Tough to watch Coach suffer.

Very tough to watch.

Never feel sorry for a man that owns a plane.

heartbreaking.

Well he says he has the money to rebuild + insurance should cover a lot of it if he had insurance. Looks like a dynamite place. I'm sure he will be up and running in no time.

 

[Ranching]

Hell be fine, tough to watch, but there are a lot of people worse off. I made home visits after Hurricane Dolly hit our area right before two a days in 2008. I saw real heart break in the families of my players that had no means to rebuild.

 

[MRV52]

Wow don't have any words.

 

[Fletch]

Jimmy has a vault of money. He'll rebuild and move on.

Build a house next to the freakin ocean and you're askin for it. Guess I'm not too broken up about his dream home and an ice machine that probably costs more than my Hyundai.

Yes. A rich person losing their home. Cry me a freaking river. Nevermind the poor folks who may never rebound from these catastrophes.

 

[Boyzmamacita]

Tough to have to rebuild at his age, but at least he has the means to do it.

 

[Ultra Warrior]

Yes. A rich person losing their home. Cry me a freaking river. Nevermind the poor folks who may never rebound from these catastrophes.

You don't have to minimize his loss, simply because he has money.

Had you paid attention, that's what he said....he said "don't worry about me, I have money to rebuild", worry about those in more need.

 

[SoBlue128]

Loss is loss and it hurts regardless of what is in your bank account

 

[AbeBeta]

You don't have to minimize his loss, simply because he has money.

Yet glorifying it is meaningful?

A rich person with great insurance took a loss.

Poor folks by the thousands lost everything.

Get a sense of perspective.

I was more responding to the folks who felt bad for him.

But go ahead and defend those folks who think his loss of a luxury home us meaningful compared to the permanently displaced.

Really difficult to watch, to be sure.

I drive for UBER as a means to supplement my retirement annuity. Monday night, I had. A lady in my car from Key West. She had evacuated last Thursday, and was staying at her mom's in Austin. Earlier in the day Monday, she had received a few pictures of her place from a neighbor who'd gone back home. Needless to say, she was distraught...sobbing the entire ride while telling me about it.

No, I didn't charge her for the ride.

This comment sucks.

 

[Sarge]

Stay strong Jimmy. You're alive and in good health. That's what truly matters.

Why can't you feel bad for both, have sympathy for both.
