Hi all! I am not insurance currently but looking to get back into it. I’m more interested in the underwriting part. My background is 10 years writing commercial, personal, and life. There are virtually 0 in person opportunities in my small town so I’m looking into remote. Any leads on an entry level underwriter position? I’m guessing I would be entry level. I have experience risk rating/loan structuring in the bank world and am about to finish with my finance degree

My boy will be 8 months in a couple weeks. When he gets excited he sucks in his voice and sometimes lets out, like outwardly, a coo. Other than crying and the occasional coo, his sounds are all suck in sounds. He doesn’t chit chat or giggle outwardly like my daughter did. Meeting every other developmental aspect and he is a happy fella. A little serious, but happy and smiles. It just seems like every time he opens his mouth to speak he does that exciting sucking in squeal. Anyone else have experience with this?? The only thing I get when I google is stridor and that’s not it, I don’t think. Will bring it up at next dr appt, just haven’t before because we were dealing with gas/formula issues that we finally got straight. Onto the next concern lol

Very long story short, I am caring for my mother who was just put on hospice for her COPD after an extremely stressful 6 months of moving her from hospital to nursing home, back home, assisted living, back to the nursing home, and then back home all because she is never happy anywhere. She continues to smoke heavily and it is quite clear that is the only thing that has brought her any happiness. She has never had hobbies, doesn’t enjoy ANYTHING (puzzles, new tv shows, shopping, nothing). Every move I would buy her a new batch of nice practical goodies and she literally would give it all away. She has had a long tough life and I understand that but she was a tough mom to me. She has always been either extremely hot or cold with me and honestly I was terrified of her but still respected her as a hard working woman. Now as a mom though, I don’t understand her parenting at all and I hold a lot of resentment. Here we are, her dying because of something she has chosen over me my entire life, cigarettes. This whole ordeal began 2 days after I had my second baby and then two weeks later I was hospitalized for a week. It has been extremely stressful as I’m her primary caregiver along with working full time, in college, having my own family to manage. I feel immense relief that hospice stepped in but I can’t let go of the resentment. Resentment that cigarettes have always been her main priority and that they are the reason she is dying. Resentment that she expects me to drop everything I have going on to tend to her. Resentment that she had a wasted life. My dad passed 3 years ago so I moved her to be closer to me. I hoped she would become more involved but nope. It’s tough, and I just want to know I’m not the only caregiver with these complicated feelings of love for my mother but also burdensome resentment.

Hello, my husband and his two brothers own free and clear a vacation property that is to stay in the family. We and one brother have kids and the other brother will eventually have kids and are thinking of how to best set this up. Would we do a trust? Beneficiaries are the spouses and their children? Then when one of the “admins” (my husband and brothers) passed, one of the beneficiaries for that third become the new admin for that third? This would be done to reduce confusion on ownership in the future with all our kids. Thanks!!
