Baby sister #3 flew down to the Sunshine state a month ago and took control of Mom's finances.

Mom has been paying bills for BS scams for years.

Occasionally I get bridged onto those phone calls with the "service providers", so I can hear the smack down when they realize the gravy train is over. I try not to laugh, bc some families are rekt for generations from these scams. But isht is kinda funny.

All that to say, if you have aging parents in Florida, Arizona and Colarado, these are the states they target. So have those uncomfortable conversations with your family and do what needs to get done. Otherwise, the scams will continue.

Your mom is lucky to have you all looking out for her. Many elderly people no longer have that and it’s heartbreaking. 🫂

We are all fortunate. It's a team effort and would be a much heavier lift were I on my own. But Mom has 3 children and 2 grandchildren. We all chip in.

That’s really special 🫂 for all of you and her too. We need more grandparents around in the world too, to tell their stories and share their wisdom
