Read up on the Defense Base Act.

Get additional insurance if you can.

Look into establishing an LLC and read up on the tax implications of being a 1099 employee.

Get a good accountant or risk cutting your pay in half with taxes.

Does this apply to tech/med folks too? Or just tactical and security? I cannot confirm on the tech / med side but it would not surprise me. Duly noted. That being said, I can dam near always get a job as a medic. My fire dept has told us already I expect lay offs due to budget cuts and massive city...

Read this from SOCNET -- it is focused more on PSD but is still relevant -- http://www.socnet.com/showthread.php?t=52042.

Bad idea. If your motivation is financial I would opine that you will make more money in the next 20 years keeping your current job than you would giving it up, doing a tour as a contractor, then coming back and trying to find a new job. These days I don't recommend that anyone who has a good steady...

Having observed Crossfit for approximately one month I don't see much difference between it and when my Drill Instructors at Parris Island thrashed our platoon.

For me it's the platform not the round. There are better guns, my Sig is an outstanding pistol for what it is. I have enjoyed even less well made pistols...Just feel incomplete w/o a 1911. Understood. For most of us, unless the firearm has serious reliability or accuracy issues, only a really good ...

Springfield Armory "loaded" model would be my choice of 1911.

The holiday season is upon us and already the unrealistic expectations and guilt trips are pouring in. I want a holiday focused on immediate family only vice two months focused on reassembling people who don't maintain contact throughout the year for a reason and then wondering why a bunch of dysfun...

Thank you to Darth for organizing this event. I stayed like 45 minutes before my three year old lost her mind and we had to depart. For the next one we need to (myself included) post a bit more details in the thread. I found out this afternoon that another member who wanted to attend was also playin...

This is funny. Why dwell on rhabdo when so much else is wrong and easier to make fun of? -Stan http://sexyasfuck.org/2013/09/26/the-rhabdo-post/ The Rhabdo Post Posted by sexyasfuck Wow, what a week it has been for Rhabdo and Crossfit.

In a pre-deployment context of a conventional unit I want Soldiers training for what they are most likely to do -- land navigation, pull triggers, treat casualties, talk on the radio, maintain equipment, tactics etc. Master those then we can talk about training for minority situations that can be ad...

I hope it lasts as long as possible and the U.S. pops some popcorn and watches while our enemies kill each other. Assad showed the world (again) that using WMDs doesn't have to be the last act of a desperate man. One has to presume that if he does go down, it will be accompanied by far more clouds ...

I am an isolationist. Wars of necessity only please.
