There are plenty of drunken homeless morons out there. At least this one isn't costing us any tax money (yet). |

Quoted: There are plenty of drunken homeless morons out there. At least this one isn't costing us any tax money (yet). View Quote From the above article: Trouble is, he can't resist the bottle. He abandoned his career as a carpenter three decades ago for life on the streets. View Quote Dinarde is homeless, he often sleeps in the gutter or on the sidewalk, and he has plenty of cash -- a trust fund that at one point was worth nearly $700,000. [red]He draws $2,500 a month from the fund plus $500 a month in Social Security.[/red] View Quote Actually, he does draw our tax money from the government. How does one draw %500 monthly when you haven't worked in three decades? |
|
how can he draw SSI with all that cash in his account? i'm familiar with some of the rules for SSI and they keep track of how much you have..if you have too much (i believe 1k or more) your monthly check gets deducted.
what an idiot. once the press starts circulating this around some real bums are going to murder his ass. i'm not saying that's what should happen, but i don't see how that couldn't happen. |

Why is this guy drawing social security?
This is not right at all, when there are people who have worked, and worked hard all their livesonly to get shit on by social security daily |

At least he's not smoking that devil weed...
Let's be glad he picked something safe like alcohol. |

View Quote View Quote [lolabove] [rofl2] This guy won't be a story in a few years at the rate he is wiping out that trust fund. He will then just be another homeless drunk with no money. |

If Old Dirty Bastard (ODB) can collect welfare while he makes millions singing rap music, this wealthy drunken bum outta be able to get a little Social Security money on the side.

What gets me is that he has a trust fund worth nearly $700,000 yet the .gov still sends $500 a month in Social Security.
I know he probably earned it while he was still a productive member of society as a carpenter but he doesn't NEED it - does he? These stories surface every once in a while. There this homeless guy in Lansing, MI about 15 years ago. Every morning he would go into this coffee shop and buy a fried egg sandwich for breakfast and a grilled-cheese sandwich for lunch. He'd wrap it all up and go about his business. One day they found him dead on the streets. In his shopping cart was a meticulously kept accounting ledger with a balance close to a million dollars. |

View Quote Sorry, but you're completely in error. Money alredy in you possession, and the interest therefrom, has never been a part of the income limits on Social Security. Only money earned from an ongoing job or business was counted. However, as of three years ago, ALL income limitations on recipients 65 or older were removed. This man could have a business that earned him a million a week, and he'd still get his Social Security money every mont. Recipients from 62-65 are still under income limits for any earnings over about $13,000 a year. You lose $1 for every $2 of earned income above that amount. The zero sum hits at about $30K. I went on at age 62, and will turn 65 this year. Kept working part time for the first year and a half, so only lost about a month and a halfs worth of benefits. In 2003 I was unemployed for half the year, and unemployment benefits don't count against SS payments. I'll lose about another month and a half from what I made the last 6 months. With what my wife and 6 year old son also get, as co beneficiaries on my account, and the bucks I make at my full time current job now, we have a nice middle class income. So thanks to all you young guys whose hard work and SS deductions are helping me maintain a nice middle class lifestyle up here in North Georgia, where you can actually still buy a nice house for under 150K, and local taxes don't break your butt.[:D] Sure, I'm still having to work where a lot of folks are sitting on their butts at my age; but it's work I love; and I hate sitting on my butt. Just makes me fat[:D] |

He is doing EXACTLY what he wants to do. Why do you care? He is not a drain on the welfare system and does not require handouts and has plenty of money.
You people amaze me. Let the man be. Fuckin hypocrites! |

It's not your money he's drawing, it's his. He's paying his bills which is more than I can say about most people. You want to go kick someones ass for abusing the system, IM me and I will give you my ex-sister inlaws name and address. The bitch hasn't worked a day in her life, lives in a three bedroom all utility paid welfare apartment, and now collects SSI and has medicare just cause she paid a doctor to tell them she's mental. Disclaimer, if being a BITCH makes you mental then she's mental otherwise NOPE. Why do I care how this guy lives. It's not my money. Tj |

Just makes me fat[:D] View Quote Guys, there are two types of Social Security disability benefits, Title 2 (SSDI) and Title 16 (SSI) Title 2 is basically an insurance plan, for which you are entitled if you have paid enough into the system over the last 40 work quarters (or the last 40 work quarters prior to the established onset of disability). Your existing assets have no effect on eligibility. Title 16 is a needs based program, and assets and resources over 3 grand (excluding home and car)disqualify you. A big windfall can indeed cause these benefits to be ceased. Incarceration also results in cessation of these benefits. All this is moot in this case though, as the BIQ (bum in question) is drawing retirement, not disability. If he paid in enough to qualify, he deserves it. (Caviat; for every regulation governing social security, there is always a 'except', with exceptions to the exceptions. The goverment no longer prints the rules governing SSA on paper, instead providing it in disc due to the sheer size and astounding volune of revisions received weekly.) [b]Tom Jefferson[/b] If you think your SIL is fraudently receiving benefits, feel free to IM me with her name, DOB and preferably her SS#. I can at least trip a continuing disability review. |
