I post an awful lot now that I have time. Anyhoo, just a thought about the end of this article, where this poor old man has lost his financial freedom, at the hands of his own relatives, no less. This is absolutely deplorable. Tony Unspach and his extended family, who pitifully leave their grandfather, great-grand father, and father 50 dollars a week of his OWN social security fund (which is a monthly $800 check) can be considered the most greedy, horrifically disrespectful people ever born.

It's his money. Yes, he was bilked out of thousands by fraudsters posing as individuals in charge of his account. It's still his money, not yours. The "extra" $600 you keep from his social security is not rightfully yours and more critically, even if that money is not enough to cover his expenses, it is your obligation to provide for your elderly relative. Stop trying to hoard it all for yourself and ensure yourself a nice fat inheritance because that is by your actions, what you are doing.

May karma come to avenge your actions and may your children leave you to rot, penniless, in a nursing home.
