An update from Ben;

It is happening to me again. Due to a perfect storm of negative situations/conditions, I will be without a place to live, at midnight, May 27th, this month. Due to my 2 complete hip replacement surgeries, the time it took to get properly insured, so I did not owe the hospital $200,000, (or whatever) then covid-19 hit and delayed it 9 more months. Then recovery from that, I was forced to live off my life savings for around a 5-year period, my life savings of $125,000 liquid cash, was completely used up. 5 years of not working, added up to $25,000 per year, roughly, for 5 years.

My life savings for retirement is wiped out. My social security is meager, and I am on state assistance/ food stamps. I am now, ready, willing and able to work, but it is near impossible to get hired on at 65 years old, although I am healthy.

I was hoping someone could use my services, in barter for rent, for a bedroom until I get on my feet with a steady job. Not only would anyone who helps me would have free access to my general contracting abilities. Maybe someone has rental properties that need a super / maintenance person. Carpentry, masonry, plumbing, decks additions, landscaping, lawn and garden maintenance, vehicle and power equipment maintenance, I have done elderly care, to a point, driving, cooking, cleaning, companion, which frees up a spouse, son or daughter. It seems that many of my friends have very challenging situations with an elderly parent or parents. I am seeing more and more stories come to the surface, like mine. If anyone has any suggestions thar will help me get some possible, positive results, Text me, (203-627-3608), email, [email redacted] or private message me on Facebook.

I would like to sincerely thank all the dear friends that donated to my GoFundme page. It helped me immensely, to get to this point.

Much Love, Ben

P.S. ,,, Following in my brother John's footsteps, bartending / restaurant business may be a choice to reinvent my career goals. Will be reaching out to some peeps. This is really bazzar for me to do this.
