Samuel Joseph Wurzelbacher, better known as “Joe the Plumber,” passed away from pancreatic cancer this week. For those too old to remember him, Wurzelbacher, 49, became a minor political celebrity during the 2008 presidential race when he confronted Barack Obama, surely the most coddled candidate until that time, about his far-left economics.

Pancreatic cancer seems far more common lately.

Damn 49.

Last month I went to a funeral for a 44 year old (cancer). Hits pretty close.

Not sure if its that or mid life crisis but I feel like getting my 911 sooner than later. Maybe make the kids pay their own college.

Probably jabbed.

My next door neighbor passed away last month from turbo brain cancer. I spoke to his widow yesterday. It all went down within three months.

Guy who lives around the block from me, 50’s, two teenage kids, died suddenly a few weeks back.

It will be the best damn thing you ever did for them,..
My brother a bigshot in his inner world, harassed and bugged me to tell my daughters to ask Uncle So in So, write them a letter of recommendation to get them in a big University. I told my daughters to work a shitty job for a few years, until they figured out what they wanted to do. Then go to an off campus university. They even had grants that were still good.. One just got her masters, and the other got her associates in computer science and both work in the field. Had I listened to my brother, they would have gotten into "Criminal Justice" which is just glorified way of saying over paid Prison guards. Or end up teachers in some Liberal shit hole. My brother sent his kids to a University and came out like you would expect them to in recent times. Blue hair and conniption fits and all. .

I'm just afraid I am making their lives too soft. We have that eastern european mentality of doing everything for our kids and I keep telling the wife it won't serve their interests in the future to come. She wants to pay for their college. I'd rather have them be entrepreneurs or run their own trades. We have alot of people in the social circle that have sent their kids out to fancy universities for worthless degrees. As it is my kids will be inheriting at least a paid off house each. Its way more than I ever got.

My son's high school friend just started having uncontrollable seizures with zero symptoms before; I believe he's jabbed. This has upended his and his family's life because now he has to be on medication and can't drive for potentially the rest of his life.

I used to believe that but I don't think it's bad to help your kids in this day and age given how expensive everything is. Back in the day, college was a fraction of the cost. The old, "wise" adage of kicking your kids out at 18 isn't the same today IMO.

Well I'm sure I would have been involved financially had they gone the traditional Major University lifelong debt entrapment that is classically pushed on them. As our Universities are proving me right in this point, you'll probably produced a bigger educated idiot if you send your kid to a University.
They and the parent that wants to help them get a start, would do better to get a Bachelors locally and earn as much grants and scholarships as you can.
My daughter's out of pocket cost per semester was under $3K. She worked week ends and some week nights, and paid most of it herself.
In fact I was so shocked just how little time my daughters actually spent at the campus or attending classes. I can only wonder what they would have been getting into in some blue state at a Blue University campus all the rest of their time. All the time in the world to brainwash them to hate their parents and Thanksgiving.
