Yeah after 25 years of zero dentist visits I have my first toothache this week. I’ll never financially recover from this.

The spot price for gold at the moment today 2024/3/4 is about $66 USD a gram. If anybody reading this is doing or has been doing drugs, remember if you are paying around 65 a gram (Average Cocaine and Heroin pricing) you are essentially throwing gold in the trash with every hit. I ask that those who think current drug policy is effective think of this fact, drugs are literally worth their weight in gold despite being illegal.

Damn, I went 10 without going. Had to suddenly go because a molar started crumbling. 3 years, 4 crowns and 2 new fillings later, Im doing a bit better now…

Oof, yeah… A cleaning and exam is $100-300 in the US. A root canal is $600-1600. Crowns are $1100-1700.

It’s worth it to hit up the dentist at least every few years… Ideally 1-2 times a year.

Insurance is bullshit, though. It’s a racket that’s evolved only to favor the insurance companies. My dentist literally told me this.

Get insurance if you know you’ve got bad teeth, or a problem, though!

For the love of god, don’t let it get worse. Had to wait months and 2 rounds of antibiotics to get mine removed after it got infected.

Worse pain I experienced, it just never eases up till your medicated.

Dude this is literally me. As soon as I finished med school and started residency I got LASIK. A year after that I got Invisalign. And resident physicians don’t make a lot montey but it was enough to change my looks.

With how dental insurance is done in the US, it’s almost the same regardless if you have insurance or not.

If I won the lottery, no one currently in my life would ever see or hear from me again.

If I won the lottery, I’d try not to really change much about my lifestyle. I’d work the same job, drive the same car. I’d pay my house off, but otherwise treat the lottery money as retirement and/or an emergency fund and earn some extra money off the interest (interest alone off a few million sitting in a money market account might be decent). Otherwise, I’d try to act like nothing happened, just live a relatively comfortable life, but still work, albeit with less stress.

There are rare instances where people don’t hate and despise their job and bosses. Rare, but in your case, it does happen. For the vast majority of us we’d afford nutritious food, get in to see a medical professional, and afford a home…while loud-quitting and telling the boss to fuck himself.
