Reply #88: Perhaps you could explain what you mean in more detail?

As far as I'm aware, you're talking about handing over the cash needed to bring someone up to some minimum standard, say $20K (or $100K, the example numbers don't matter). Right?

So someone who has no special needs is going to do very well on that in East Cornpone Mississippi...but someone who lives in Boston where rent can be $2000/month and who needs full-time live support plus custom adaptive equipment and vehicles...what about that person? That $20K or whatever is going to vanish like spit on a stove.

Or are you talking about having everything finely titrated according to location, expenses, etc with lots of justifying paperwork to make sure the person in East Cornpone isn't collecting at the level of the Bostonian and even the Bostonian isn't putting anything into his pocket?
