I’m sorry to have ti break it to you like this. But a public forum reduces the risk of you making a scene 😂

My apologies. I’ll be more careful. But I suppose it’s safe to say that he was either lying about his age in 2016, or now, or both then and now

It’s been my experience that trying to claim piece of any settlement is futile. A lot of effort, a lot of waiting, not much return in effort or time

Well, I’ve not seen your ad, but that comment tells me everything about why I wouldn’t even consider you a contender - arrogance and smugness. For the record, when you’re 30, you probably won’t have a fraction of what I had at that age. And, with an attitude like that, you have no chance of accumulating what I have now. Open your eyes, open your ears - and listen to those who can help you refine your brand. The “golden rule” is relevant here young man - “He who has the gold makes the rules”. Edited to ad: is this you? So you want us to believe that you are 23 and that you’ve been on RM since [redacted] 2016?

Very true. But this is also someone with 30 5⭐ reviews on RM. Those dots don’t connect and I’m wondering if there’s perhaps more to the story as Atlas is being pilloried in absentia I’m a relative newbie and I’m sure that someone can fabricate 5⭐ reviews(Sunny_Wave as an example). But combined with the OP’s original experience with this guy, it’s not my first “go to” conclusion. @Handsome_btt, are you going to post a bad review on RM? FTR, I always offer payment up front and I’ve never been burned. If someone is going to rob me, that’s on them. But to extend a hand of trust to remove all doubt that I have no ill intent - well, that’s my preferred approach.

Has he ghosted you? Does he have an explanation?

I agree! History is full of revolutions fought over such exploitation edited to add: even is they accede to the offer, it is exploitation because their agreement may be provoked by the desperation of their situation.

Personally, I view this as disrespectful to solicit working men for sex. My view is that there’s a number of inexpensive ways they could put themselves out there if that’s something they wanted to do.

It occurred to me - after reading these comments - that when I was assisting with a Capital Campaign for my college fraternity, the active chapter was begging to do away with the gang shower setup wanting private stalls instead. The 50 years old shower was sufficient in my day. With 20/20 hindsight, we now know that 20% of the members were gay, but no one walked around with “Big John” at attention and nothing inappropriate happened (at least in the public showers) So while guys today are more tolerant, I still wonder if there’s an inherent homophobia or fear of homophobia embedded in their modesty.

I recommend reaching out to Jake Bolton. He's out of town right now, but may be available on your timeframe.

You sound like my ex-wives! 🤣

I suppose it’s all about timing. If I decide to cancel insurance tomorrow and the disaster happens next week, then I spend a decade “earning back the loss” by not paying premium. Many businesses go through the complicated task of self insuring health benefits or joining insurance pools for loss share on fixed assets. Typically, the breakeven is about 3 yrs. That’s not particularly risky. But I’m guessing a consumer break even on home insurance would be forever. Right now, the cost of my home insurance is about 1/2% of the value of my home (less land)…my coastal home(at 20’ elevation), the cost is 2% of the value of my home (less land). I won’t be here long enough to enjoy that breakeven (which isn’t indexed for inflation).

Looking for a daddy as a couple? Is that polyamory? And ditto what @FrankR says, it’s about chemistry and connection. It doesn’t just happen in a meetup

You know, that’s a very good point. In my younger days, due to body image concerns, was modest to a point of prudishness. But I did get over it in my 20’s when I came to understand that my endowment was at least above average. Today, I’m not tall and my hair is thinning, but no one would doubt my self confidence.

An interesting conversation yesterday with a much younger friend (mid 20’s)…a former top porn star before he quit the business. He’s A very very attractive Twink. He said older men are much more into nudity than younger men. I sleep nude, he doesn’t. I’m comfortable at a nude beach, he isn’t. I don’t have a problem skinny dipping (public or private), he does. (To be fair, we were at Hanlan’s and many people obviously recognized him and gawked and not just at his impressive nudity) He doesn’t feel unusual in his beliefs relative to peers and suggests that the difference is more age or generational. while many of us here are middle aged (if that means some of us are planning on living to 120 or 150 😂), I’d be interested in opinions on this - hoping to hear from younger guys too.

They have over 1,500 locations. They’re closing 10%. Areas change and demographics shift. I wonder how many they opened. Letting some close as areas change and leases expire is business as usual in my opinion.

It’s not unusual at all….but it’s also rare that the building doesn’t provide any incremental value at all, That is, if it’s habitable and not condemned. As stated, the land being worth more than the building “tips” at 51% land, 49% building. So, an uninsured loss would be 49% of value in that case. I believe the maximum residential limits for federal flood insurance are $250K for structure and $100K for contents. So, in a coastal area, “the land exceeding the building” is the norm and not the exception. But, people who go bare AND have the money won’t care

And yet, I have well over a million miles with delta and just made diamond medallion using my Delta Amex for purchases I would have made anyway (I pay it off weekly as a check on my spending)

I’m learning something new

New profile, no reviews I think he will figure it out

Sharing a kids picture in this context was off the charts b@t$h!t crazy. It’s good it put your antenna up to something being awry

Here, ODs can still occur on electronic payments. In addition, mobile banking payments are often converted to paper checks and post when the clear creating potential overdrafts

Yes, they may be paying less interest in total, but they may also make even more money off the folks who forget to transfer money to cover checks and accrue overdraft fees.

Surely there’s another one by that name other than the one in Ohio that I have found to be quite bleak?
