@GezzaP just e-mailed the trustee of my disability trust to ask how much money has been left in there. Its been going for years since my parents died. The money gets invested in all kinds of financial instruments to make the dollar go further. While a disability trust is limited and only covers things like money for health and wellbeing in retrospect its possibly the best thing I ever did creating that trust. I think most people would put it in a bank account and use it all up. My trust was created around 2010. I thought I'd check as I know you mentioned you were worried as to how much super you had left. Now I'm wondering how much money is left in the trust

My super is ok @SmilingGecko . Just took out some to cover coming medical expenses and other large bills. When I’m 67 I should get a part pension and most importantly a pension card with all the concessions that come with that. Helper came. We went to shops. He’s working in the garden now. Hoping he does some cleaning today too. Will take him to lunch as need to use atm so I can pay him cash.

Thats good @GezzaP at least you know your pension entitlements. I've got to get lawnmower man out this week as the lawns are looking ragged. I will get an e-mail from the trust to find out whats left.
My brother got swindled by a con man with his share of the inheritance. So now hes left with nothing. My ex wanted my house and money, so glad I got rid of him. He was trying to research ways to access my trust. So glad he's gone GezzaP.
He used to hang out with wealthy people where he did not really belong and expect them to give him things like money, access to an elite golf club, wine, lifestyles and gourmet food. I tried to warn the millionaire friend on facebook dont know if he ever got the message. Millionaire used to work in IT as an Australasian consultant and was in and out of airplanes while many of the employees were on drugs to cope . He did not know who his real friends were.
Dont know what my ex is doing with his life now. Possibly still trying to swindle people. He has no digital footprint by design. Anyway hes gone

Happy sleeping @TAB . Yuck dentist! I recently had yet another tooth fall out losing my teeth thanks to inherited bad gums. I’ve got private cover can’t really afford it but my psychiatrist only comes to private hospital if I need to go into hospital for my Bipolar. I hate washing sheets. I did get up and shower since my helper is here. Will take him to lunch as need to go to atm to get cash to pay him and will be good to get out of house.

@GezzaP thats good. I split up from my ex 17 years ago. Dont know who he is with now I'm just glad hes not in my life. But he was driven by the dollar and would use any means possible to weasel himself into people lives and get what he wanted. Hes gone. I hate to think who hes paired up with now. He had no savings and used to go through his own money like there was no tomorrow.
