sutherland got a reaction from sydneyboy in El Niño at The Met
I saw John Adam's "Nixon in China" and I enjoyed it; I know nothing about El Nino. I would have to define myself as (mostly) an old fuddy-duddy since my preference is bel canto rarities.

I heard Kraus sing in "The Daughter of the Regiment" with Miss Sutherland. He was amazing - nailing all 9 high-C in the first act aria. His voice also projected well up to the top balconies.

Hello Sydneyboy - how is opera attendance in Australia? Here in the USA sold-out operatic performances are very rare and all the major opera companies discuss audience building as a priority.

sutherland got a reaction from Rod Hagen in Long Term Care Insurance
I have been on my soap box regarding this for years. Let's look at two guys in adjoining rooms at our local nursing home. Guy #1 sacrificed for years to save money and leave if for his children -he has to deplete it all for nursing home costs. Guy #2 (who earned the same salary as Guy #1) squandered all his money recklessly and now has a net worth of $5 - taxpayer dollars pay for the nursing home. Is that a fair system?

You are correct. The average person spends 3 years in Assisted Living (which Medicaid does not cover) until going into a nursing home (which Medicaid DOES cover). As I age my plan is to give my money away to family until I am left with $400k to cover Assisted Living. Medicaid will kick in when I'm transitioning to a nursing home. An irrevocable trust is also something to look at since a nursing home cannot touch those assets. You just need a very trustworthy person to control the trust

I would love, love, love to meet TripleXTransman but he does not travel much. For a while he was on Chaturbate quite regularly

That's a steep price for an unrenovated townhouse in SOHO. That location on VanDam is an unremarkable block wedged between high rises and lacks the charm of the West Village townhouses to the North. There are multiple listings for renovated homes in that price range.

Yes, she moved to Maryland a few years ago to be close to her brother George and his family.

Opera has always been financially challenging, even in the times of Verdi and Puccini when composers still gave the audiences hummable tunes. The era of Haydn being supported by Prince Esterhazy and Wager supported by King Ludwig of Bavaria had some merit

sutherland got a reaction from Buff Daddy in Rounds NYC and Gaiety
Haha hah. I remember the punch bowl in the side room (no way I way going to drink that stuff). Back in the 1990's I had a job that required me to spend a couple of days in NYC, about 4 times per year. The Gaiety was always on my list of things to do. My first hire was Big Frank from Canada. He was a bodybuilder. Please send me a private message if you know that guy I'm talking about

For a while it was called "Bargain-tina" since the American dollar went very far there as their economy tanked

sutherland got a reaction from + augustus in CD rates on the rise
If I were over age 60 (which I am), getting 5% risk free on $1 million or more is fine with me. That is why I now have very little in equities, as my T-bills and CDs are giving me 5%. A young person can take the risk with equities, assuming it can be held for 10+ years and the return will be closer to 8 or 10%.

Thanks for reminding me of Antton Harri. I hired him a couple of times. A really nice guy and I liked his (mostly) hairless body.

Are there solutions to the 5-year lookback period? Let's say I withdraw my savings in cash and give it to my family in cash. There is no paper trail between me and the recipients. If questions are asked from Medicaid staff about the withdrawn money I respond "I went to Las Vegas and I lost it on gambling and hookers". How can they prove that is not true? and my family keeps the cash and I get Medicaid
