    Guess he should have been doing that. And maybe she should have been somewhat aware of their financial situation. It sounds like your mom is a product of her own poor decisions.

        Well, at least until legislation like this comes to where she’s at, at least. Then the free ride will be over.

          It’s not a “free” ride, it’s her life savings
