  1. 401k's IRA's and retirement

    DieselBurps posted a topic in Travel

    Hello, So have started to aggressively pay off my students loans and am now thinking about my next steps as far as what I should do about investments and retirement accounts. The agency I am with...

  2. 401k's IRA's and retirement

    DieselBurps replied to DieselBurps's topic in Travel

    Thanks Ned, I was hoping you would comment since I have seen you mention retirement accounts passingly before. I think I get what you are saying that I should do a traditional IRA over a Roth and...

    Thanks for the responses so far. lig, I am going to take the company 401k and their match. Like you said it's better than doing nothing. Guy in Babyland, Roth would make sense I think since I am...

  4. Cali travel pay

    DieselBurps replied to nur18's topic in Travel

    Argo, how are you not dealing with housing?? The reason I ask is thought I remember you saying somewhere that you were in an RV? But I could be mistaking you with someone else? I am doing the RV...

  7. States that are friendly to travelers who want a lunch break

    DieselBurps replied to DieselBurps's topic in Travel

    Hey Ned, it's a 13 week contract, 4 weeks done so far. I can relate when you said " it's a shame what we do to ourselves". I ask to take a measly 30 min. lunch break in a stressful, overworked, and...

  8. States that are friendly to travelers who want a lunch break

    DieselBurps replied to DieselBurps's topic in Travel

    I agree with this, but I am asking my coworkers whom I have to spend 40 hours with every week. I don't feel I should have to ask, and I think it sounds stupid asking "hey mind if I take my 30 min....

    DieselBurps replied to DieselBurps's topic in Travel

    DieselBurps replied to oncrn86's topic in Travel

    I have been with trustaff for over a year and they have been great to me as far as I know. No complaints. I am thinking about trying Fastaff though for a few contracts. That will give me more to...

    DieselBurps posted a topic in Travel

    Hello everyone, I have a question regarding the prophecy exam. Basically how hard is this test? I plan to do some review but reading up on the test, I find that it is timed. I am a particularly slow...

  15. Health Care is a right

    DieselBurps replied to headsup's topic in Activism, Healthcare

    So? I never said people with insurance will never die. You seem very delusional because no where in my posts have I indicated anything close. I just stated that based on current research, your chances...

  16. Health Care is a right

    DieselBurps replied to headsup's topic in Activism, Healthcare

    It would also show how immoral you are. At least as nurse. You certainly can not say you are a patient advocate since the only thing you seem to be advocating is your checkbook. Gee, did not know...

  18. Health Care is a right

    DieselBurps replied to headsup's topic in Activism, Healthcare
