I have a high tone hearing loss and have to read lips alot. Hearing aids are around $5000 or more and I cannot afford them. Insurance does not cover them either. Does anyone have any real suggestions? I am already working 60+ hours a week so another job is not an option. Thankyou.

You don't say how old you are. If you are a veteran of the US armed forces, you may have veteran's benefits that will pay for them. Many audiologists know of the resources available to you in your area. Check with them. Some HMOs will provide them if you are elderly.

The fact that we are living and breathing and able to do all these things. The fact that we are not rocks and some divine coincidence made use who we are instead of some inorganic atom. The fact we can give things worth. We can categorise. Its all beautiful, the sight, the sound, the feel, the emotion, the taste. Even pain. We can feel that not many other things can. Pain may be painful, but we can feel it just as we can feel happy. Its amazing really that out of all of this we can do these things. Although it seems to suck sometimes its still wonderful. random fact: if you shoot a rabbit, it doesnt know why it feels pain, it doesn't register that there is an explanation, it just knows it feels pain and as a reaction will run away, even if its dying. Shoot a human (even if they did not know what a gun was) it would realise its something launched, have some sort or knowledge of what to do and so on. I dont think this was relevant but its written now... But if youre looking for one reason it would definitely be pie.
