Guess they should have chose option 3 joined the Military. Serve 20 years get a pay check and medical for life.

Bonus, you join army, army breaks you, tries to sweep it away but eventually your children get survivor benefits.

and fun fact, Some veterans can get free mental asylum and cremation. (My mom tells us when she's over the hill, hand her to the va, they'll stick her in a ward till she dies and then cremate her so we don't have to worry) (My dads running plan is to work till he dies at his desk, then the army will bury him for free too)

If you wanted to eat, why didn't you just sign up to murder brown kids. Service guarantees citizenship.
