FYI the answer to that is "it counts towards my deductible", so it means once I spend $2,700 on medical bills in 2020, therapy included, then after that it's free! :thumbsup:

One thing I've learned from this week's news is criminals really like to record other criminals.

Good words from Charles Barkley.

Kobe was an extremely complicated man but also a sports legend. I wish his wife and surviving children all the best.

Kobe was 100% the best player in the NBA in the era between Jordan and Lebron. He's 4th all-time in career points.
