Seeking feedback on GAP insurance. I had a family member who purchased a car in June or July. They were in an accident last week and it sounds like the car will be declared a total loss. Never dealt with this before, so wanted to ask if anyone has ever had an instance where the insurance didn't cover the outstanding balance of the loan and the insured then owed money? Car was $35k, $7k down, finance $28k. Gap insurance is through lender, not auto insurer.

Junior associate here, should I ask for more money if my firm is about 10-15 percent less hours but about 30 percent less pay? The gap will never be closed to the top pay scale at my firm but when I decided to come to this firm the pay difference was about 15 percent and not 30. Would appreciate any thoughts on how to go about bringing this up without pissing people off because I love the firm and do not want to leave

After being broken up now for 14 months - I think I still love my ex. We were together 6 years, and never fought. I thought I would spend the rest of my life with him. I don’t know why I can’t move on. It’s my birthday weekend and I have plans all weekend, but can’t stop thinking about this. I’ve been out with lots of great guys, but I keep holding on that maybe… one day we will be together again.
