HadIt.com Elder evandc Posted October 18, 2007 HadIt.com Elder Share Posted October 18, 2007 This question appears on this site every other week. Each time I have only one reply-WHY?WHY?WHY? Why in the hell would I take a chance of losing over $4000 a month, tax free, for a chance to get back into the rat race & work again? Just me, but if you are 100% & can work are you really 100%?

timetowinarace Posted October 18, 2007 Share Posted October 18, 2007 (edited) This question appears on this site every other week. Each time I have only one reply-WHY?WHY?WHY? Why in the hell would I take a chance of losing over $4000 a month, tax free, for a chance to get back into the rat race & work again? Just me, but if you are 100% & can work are you really 100%? Just venting, Don I understand this point of view but don't share it. I didn't want out of the "rat race". I would love to do something. If someone is able to overcome their disability then I applaud them. For certain, I don't recieve $4,000 a month at 100%. But even at $4000 I could make more when I was able to work. I had the opportunity to make much more. And enjoy what I was doing. I wish I could do it, cause I would. That's the short answer to "why".

HM1retiredUSN Posted October 18, 2007 Share Posted October 18, 2007 There is a 100% rating where one is unemployable and a schedular 100% where a person's disabilities add up to 100%. If a person is able to work, then what is the big deal? Nine times out of ten, a person that is 100% has a few serious disabilities that could potentially kill them. Why not applaud someone that is able to overcome their disabilities and work instead of assuming they shouldn't be 100%? I'm too tired of people complaining about the same ish every week........ Just my two cents........ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
