Hey guys, so the story goes there are people in our inner circle who believe staying on disability is immoral. We discuss the situation and would like some of your thoughts on it. Knowing a person who has had a history of suicidal ideations and hospitalizations would it make sense to go full time, lose your disability and not receive any benefits? One of the meds cost 1200 dollars a year. We share our thoughts along with a therapist opinion. Also we discuss some major disappointment after Travis's fourth failed attempt in passing the CompTIA A Plus Certification after studying for it the past two years. We also discuss our failures of being creative individuals and unable to make a true income from it.
