freefallfreak 0 #27 March 8, 2004 Thank you, Chuck. As a 100% service-connected disabled veteran, I concur with all you said. I have no idea where people get the idea that they have no benefits as a retiree, but it's just not true. The benefits are there. A person just has to know which papers to fill out.

Luv2Fall 0 #28 March 8, 2004 Not true, Lee. Both my family and I have medical benefits as a result of my retirement. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

freefallfreak 0 #30 March 8, 2004 QuoteIt's the government. You can get damn near anything if you fill out the right paperwork. Lol...I'm living proof of that. I've learned that if you push enough paper at them, they will eventually give up and give you anything you want...it makes for interesting ideas. I requested a BowFlex once and pushed enough paper at them that I have a nice excersize machine sitting in my spare bedroom...not a BowFlex, mind you cause it was too expensive, but a nice machine, no less...hehehe. And don't ask how I got it, what excuse I used or how long it took...just rest assured that all it takes is enough paper work, lol.
