Pakled posted:I don't know much about the Susan G Komen foundation in particular other than that's what people seem to say about it but "raising awareness" is actually a pretty good tool to fight breast cancer. Universal screening for breast cancer early is ultimately cheaper than allowing the cancer to develop and only treating advanced cases, and if society didn't hammer it in then fewer people would participate. Same thing with pap smears, colonoscopies, etc. That's not true at all, we've long past "awareness" and gone into paranoia about breast cancer. Newer recommendations push screening out later, and dispose with manual checks entirely: http://www.cnn.com/2015/10/20/health/new-acs-breast-cancer-screening-guidelines/

Jeb! Repetition posted:Well again no, because only 47% of of people under 24 are more likely to buy something advertised that way, whereas way more than 47% believe in equality. And I'm just going out on a limb here, but maybe it's because they realize the appeals are opportunistic and meaningless, like this thread is about. In which Jeb!

I feel fine doubling down on the notion that, if you can't handle a $500 expense, it's probably because you don't make enough money instead of a lack of self-flagellation on the altar of John C. Bogle (if you'll notice, the post that started this tangent was regarding Morgan Stanley, who I'm pretty sure is going to "educate" you into assuming as much debt as possible instead of how to balance a checkbook)

I read the article and all I saw was "save more" aka "give us more money to charge a fee on", not "be less materialistic" or "here's a cheap way to fix your fridge" - and anybody that can't read between the lines on why Morgan Stanley doesn't talk about that latter part of financial education (being frugal) is a maroon call to action has issued a correction as of 22:03 on Mar 20, 2017 |
