Brother in law #1 (my wife's brother). Carpenter laid off 3 years ago, been working odd and side jobs. Diagnosed with cancer earlier this year. Now his wife was laid off, and we are helping them with cobra payments. He is too proud to apply for food stamps, but his wife is getting them.
Brother in law #2 (my wifes sister's husband) Hasen't had a job for more than 6 months in the 22 years I have known him. My sister in law works as a nurses aid (low pay). They have been on every kind of assistance available, move from house to house when their credit runs out etc.
How do you seperate the wheat from the chaff?
