Hospital misquoted a procedure twice and now wants 3 times the original cost, can I push back? I had to have a stress test done, and I called TWICE to make sure i would be ready for the bill. Both times they assured me it would be roughly between 450 and 500, and they offered me a discount if I prepaid. So I prepaid 405. Weeks after the procedure, I get a bill in the mail asking for an additional 897.99 My family pet was just diagnosed wi…

( www.theverge.com )

Elon Musk’s first month of destroying America will cost us decades Let’s pause and look at what the Elon Musk administration has done so far. There’s been a lot of panic about the immediate but somewhat abstract constitutional crisis as Elon Musk’s misleadingly-named Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) rips the government apart. And as much fun as we all are having watching Congress render itself i…

Looking For a Low Cost Profit Dashboard Without Third Party Pixel Tracking? I’ve been on TripleWhale for years paying $300+ a month these days, but all I really use it as is a dashboard that connects all of my various revenue sources and advertising platforms. I don’t use any of the TriplePixel metrics as imo they are pointless. All I want is a simple dashboard that can connect to my Shopify store, Amazon store, Faceboo…

How to compare cost of living, salary, taxes, etc.? I’m looking for a good way to compare several cities in terms of cost of living (e.g., house, taxes, food).

AVOID Transfeero at all cost!

( www.reddit.com )

AVOID Transfeero at all cost! I recently used Transfeero to book a car to take my daughter from JFK to NYC. The driver was not there when we agreed; he then kept saying he would be there in 5 minutes for over 40 minutes while my daughter was waiting. As she was a minor, the booking was made especially so he could wait for her with a sign at the arrivals exit. Instead, he ins…

Is Cost of living just housing?

( www.reddit.com )

Is Cost of living just housing? I recently did a deep dive to compare the cost of living in my current location vs. some places I’ve lived before. Looking at the official/CPI figures they seem to indicate that EVERYTHING is more expensive when you move to a place with a higher cost of living, down to things like eggs or laundry detergent. However, reviewing my actual expenditu…
