I gimp around like a 90 year old man now. - It sucks.


How am I ever supposed to pick up chicks like this? [:@] - Chicks dont want gimp's!

 

haha... make them feel bad... make up a sweet sob story like, a little girl was riding her bike and she didnt see a car coming so you ran out and saved her but got hit by the car

 

Honestly i would inflate what i thought was fair by 20% soi dont look over greedy and dont screw myself in the end. So i would personally go with either 700-750k. If you do win, whatever the amount, put it in the annuity or long term cd's you can stay with inflation and still have the money worth something when you need to use it.

 

Do you think I could get that? - That noted. - What if the guy doesn't have the money to pay the rest out of pocket? - Does it effect the driver? - Or does the insurrance company cover it?

 

Im sure if others have gotten $500k, asking for $700 is a good place to start. The judge can always knock it down to a reasonable amount. Better not lose what you could of had. Im not sure if the driver would then be responisble for the above amount of not, but im sure the issurance company or him would have to cover the differnece.

 

ask for $760,000 and a pizza with pickles and anchovies. That way, I can have 10k to pay off my TT and invest in repairs at the dealer. And then they'll give you $750k not even wondering about the money, simply asking about the choice of pizza.

Thats my vote.

 

IDK, this whole ordeal is just not fun. - It is really quite upsetting in the least, - Now I atleast now I'm not money hungry with my request to my lawyer for $400/$500k - I'll ask for $700k and settle for $500 haha.

 

Your finally catching on He should be the one you ask who you would collect from and a possible limit.

 

its never fun - but you lived. it happens all the time and people die.

I know someone who got mangled in a jeep hit by a wells fargo bank armored truck that blew a stop sign and the kid got 1.5 mill and claimed he was hurt, and came to one of our frat parties and was bragging about getting all the money and not even being injured.

If you're legitimately hurt, go after whatever you feel is needed to help you get by in life. Seriously though - dont waste it. I'd take a vacation for starters just in case you die before you can use the money - i mean it happens...

 

Yea start high and let him talk you down or ask for a settlement in the pretrial.
Was the driver totally at fault? How did it affect your work. Your Married Life or relationship. Mental stress and pain and suffering ect ect. How long off work. If you cant work.... How much could of you made in the future years, what time to retire ect ect ect. Got kids ? did they suffer because dad was hurt? see where Im comming from ... Id go for more close to 900 k
