My late Father lived in a Retirement Community in a Condo I owned. His only income was Social Security.
He gets a call from the local Social Worker who tells him he can help him get additional Government Benefits if he qualifies.
The guy signs him up for Food Stamps. I find out when I was over there and saw the Letter he was supposed to sign and send back in.
The Benefit was for $15 Dollars a Month. Yes, $15.
After I got done laughing, I sent the Letter back telling them to cancel it. For the next year, he kept getting Letters telling him he was Eligible and asking why he isn’t using it.
The waste of money in Postage alone was ridiculous.
Unreal. My father passed away last December, I bet he could have qualified also for that $15 a month. I mean what can you spend that on? As my Father would have said on that, well I can get a RC cola and Moon Pie.
