    And all this hoopla, my finance friends get a check every March to the tune of 500K-1M dollars in bonus. I see patients for $100 each. I'm the devil?

    You have a lot to learn of who really controls the pieces in this world.

    FYI, medicaid or uninsured, when I see them - guess how much I make out of that? $15 per patient.

    But yet, I take/shoulder all the liability all the same.
    You make it sound as though you are a victim, when the facts say otherwise. I would love to have your burdens. We all have issues in life, and it seems as though you feel your burdens are somehow more important, and therefore you need to share them with the world.

    Point is Joey, that a good chunk your posts revolve around money, and how much something costs, 10k speakers for a baby's room, how much you make and how much you have. It is offputting to many to hear you carry on about such things. It comes across as you are somehow thinking that you are better than everybody else.

    You never chime in on how good somebody's LSIM's are or congratulate others on finally scraping together the funds to buy that used ten year old preamp they have been wanting. It is always about you spending the equivalent of what many make in a year on some piece of gear, or your tax bill being able to cover section 8 housing and food stamps for a small village.

    I think many are just tired of hearing about it, especially when you never seem to have a nice thing to say about what others are able to put together.

    The hell?

    You don't know Joey. Yeah, he plays on a higher level than us. Yeah, he approaches the hobby differently than us. Why do you hold that against him? He worked his **** off to get there so let him enjoy it.

    You don't know Joey. I've seen him congratulate people on their gear and post positively about gear that is well below his 'playing field'.

    You don't know Joey. You don't know what he did for me and my daughter shortly after my wife passed away. You don't know that I'm tearing up just remembering that specific instance in my life.



    Thanks Skip

    Hey John, we can be civil. Thanks

    I’ll be more cognizant of posting things that look like I’m rubbing things in people’s faces even though it’s not my intent, you cut me some slack.

    2 words.

    Mag citrate

    In residency aka Trauma Call we used to see who could last the longest without taking a dump. It was crazy.

    I never partake in the dump olympics but I witnessed a lot of brown.

    Well, this has certainly devolved.....in before the close. Sheesh!

    Unlike others, we can evolve. John and I have made up, it's all good.

    This is how an argument on a forum space should be. All is civil.
