I know one such person. My ex-wife.

When we got divorced (because she got involved with a younger man), she (and the Court) insisted that I pay for her to attend college and get a nursing degree. So I paid for that for several years.

Once she graduated, she tried nursing for a short time, but discovered working is difficult. So she quit. Now, she does nothing, living off the money she got from the divorce, and gets for child support for our youngest daughter, from me.

Three more years until that is done. I can hardly wait. What she thinks she will live on after that, I am not sure. Probably the money she hopes to inherit from her parents.

Talk about your societal leach!

We all know people like that. I have an aunt who my grandfather made give up her baby for adoption, when she was 16. So out of spite and despair she turned to drugs and stealing for drugs, ect... She is now in her late 50s, and still lives off welfare and hand outs from her family. And her attitude is that she DESERVES it for the misery her life became. Have another aunt on long term disability who went straight to a disability pension - her disability is that she cannot work with others.
