  1. You really can't make this shit up. Putin absolutely has to be laughing his ass off. Also the foxnews effort to try to 'no big deal' this one is pathetic - even by their pathetic standards.
  2. If you want the real Rome, go the first week in January. I’m serious. Three kings holiday. 90% of what’s going on is with locals. They have their largest annual sales event if you’re into shopping. It’s not like here where there’s always sales. Weather moderate. From Chicago so 50’s was just fine. Highly recommend. edit: and my family in Texas is so sick of baking for 8 months, 50’s is quite literally the perfect temp for them…I’m sure many of you are the same.
  3. Yeah that’s how many shitty ones grow. We don’t externally market to patients at all. We get contracts based on outcomes. Lower readmission rates etc. Those are tied to what’s best for patients the vast majority of times. There’s exceptions like the person with stage 4 cancer who’s on 8L supplemental O2 who is a very clear hospice patient but refuses to go hospice. We, with social workers, would encourage hospice and break the cycle of basically readmitting right away after any discharge - some would argue that’s worse for the patient but not many physicians, PE backed or otherwise, would agree.
  4. And I came here wishing Alex was dead. Such a vile cunt.
  5. I will say his actions have not been as bad as I would have guessed. It was a very low bar. But he seems to say a lot of batshit crazy shit but then back off when the trial balloon explodes like it usually does… yay?
  6. Makes sense. Remember Chicago style dogs have mustard. Not ketchup. But PE so…all bets off. And why don’t those assholes open them up in Chicago? Do these dipshits even TAM?
  7. Our funds take money from Europe. So that means we do ESG to the 9th degree. I also think that’s not the norm with PE. But again, the terrible ones will stand out. Fuck those people.
  8. More than fair, just had some recent arguments with Texans talking shit about Chicago and we skated around politics but those were not these Surly Texans...also, I'm pretty good at talking shit so they didn't have much to say after 10 minutes...and I owe much of my shit talking acumen to this place. So, thank you...
  9. LOL, PE absolutely does not ruin everything it touches. Christ. And I did laugh at the Chicago bit but let's be honest, Chicago has a lot less assholes than Texas. Take a look in the mirror at your clown ass state.
  10. Yep, I started my group myself and did one exit in Jan 2019 and another planned this summer. All these deals are NOT created equal. In many/most instances where the founder doc stays engaged and actually spends money on proper representation, on an exit, things are totally fine and patients are thankful their docs are generally in a better mood due to a better lifestyle / better pay. One huge caveat, we're the platform company meaning when we buy you're under me/us. If you are not you have little to no power when you sell. But the billing out of network etc is zero issue with us and nobody has ever told me/us how to practice. But just like anything else if you give the banks too much power they'll run anything over for the good ole dollar. Also, the platform company is 100% owned by the friendly physician. We're in 45 states and have 1500 doctors. If they really wanted to push me there's several states I could just say fuck off and take over the operation on my own - again, it won't happen because we have a great relationship but I'm here to tell you, many times those PE firms are acting like that because a shady/soft doctor is letting it happen. There's my 2 cents, flame away.
  11. It will only work if this admin causes them pain - in meaningful numbers. And that may actually be happening. Hammering anyone by saying shit does jack shit.
  12. NC. What a joke
  13. LOL, basically nothing happening in Chi. Some venezuelan gangbangers were arrested and that's about all I've heard. All talk and bullshit. Like Brisket said, just a 'look over there' tactic while they line their own pockets. Proud of Chicago.
  14. We are. I think BV and Porter ‘Circuit City’ Moser have to be kept around for now. All is well. Not really, but I’ve learned to care a lot less. Beat aggy. Being in the tourney as a dog is fun.
  15. That’s what matters most to you. What matters most to RT is to keep that cash flowing, whether he admits that or not.
