Rumour has it $150,000 as a household without children involved. I'm only going by hearsay because nothing has been announced as yet.

I'm not asking for a handout before anyone has a go, just what I'm hearing.
can you keep the $40M you made buying back company stock and juicing the price?

asking for a CEO friend.

It's SO BAD, today I feel terrible because yesterday all the lawn service guys were out mowing and blowing leaves.... My car was covered with pollen. I went to open my car door last night, and I inhaled a Scarface sized mountain of yellow dust.... I've been sneezing all day today, with red watery eyes and a sore throat.... That's not awkward when I ran out to Publix a little bit ago.
Time to take apple cider 3 times a day. 1 table in 1 glass of water and drink slowly before you get a panic attack.

It's all relative to where I live outgoings/rent wise. $175,00 in the Bay Area really isn't how it is most other places. I wasn't showing off, it wasn't be who earned it.
no worries, if it makes you feel better I got offered more than that to work in SFO and turned it down.

just think it's infuriating that all of the people who profited from stock dividends being allowed to socialize their debt at the first sign of economic downturn.

Had the weirdest feeling like half an hour before he lost his job that he was going to lose his job.

Kind of wish we were somewhere else when he did, the rent here is stupid. It would be a lot less to worry about if we were back in VA.

Pakistan’s top hematologist and transplant surgeon says that the blood of recovered patients of COVID-19 – the mysterious respiratory illness caused by the novel coronavirus – could be used to slow the spread of the deadly contagion which has killed nearly 10,000 people and sickened tens of thousands others worldwide.

“The body of a COVID-19 patient creates antibodies to fight off the virus. These antibodies in the blood of a recovered patient could be used to boost the immunity of the newly infected people,” Dr Tahir Shamsi, the head of National Institute of Blood Diseases, told The Express Tribune in an interview.

In medical lexicon, this technique is called “passive immunisation” which was introduced in 1890, he added. This technique is used when there is a high risk of infection and insufficient time for the body to develop its own immune response, or to reduce the symptoms of ongoing or immunosuppressive diseases.
Splinty @Splinty is this shit true?

Yes. Has been used before. It was used during the Spanish flu. I have no idea the feasibility of setting up a large scale operation like that or whether it will be easier to use drugs than set up blood banking or whatever.
