Might be a solid strategy to combat debt collection agencies. They buy overdue debt at steep discounts and then harass people and collect on some portion, enough to make a profit overall. Dealing with sovcits probably has negative expected value vs whatever debt they are trying to collect.
Can you imagine sovcits unintentionally doing societal good by sovciting debt collection agencies? The mind boggles.
I assume hard cases here refer to people who aren’t responsive or put ups fight?
I’d imagine a motivated sovcit could be way more of a pain because they cause active headaches with frivolous filings and wasting time vs just not paying. Though maybe I’m giving them too much credit or debt collectors too little credit.
I was mostly musing on the schadenfreude of sovcits unleashed upon debt collectors. Your advice (or probably anything other than pretending to be a sovcit) is almost certainly better for someone actually going through debt collections.
Though I think (anyone feel free to jump in if I’ve got it wrong) that the coffee limits are not 10% non-coffee matter by weight but rather 10% of beans demonstrating insect damage/infestation/mold. This is not exactly reassuring, but it’s almost certainly far less insects than 10% of your coffee bag’s weight being ground up buggies. You can read about the FDA’s coffee analysis process which is interesting, if somewhat opaque.
I’m pretty sure all insect fragments, rodent droppings, and the like all vanish as soon as they cross the EU border in accordance with food safety regulations. /s
I did start reading into said EU regulations a bit, but I won’t ruin your day.
I enjoyed the show as a kid and only found out about the comic later as an adult. It’s probably why the show sticks with me and I don’t remember much about the comic.

My high school had a mandatory senior class that taught things like budgeting, investing, filing (very simple) taxes, and balancing a check book. It also required you to do some form of community service. The investing portion was bad as it was basically stock picking with fun money.
It’s hard to say how much the class impacted me as I don’t have a control, and I then proceeded through four years of college not really exercising those skills. I suspect it’s not a silver bullet, but still a positive inclusion in the curriculum.
$120k/yr is a very healthy retirement after you have paid off assets and lower expenses. Yes it’s enough, unless you’re unlucky with health issues which would be a problem if you were at $200k/yr as well.
