Open Question: Can I get an apartment in Missouri while on disablilty and how much would it cost?
(Wed, 01 Sep 2010 01:06:37 GMT)
Hi, I am 17 years old but will be turning 18 in a few months. I have health conditions and am filing for disability. It isn't healthy for me to be still at home considering the fact that there are 5 people living here and we are almost unable to cover the bills as it is. The other problem I have is my insurance. They say I can be on medicare or medicaid but I can't have a job.. How to I get an apartment with little to no cost and be able to live comfortable?

Open Question: Long-term care vs. long-term disability insurance?
(Fri, 27 Aug 2010 23:58:58 GMT)
At age 36 in a blue-collar job (i.e. chance of disability over 90 days less than 10%), I'm thinking it may make more sense to get long-term care insurance rather than long-term disability. I bring in 30% of our household income. If I become disabled, I count for very little of our total spend (obviously food, but I wouldn't be doing much in the way of leisure / entertainment), but the added costs of caring for me would be too much for our budget to bear. I also think it would be very hard t

Voting Question: What do you think will happen in my child support case?

My husband and I separated over a year ago. I live alone with my son. I pay all of his bills. Daycare and insurance cost me roughly $800 a month all together. I don't get government assistance because I make too much. My husband has since moved out of state and has had a child with another woman.

It's not cuz I wouldn't have the money in the first place, it's because like any family, rich-or-poor, your child's disability could cost millions, especially if you can't find a right insurance company. So **** gets expensive.. couldn't handle it.. but i'd still love him and get him a better home. :)
