[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]How bad does the person have to be? This would be in Florida. He is late 90s and has an alzheimer's diagnosis. The problem is he is a very difficult person - yelling and cursing at people - and insists he needs to be in charge and that his crazy ideas are reasonable. So if we (his kids) try to take guardianship, he will yell and scream about it. He can walk and talk but doesn't know the date, for example, has signed a contract he couldn't fulfill (to buy a house), [b]and is giving away tens of thousands of dollars[/b]. What is the process? We do not want to take his money; we want to protect it in case he needs memory care. [/quote]

New poster here
I saw the bolded and in your later post that he is ranting about politics.

I posted here about a month ago that my siblings and I recently discovered my Dad has given away over $60,000 in political contributions (actually a month later, we are discovering it is even more than that!)
One thing I found, you can look up who donates to what/whom...and how much, here.
https://www.fec.gov/data/receipts/individual-contributions/?two_year_transaction_period=2022&min_date=01%2F01%2F2021&max_date=12%2F31%2F2022

We were able to see all the specifics of my Dad's donations by searching by his name an city

We were shocked to see the extent--there were some days where he made 100+ small ($20-75) donations in a single day!
When searching for my Dad's contributions, I noticed other people's names popping up frequently enough to be concerning (though none as bad as my Dad's.)[/quote]
