He should do the same. And not be on vacation while collecting UE. That pisses me off to no end. UE didn't like it either because they made him pay it back and then cut his benes in half for a certain time period as a penalty.
Damn, I would like to take the high road on this one. BUT if I ever had a period of time where I wasn't employed (I have been working for over 30 years straight already, and I have about 30 more to go. Something is bad wrong with that.), my ass would be in a cheap hotel at the beach or in the mountains. Or in a trailer in the woods. That sounds better and better every day.
Does he pay child support? I'm not clear on that. (NM, just read that other post.)
I never asked for an increase and I didn't get any for many years. I always made enough to deal with that. I still give the big ones money all the time. I'm not much of a money person. Although, I'm going to hold up on that a little because I want to retire early. There are more important things than money. Money is just a tool. It isn't worth what it is doing to your psyche, ramsey. It just isn't.
