viator

Read a random definition: Doctor of Law

A quick definition of viator:

A viator is someone who can have two meanings. Firstly, it can refer to an apparitor, which is a person who serves legal documents or carries out official duties. Secondly, it can refer to someone who is very sick and has a life insurance policy. This person can sell their policy to someone else for a lump sum of money.

A more thorough explanation:

Term: Viator
Definition: A viator is someone who is either an apparitor or a terminally/chronically ill life-insurance policyholder who sells their policy to a third party for a lump-sum payment that is a percentage of the policy's face value.
Examples:
  • John works as a viator for the court, serving legal documents to people.
  • Mary is a viator who has been diagnosed with a terminal illness. She decides to sell her life-insurance policy to a third party for a lump-sum payment.
The first example illustrates the definition of viator as an apparitor. An apparitor is someone who serves legal documents to people, and John is described as a viator who does this for the court. The second example illustrates the definition of viator as a terminally/chronically ill life-insurance policyholder who sells their policy to a third party for a lump-sum payment. Mary is described as a viator who has been diagnosed with a terminal illness and decides to sell her life-insurance policy for a lump-sum payment.

Nah, the fucked up thing about therapists is they try and make you think your parents are your enemy 99% of the time and really they should be telling you that your parents have almost no effect on the rest of your life. If they can get you to keep focusing on your parents they can keep making money.

Technically they want 3 to be completely fair to the powers that be, so I'm really trying to push out to 3

I would say yeah, they're helpful. But they can verge on unproductive and stress-inducing if you watch enough of them (especially the application read-through ones)
