Works for himself. But we live in Iowa so it isn't quite as bad of a salary as it sounds. Still not great though

Holy wow, where are you located if you don't mind me asking? My dad lays carpet and makes like 35k a year.

What they fail to realize is that optimizing and spreadsheets are fun for some people

I'm deeply invested in bitterness for leaving 1 comment pointing out that it might not even be a choice for someone if they couldn't afford it? Lol. Get a grip. I can simultaneously be thankful that modern medicine exists and also advocate for it being available to everyone, not just those that can afford it.

So what should they do without 10 days of income they likely need for food, shelter, etc? Not eat? Get evicted? Sounds like a great way to not avoid death

The last few winters my dad had to drive up to Minnesota when he wanted to snowmobile - we would have like 1 inch of snow while they had feet of it

I live in Iowa but work remotely for a company in Minnesota - we got like 2 feet more snow than Minnesota did with the blizzard a few weeks back. The climate has been so crazy these last few months

This is super informative without being condescending, wonderful job

I hope you have a great day!

Interesting! Thank you for the insight, I've always loved the topic of direct translation vs contextual translation ever since I dove into it in a Contemporary Japanese Literature course in college

Would "just throw the whole thing away" (as in throw it into the trash) be a more fitting translation for the sentiment than "let it rot" then?
