[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Just chiming in to say that my mom did this too--low level fed job that she left because she just didn't feel like working anymore.  She had no money and no partner either.  She told my sister that we siblings were her retirement plan.  As if.   In my mom's case once she stopped working she had no idea how to spend her time. Her way of getting out of the house was to go shopping and buy all kinds of crap she didn't need.  When we moved her out of her house there was just so much cheap crap new with tags that she tossed in closets still in the original shopping bags.  She did take a few trips but otherwise had no idea how to manage without a schedule.  What about your mom OP?  If she's not working she will be spending more money either for travel or self-improvement projects.  You can't do anything though.  It's been 15 years and my mom is out of money in a nursing home on Medicaid.  I talked til I was blue in the face and it didn't make one bit of difference.[/quote]

how did your mom get into the nursing home on Medicaid?[/quote]
