a licensed real estate agent who doesn’t know computer skills?
I guess she is burned out on "hope & change".....................
new tag line.
Didn’t someone prove that she sold some real estate and had about $50K. This lady is nothing more than a leech and con artist.
“Representative Nick Thompson’s wife, Chene, owns the home and is allowing Henrietta to live there until it sells.”
Somehow this reporter failed to mention that the Thompsons are REPUBLICANS. It just doesn’t fit the msm template that Republicans are cold-hearted, stingy SOBs, while the Democrats talk about loving the Pooooor but only spend taxpayer money on them when they can buy votes for their re-election.
Skill is not necessary if you are from the privileged class. Lowly white people will do the actual work.
And an annual vacation to a place of her choice.
She also apparently didn’t know how to make mortgage payments in 2002.

Henrietta, a bit of advice for you.
Trust in God, not 0bama.
I saw a FR thread showing Henrietta or her son’s ownership of a undeveloped lot in the area of Fort Myers. She had already sold one or more of the adjacent lots. She may honestly be able to claim she has no home at this time, but I don’t think she can say didn’t buy property after the sale of her NY home. I wish the reporter would ask if Henrietta or Henrietta’s son owns land in Florida.
Yes, I read it here too. She just doesn’t know how to manage money and she and her son went broke; now hoping to cash in on what they think is free money.
Now cleaning off my computer screen and keyboard!!
or now hoping to cash in on her irresponsibility? I should have been so lucky when I made bad financial mistakes.
A big part of the problem is that out-of-control government regulation has made many of the self-help entrepreneurial routes illegal or blocked by government-protected union contracts. Fifty years ago, this woman could have set up a home-based business preparing meals to deliver to working families — now she’d need a dozen licenses, and an industrial kitchen that meets the laundry list of requirements for those licenses, and certification that she’d taken and passed some government-mandated food safety training program, and the whole project becomes financially impossible. Or she could have set up a home child care business, but now that requires a home that has been remodelled to meet all sorts of requirements, certification, very new cribs, strollers, high chairs etc (because the regulators and their industry lobbyist cronies keep changing the “safety” standards every year, forcing caregivers and thrift stores to throw out all their inventory and buy new), additional staff in many cases even if only a very small number of children are being cared for — all far beyond what people are required to have in their own homes to take care of their own children. There are a lot of other types of self-employment that are closed off too. And those that aren’t generally already have a huge oversupply of people trying to make a living doing them.
Ms. Hughes’ dubious history should be pointed out to WINK news...looking for an email address for writer Nick Spinetto...
Or have ACORN stage a sit-in for her?
I call these jobs "work fare". They are provided by large private employers and government agencies, pay modestly but offer hugely expensive health and returement benefits and require very little in exchange. Unions have contributed to the development of many of these jobs.
Me too
