Yesterday morning I-70 was closed at Georgetown and over Vail Pass but we had nothing. Big news of the day was when I picked up the mail, there was one letter that looked rain soaked and crinkled. When I opened it, it was the results of Lori’s appeal to the denial on her surgery. For months we’ve been appealing Blue Cross’s denial of her surgery which even with the surgeon not charging her, would have still cost us another $30,000. Luckily the independent review board concluded that her surgery was necessary and overturned Blue Cross’s denial and they now have to pay, whoo hoo! This is huge news. The original estimate of cost was $144,000! We’re happy to have this one behind us.
A few weeks ago I told you how Jagger wrote a program for his company that gathers all this financial information that Bloomberg sends out to all the investment banks every morning when the market opens, and charges all the companies $100,000 a terminal or computer. Well, get this. Bloomberg emailed Jag asking for his help saying the see he found a way to backdoor the program and was hoping he’d show them how he did it so they could fix it so no one else could do it! He gave the email to his boss who told him to ignore it. To be clear, Jag didn’t hack their system or anything, what he did was write his own algorithm to gather the same public information that Bloomberg charges $100k for, for free. Pretty impressive that you have a company that is one of the leading financial companies in the World, asking Jagger for help with one of their mainstays that brings in millions of dollars a day! I told him he’ll probably get a job offer from them next, ha.
Ty works again today as he picked up a shift. You should see him. He’s gained a ton of muscle and is super strong. He lifted 32,000 pounds in his workout yesterday according to his app. His arms and traps and muscles are like steel and he’s getting really chiseled. Good for him.
We have the cleaners coming today so time to get to the gym. Have a great day, be well and God Bless.
