Yep, taught me a lot though. If you don't work for it you don't deserve it. Thats why I'm so happy my dad finally is retiring. He retired about 10 years ago but couldn't stand it and went back to work. He made some bad investments (he didn't Merill Lynch did) and lost almost all of his life savings. He filed a claim with the VA over hearing loss he suffered while in the service a year ago. They called him Thursday and said they was giving him 100% dissability. He about had a heartattack when they told him that. He said he figured getting maybe 15% dissability. They told him they back paid him from the day he filed his claim and had already deposited the money in his account. I'm tickled for my father, he has worked hard all his life and has never asked for help or took any hand outs.
