a Florida drivers license number since my mailing address was currently nc. I have had no lapse in coverage, but my insurance company cannot switch it back to florida until I am living there again at the beginning of the new year and can provide a valid address of where I will be living. I do not know where I will be living when I get back yet because I will have to find a new place to move into. Does anyone have any advice as to what to do in this situation? When I first moved to FL and transferred my tags, it cost me almost 500 dollars, so if i transfer them to NC for the time being, i will then have to pay 500 dollars again once I go back to FL""

""I was charged dui + my insurance company doesn't know, should I notify them for $1700 coverage for road work?""
I was in an accident involving a highway railing but no other automobiles except my own. This was six months ago. My insurance company was not notified and as of now has no information regarding my accident or dui. I totaled my car and have gladly stopped driving as I live in a city and can bike, walk and ride public transportation. My question regards an outstanding bill I have for $1,700 to the state highways for repair to the railing I hit. Should I pay out of pocket? or file an insurance claim and have it covered as part of my property damage liability? I have heard the insurance company would increase my insurance rate for 3 years, but I don't plan on having a car anyway. I could use the $1700, however, I've come away clean thus far and am reluctant to bring this to my insurance company's attention if I don't have to, though it may be just a matter of time before the insurance company learns of the accident anyway. I have moved to a different state and have a different drivers license and plan on discontinuing my insurance at the end of the month when the policy runs out.""

Affordable health insurance!!?
For some reason, the insurance coverage I have seems to go up every year (and because I moved recently it jumped up another $60 a month). My wife and I get crappy coverage on top of it. To make things more hectic; we are pregnant (she's pregnant -not me, but you get the point). And beause Maternity coverage runs another $500 a month it isn't affordable on a student income (I am currently in Law School, while she works). So, if anyone has any information on how they managed the pregnancy, or even just real life, without insurance (or on what insurance?), I would be extremely appreciative if you could offer it up. I Might even give you the best answer....or whatever (who knows, that may motivate some people) So, I'm looking for affordable health insurance coverage. It doesn't need to cover maternity...I know thats expensive everywhere. What I am looking for is something under 300 a month that still covers some outpatient surgery, or even more than 2 doctor visits a year!!""
