Apparently he has a really big ringadingdong, as an aside.

Anyone else remember before the ACA when it was 18 and some insurances would let you stay on an additional 4 years if you were in college? That was a driving factor in me going to college when I wasn’t ready and burning the fuck out. At least it was a public school and I didn’t have any debt.

right before the ACA you could stay on til you were 24 i think through cobra if you were in college in my state. it was pretty nice since i decided to start using the insurance for realsies right before my 18th birthday, which was more expensive than college funnily enough.
- Oh yeah, cobra was a nightmare, I was on that for a few months and I think it was something like $500/month? Which was absolutely bonkers in mid 00s dollars. Staying on the insurance while in college without paying for cobra was a perk that my dad’s job offered, so it was cheaper for me to be in college than not if I wanted healthcare.
- When I was in college, the university provided Healthcare. Sure we had to go to the student health center but the doctors were professors in the med school.
I remember being rejected by a lot of the insurers while i was in college because i had taken an anxiety med

Lol, no. He has wealth and fame. It's not a meeting of minds. It's loneliness.

The older he gets, the more the distance will be between them, with each new young woman.

For some men, that's their ultimate fantasy. But only if they never see the partner as an equal or anything more than a possession or toy to use.

Eventually, hell be less desirable, but still wealthy, and we'll have an Anna Nicole Smith situation.

However, nobody seems to be being hurt at the moment..it's all consensual and everyone goes in eyes open. It's just sad.

A girlfriend half my age sounds awesome at first, but I can't imagine what we would talk about. Hard to see such a relationship being stable. (At least for me)
- I hope you're at least over 40! The generally accepted healthy maximum age gap is half the age, plus 7. That's not scientific, but what most people find acceptable in others.
  In the case of Leo, it's not just the age gap but the power imbalance due to his wealth. That imbalance is partly why so many celebrities sate other celebrities. The other is PR and also their schedules. It would be difficult to maintain a regular job and have a relationship with someone who travels for work, months at a time. It's similar to military families, now that I think about it.
- I'm 32 and I know of an 18 y/o girl who had a crush on me. We had plenty to talk about and had a similar sense of humour.
  But for me, I wouldn't be comfortable entering into a relationship with a girl 14 years younger than me. It just doesn't sit right with me and I feel like it would be frowned upon.
- How is that awesome even at first?
- They probably talk about how he wants to fuck her and she wants to ride around on his yacht.
No, in Bobbi Brown's book she talks about having sex with him before he got really famous, and while he was not very good at it, she said it was colossal, and she was engaged to Tommy Lee.
- Wow, what a trustworthy source, not attention seeking at all.

- At first, the censorship in that article annoyed me. But after thinking about it, it's hilarious that people can write and publish an article entirely about somebody's penis, yet they still see the need to censor words like "dick" and "sexual." As if somebody who chooses to read about someone's penis is going to be offended by such words, or the article writer has to pRoTeCt tHe cHiLdReN somehow (???)
  I just can't get over how stupid our modern dystopia is.
- sounds like she had a Lars Von Trier like "confusingly large" moment

if you love it put a ringadingdong on it.

:( Why'd you do that, Leo? I was gonna eat that cake... I don't care how much you love chocolate, that was inappropriate and impolite!
- They did it the other day to my fancy new bbq tongs. And before that it was a pate of grated cheese.

I don't get it... car insurance? Medical insurance?

What does that have to do with liking younger girls? (Assuming that's the connection to Leo)

I've been told that he dates young women, then drops them when they reach a certain age.
- Leo keeping it fresh
Medical insurance. As a young person, you can be covered by and use your parents' insurance until you hit 26.
You can also be used by Leo until you hit 26, since that's too old for him. Allegedly.
- For being covered by your parents' insurance, 26 sounds surprisingly old. I would've expected 18
- Did they raise the age at some point in the last couple decades? I had to enroll in community college longer to keep mine when I couldn't find a job that offered coverage and that was when I was only like 19 or 20.

In Germany medical family insurance ends with turning 25 unless you were insured otherwise for some time in between for example by serving in the Armed Forces

I mean if you’re a dependent at age of 26 without a medical diagnosed illness. Then maybe the insurance cutoff isn’t problem. I have 2 adult children in mid 20’s. They moved out at age 18 and 19 without my support. They have their own insurance and income. It is possible.

You're right, the problem is more than the cutoff, its that medical insurance is tied to employment. Say someone loses their job due to no fault of their own; company is downsizing, work is automated, the CEO buys into the AI hype to replace workers, or theres unforseen funding cuts to the organization. Then you're out of a job and don't have health insurance. Maybe your entire industry isn't hiring anymore, and the local coffee shop that's hiring doesn't offer any benefits. Of course, they won't hire you anyways because why would they want someone with an advanced degree when they expect you'll just leave as soon as you find something better. Or you need 3 years prior experience as a barista before being considered.
- They need to offer lower cost personal health insurance. That is what Obama Care did but it penalized people without insurance. That part was removed later down the road. The issue is that not enough people signed up. The Gov. was basically trying to force people into signing up and that doesn’t work. Why sign up if you already have health insurance. People stayed at their jobs due to 2008 crash.
Ehhh as someone who has a chronic illness (with a nice $20k/month prescription if you don't have insurance), the issue is if your health is so bad that you can't work 40 hrs a week reliably...that's when you need insurance the most but then you get dumped.
I managed it but boy it was scary.
Shhh. You’ll get downvoted for being remotely successful
- Damn, now I have to become homeless just to get ⬆️
