I don't know that either of us misread it, I just had a question... the no job is an issue but the lifelong money handling problem is a bigger issue.

Well the original post just says the friend called to tell him that he got laid off. I wasn't certain if all the info came at that point or if the "friend" has been talking about it for years..

May I ask how you came by this information? It's not normally the type of info you share with others. I'll assume for they now they shared voluntarily. Why would they do that you might ask. Well they either want money from you or they have realized they dug a hole so deep they cannot get out...

It's a fine line.20 tubes of lip balm and half a dozen pairs of slippers aren't really the answer. I've had the best luck with gift cards for music, books or movies. It's even hard to find something like a house cleaner or lawn mower. In fact the best way to facilitate that idea is to give money...

I like the lawn care and maid service...or how about signing them up for a free delivery subscription, Target offers one and several other retailers do as well. I think it would be hard to know what type of tablet device they enjoy.

Pacergals nice ideas yet those items take up space and need some sort of care ..every item you mention involves a personal choice..ie chapstick and body lotion.

Amazon cards to buy something to read,or video stream,or music to listen too. I used to do this for a,cousin who had cancer..

We're from the same state and managed to find the perfect solution, for us anyway. Dairy and crop farmers, always thought we'd buy a 2nd home out West and use it to snowbird. Well things happen that's life. First we waited until the dairy part was done which took longer then expected. OK...

Don't mean to offend you but I don't understand what you wrote here. Do a little on line research about reverse mortgages.

In a previous thread you started you mention the need to get rid of your primary home due to all the maintenance it requires. Are you sure you are understanding what a reverse mortgage is?

Two FA recommended a reverse mortgage, wait is it April 1?

Because someone is using their website in a fraudulent manner..it's not from us is not good enough

Well boo on the state because their answer makes zero sense

Darn it it sounds like a scam attempt...it's always something...

Do you have an online account with the state. That's my state and they do require an unique code to log on to the site. If you do have an account you might try to log on directly from the website . You'd need to get a new code as they are time sensitive
