In Reply to: Does that mean that her loser - lawyer will get all of the $$ from the old guy?
She couldn't take it with her and it did her absolutely no good while she was alive. What about the baby girl she left behind? Why is everything always about money.

How much money rasied for Katrina, how much money for the diasters due to the tidal waves and what?
Every single one of them have had some smoke around it with the money not getting to where it was supposed to go. I did not contribute, I hardly watched, was not caught up again as I have seen things like this before. They should give a all you can give benefit for Darfur where people are being massacared each and every day. Genocide going on there each and every day. I have not seen any benefits to help them out yet.
who cares?!
there should be a nonsense board!
and.....who cares?

I don't think sis particularly cares...SM
She's highly wrapped up in herself and is convinced that Mom slighted her as a child and adult, though with 4 of us, and a farm to run, it was hard for none of us to not feel slighted. Sibling rivalry reigned at the time. She just never grew out of it. Now, we're just not her "kind of people".
Who cares if somebody is gay or lesbian..
I am neither and dont really care who is. If you dont agree with somebody's lifestyle move on. If you see something in a store you do not like move on. Nobody said you have to stand there and eyeball all the products just to see if there is something you disapprove of. Most stores are going to have something somebody doesnt like, so what. It is not up to us to judge what somebody else does. They are not looking for anyones approval just trying to live their lives.
Who cares, don't you have work to do ?

Gore cares?
The NES (Nashville Electric Service) reports that Gore's 20-room, 8 bathroom mansion in Nashville uses more electricity in 1 MONTH than the average American household uses in a year. And the article didn't mention the other 2 homes he owns.
Good for you! Someone who REALLY cares! nm

He is lucky to have someone who cares. . sm
He sounds so much like my dad. My dad smoked 4 to 5 packs of cigarettes a day, so I think he knew he had some medical problems long before he died. He just wouldn't go to the doctor. It was his choice and no one could make him do it. It sounds like you have made your own nice little family.
Who cares???? I don't watch the
show, but my kids do. They are only doing it for the money. Their kids are the ones who have to suffer with having no kind of normal/private life at all.
Yummy! Who cares how much butter she uses?
She's rich ($$$$$$$$$) at this point.... :) Not another show featuring cardboard and fake cooking sprays? Do we really need another show for "light eating"? Our elders lived long lives on lard...... :) Keep on cookin', just don't eat that heavy stuff every day/night! Enjoy.... 
You are saying she cares about her dogs like her children
You, my dear, seem to be taking up for her. You do not let your children go out and murder just because you love them. A dog who would kill another animal might also try killing a small child. Give you my advice and I really mean this - I would have called the animal control on her. There are laws here just for this same thing. You do not let you dogs (kids) run wild and kill and mutilate other animals. It is really against the law. She could be my mother, wouldn’t care. Accept the response you have gotten. You seem to not even care about the little ones who lost their lives. Shame on you.
Are you kidding? That is ridiculous! Who cares? (sm)
People are greiving and he is worried about what everyone calls him? Is it HIS funeral? He is being extremely selfish to even think about something so silly. Just silly.
Do you ever feel like when you are sick nobody cares? sm
I am probably just being a baby but I am having some health issues lately and I feel like when my friends and family are sick I always try to check on them and take care of them but when it is me I feel like nobody even cares. If anything I feel like my husband finds it aggravating. Is it just part of the territory of being a mom??
who cares, the commerical guy is cute
x
who really cares anymore? My SO and I will never get married
marriage is a dying tradition
Will answer about who cares about Simon
She stated when booted off, "I love you Simon but I really don’t care." She was asked by Ryan what did she say and it was repeated. Well, no one needs to care about Simon unless they want to continue to be on the show, get exposure for their work, land a multimillion dollar contract. Other than that I would say let her go with the wind. I thought she was a real twit. She was really the worst so I can understand her being targeted as votefortheworst, sounds like they picked the right one!
Update for anyone who cares. due to the emails I've sm
received regarding "how I'm doing, etc." I thought I'd give a quick update. Thank you all so much for your kindness and caring for a total stranger and her family.It means so much to me that others are thinking of me.
I ended up going to an ER and they prescribed Cymbalta and Xanax. Didn't the Xanax filled. I have no intentions of zoning out on Xanax. All I need is to become addicted to something.
I am not too happy with the Cymbalta. We didn't even discuss Cymbalta. We discussed another med, but I can't think of which antidepressant it was, but it wasn't that. Was surprised when I got it filled what he prescribed.
In any event, I have good days and bad days. Got a 2 week work excuse which I haven't abided by yet, either. I feel work keeps me grounded. I may still use it. I do need to focus and deal with my grief. I haven't done that yet. Been too busy. I like busy. Busy doesn't hurt.
Love to everyone here. Love is all that matters now. Love is all we need.
Your sister sounds self absorbed and cares about herself only.
I have 2 sisters that are pretty self centered and selfish. Can't understand it either; we grew up in the same house, same parents, and same set of morals and values.
I can tell you that as you love your sister, sometimes it is difficult to admit her bad traits, because as family members we tend to overlook and accept them and have loved unconditionally.
We don't want to see the bad in our own family; however, if you pull away a bit, you start to see things you knew were there, but they seem to become more vivid. If you look back, you will see she had those traits all along, and you just overlooked them and accepted them because you love her.
When you don't speak up for what is right, your sister probably thinks you are okay with what is doing or saying, etc. She will never believe she is wrong.
I take it, she has a dominant personality and you are easy-going and laid back.
Been there, done that.
Personally, I would have laid into her a bit. If she didn't want to talk to me afterwards, so be it. She'll get glad again.
But her money is her money to spend as she pleases -
I don't understand how you can think it is wrong for her to spend whatever she wants to on whatever she buys. It is their personal money they spend. It is not like they are saying give me those shoes and add it to the taxpayer's bill.
And in all actuality, they are saying spend, spend, spend to get the economy going.
I am sorry, I am jealous that some people still have plenty of money to spend and I don't, but I don't expect those people to quit spending just because I had to.
sounds like you are chasing him too much. if you care, let him show how much he really cares. sm
you said you primarily communicate via phone, text, and emails. do you ever see each other in person? you need to back off as other's suggested and see what he does. when he asks why he hasn't heard from you just tell him i wanted to see if you cared enough to contact me since i am always the one contacting you. maybe that will get him to thinking. most guys like a chase, not being chased so just keep that in mind.
talk about Are You Kidding....who cares about your office affair

You are right on the money here...
What great advice!!! I too did a lot of what you have listed in your post. It worked!!! When rules/expectations are in black and white, it's pretty hard to argue about it...
My 2 teens do their own laundry, clean the kitchen after supper, clean their bathroom, and now that they both work, buy the majority of their "things."
The key, I believe, is responsibility. Kids thrive with responsibility. They may moan and groan about it, but in reality, they thrive with rules and responsibility. Good luck!!!
She is right on the money about that - sm
As I said in my post above. The discipline at our former (private) school was a joke. Luckily the majority of the kids at this school are good kids, but there are a few bad apples that would never be allowed to get away with what is tolerated at this school. The nutcase (or strangler) in my daughter's former class at the private school would have been expelled by now from a public school. Amazing what they will put up with for $6K a year and an alumni mother. Oh, and of course they have no type of a counselor or psychiatrist at the private school, no nurse even. They had a real cow when Jenny was in chemo and dealing with that. But that is another story.
Money.
Money or a gift certificate to whatever craft store they shop at when they get supplies for the kids. You can also donate money to the teachers "account" at school and it's tax deductible.
Where to put my money
I am selling my house and moving overseas. I will have between 250,000 and 275,000 after agent fees and loan pay off. I want to take about 50,000 and put in a money market account attached to my checking and savings accounts for easy access for things as I need them and for unforeseen expenses.
I don't know how best to use the other approximately $200,000. I will not have a job. My only income right now will be about $1150 a month from my rental property. I would like to invest my other $200,000 and live on the interest combined with my rental income. What is the best return I am looking at?
Of course I know I need to talk to my accountant and maybe hire a financial adviser but I'd like to hear some thoughts and get some direction so I can research it a bit myself.
5% for a money market is okay but is there a better way to structure this? In a couple of years I may want to use this $200,000 to purchase a home or business so it can't be away for good but 3-5 years is okay.
I keep getting told about going offshore because I won't have to pay taxes on the interest and with internet banking it is easy to transfer funds and make payments.
Of course you can tell I am a novice but I would like to start researching my best options. Any advice?
Money - Should I be mad or not?
Suppose you had a friend who was very nice all the time, to everyone, can't stand to hear anyone say an unkind word about anyone. Suppose this friend had come crying to you several times over a period of a couple of months with financial difficulties, and rather than loan them the money (which would prolong the difficulty in my opinion), you just gave it to them to help them get caught up. It was a necessity and children involved, etc.. So you helped them....anyway...
What if after that, it became a regular monthly, and sometimes semi-monthly event, where there was some major issue of why this person needs money, you figured they must really be having a hard time, felt sorry for the children, and helped a couple more times.
It is my feeling that when you give someone something, it is theirs, so you shouldn't even ask what they did with it. But suppose now you find out that they have purchased something fairly expensive ($400) that is a completely unnecessary luxury item (game), that they had to have purchased during the timeframe you were helping them, and mentioned some other things they have been doing recently - things that you yourself can't even afford to do!! Would you feel you had a right to be upset or would you just say to yourself that they have a right to have a life and once they had money, to spend it how they want? This happened to me recently, and while I have decided not to give them any more money, I am not sure if I should be angry or not?
Boy, that's a lot of money. I think about that old man in WV? who won
xx
Well, let me see, about money
I have been given money beyond my wildest dreams, from money I got after being outsourced 6 years from a previous employer, over 100,000 (where did it come from?, got retirement when I left there to money given to me by family member and then after this person's death, sold property left to me by them, sold a property I had before this one- the main thing though and I have said this time and time again- I try my best to help others out, choose either animals or people, whatever touches my heart. This Christmas picked some people out from Craigs List and did things for them. I do not do to get because my heart is just like that but things are always coming to me. My mother told me as a child I was like this, giving and I really believe it just comes back- Karma.
Money...
First of all, I can't understand why you would give him money...secondly, he probably is getting it from another woman. Guess you should just deal with it, it's really not any of your business where the money's coming from...are you engaged or otherwise committed to one another?
Boy, do I need the money
I might not receive it as I made just under $3000.00. The rest of my income was around $11000.00 from SSD. I had two major surgeries last year, and being an IC, have no benefits.
Now, if people in my income level don't need the refund more than the upper limit that was set, I don't know who does! Why in the world they would need it is ridiculous. I can definitely use it for bills, or better yet....FOOD!!
The money came from
my father- I was his only next of kin- no siblings living on my side or father's side, his wife not living. My son and his family had already received close to $100,000 from my father earlier.
you had money for that
the possibility of being on welfare? seems to me welfare wouldn't even have been a possibility if you had money for her college tuition plus. probably could have dropped a job or two. ?
See when it comes to having money around
I usually don’t have, don’t keep as much as $5.00 in the house but when I take her home and pay her, usually stop at the bank to use ATM so no money could be taken from the house. I think if you needed items such as the ones I listed (hubs said also has been missing laundry powders and things like cleaning solutions- he notices these things much more than I do (1 time had told me he had missing herbs he had bought- did not have to worry about me using as I do not cook). I hate to think about losing the help but then again cannot stand the fact of her stealing- by the way, the panties so new might have still had tags on them??
Where is all the money going
money
Has anybody ever heard of a Transcriptionist winning the lotto? thought not...lol, and if you did, I bet she didn't keep on working! 
He kept his $10 and only used her money for gas.

We can get you MONEY
The injury lawyers always say that phrase and I hate it!
It's my money and I want it NOW!

Of course they are...where's the money in
finding a cure for ANY ailment or disease? Wouldn't you think with all of the fantastic doctors and scientists this country has, the numerous telethons, fund raisers, charitable contributions, endowments, etc, that one cure for one disease would be found? Healthcare is the one industry that will probably never face a downturn, let alone financial crisis. Baby boomers = ailments and disease, ailments and disease = money; any wonder drug dries all that money up. I sometimes type people who are on 10, 20, 30 medications...what a racket.
money
I can agree completely. Robbing Peter to pay Paul. Just stinks all around.
I would bet a lot of money
you did not read a single link that I posted. Not a single one.
Now your posts have degenerated even below jeering; you're going for personal attacks on my family. About whom you know absolutely nothing. As if that will somehow bolster your case.
It's pathetic, really.
Got money?
Golf courses, so I have heard.
Right-e-o -- all they want is more money.

money woes
Here is the real question: Does your husband work just as hard as you, but doesn't make as much, or is he a freeloader?
If he works as hard as you, I think it's a terrible idea to put your money into another account. You need to be a team and if you can't be a team on this matter, you won't stay together. If you're still in love with each other, you can make this work. You should be doing the bills together, so he can see how much is left and why you can't afford the things he is buying. Men are selfish creatures and they can be dumb, too. Don't assume he understands exactly how you feel. Tell him you are feeling taken advantage of.
If he is a freeloader, well, I don't know what to say except that most likely he will always be one. Do you want to live this way forever?
Have you heard of Dave Ramsey? He is very wise regarding money and has a lot to teach couples. daveramsey.com
With that kind of money,
she could have easily afforded to pay you back without filing on the insurance. She should have offered to have paid you half back at least. I think that would have settled it.
Don't take your parents not choosing sides personally. They are probably trying to not make the situation worse than it already is. They are probably hoping you two will work this out somehow. Them getting involved will only make it worse.
Besides everything she has done, losing your family is just not worth it. I hope that you can find a way to work this out. My brother passed away and my sister is missing. I would give ANYTHING to have them back.
counting up the money
Who do you work for if I may ask?
She will get her money back
I had my money back within 24 hours when it was fraud. You go to the bank, fill out the forms, and while it is being disputed you get the money. They will reissue you another debit card but I kept the same account. Then in 60 days they said it was resolved and I could keep the money. So unless she made the charges and just does not want to tell you -- she should not have a problem getting her money back and still keeping the same account.
The lawyer and the money
Well, it seems kinda funny that shortly after her court case was settled her son died. Then, she had the committment ceremony with the sleazy lawyer. Now, a few months later she dies? Wonder who her beneficiary is. It could shed some light on the events surrounding her and her son's deaths. I wouldn't say it's all about the money, but it does seem suspicious. I still wouldn't be surprised if it winds up just being a drug overdose though.
Do you think a) they will give me my money or
b) I will have to take furniture out of their store? I bought some furniture, has been over a year ago and never got it, got the runaround, they never returned my money with my asking for the return after several months of no show. I filed a lawsuit, they would not answer, did not show up in court when told to and bottom line now the courts found they do owe me and if they don’t pay me by the 15th of this month (over $700.00) then I get to go with an officer of the court, take a big truck and load up more than what I think is enough to cover what they owe me in the first place. Do you think this is absolutely crazy for a big store to ignore they owe me and do they not care about how it will look if there is a police at their door as we cart off furniture? I would, of course, go on what I would hope to be an extremely busy day for them, say a Saturday. Needless to say when all this is over I will be calling the Better Business Bureau and word of mouth also so that no one else will be caught in their business dealings.
Wow, so only people with money
have any class? I know plenty of people with lots of dough who are still low class and probably always will be no matter how much they have. It amazes me that some people seem to think that having money automatically elevates them in the class department and gives them the right to look down on everyone else.
And by the way, its riff-raff.
