If she can do that, then she needs to open her own business as a consultant and teach others how to do the same thing on a limited income. Maybe she can get off of benefits with this "Gift Of Knowing How To Save". :)
True. And we should look at each person's situation. For someone who is not actively seeking and searching to do better, then they should not be allowed to receive free aid FOREVER. For those that prefer to sit on their bottom, watch cable all day and not be a productive citizen in their...
EXACTLY! How long should someone get help? I think there should be a limit. FREE aid should be available for a certain period of time. During that time, the recipient should get their act together and enroll in some type of skills relating to seeking and securing a job, some type of trade...
