Heard on YouTube

I just found you on YouTube and you give so much good info. I have been on disability for several years. The amount I get is below poverty. I worked since I was 15 but after many years I got a chronic illness and a degenerative disease and could no longer work. It takes away your feeling of contr...ibuting to the world and self esteem, then after paying out of every check I don’t receive enough now to live on my own and survive. It would certainly help if we got a $200.00 a month raise, but I still think Biden believes in and wants socialism, but I guess there is a little good in everyone. Back to you thank you for your time that you give to explain these complicated papers to us.

You know, people are texting me how much their monthly expenditures are...I used to think $200 might be a chunk. Now, with a survey going, I think $200 is not enough. I'm working on a stage based upward mobility scale system. Disabled people deserve things, the ability to save, the ability to travel, ect... Please keep commenting and sending me ideas. I can't come up with everything myself, but with your help, I can put things together. I have an idea for a system that will provide proof of increase requirements that the legislature should take action on. You know we will be getting somewhere when they ban the youtube channel :-)

Lets figure out how we can prove that disabled people need more, and then present it to the government. The worst that could happen is nothing, the best, SSA recipients become first class citizens again in a country where they used their best years to build it.

Where was Walter?

If I'd have known about Walter when I began filing for Disability and going one rejection after another, I would have not wasted 10 years of my life and kept my house. Final judgement after I got to see a judge face to face, Iwas supposed to get SSIand SSDI. The worksheeets hd been worked out for me... how the process waas gooing to work. When 12 months after my SSI had been in place, My SSDI was supposed to begin. That didn't happen because Ihadn't worked enough in the previous 5 years-NOT my fault, I couldn't work, although Iwas trying. With all of the rejections Igot- That was what wasted my time not working sufficiently enough. t didn't matter that for the 33+ years I did always work 1 1/2 jobs, my full time career and a side job. I was told time and again - It's your age. I was shy of 50. Major spinal injuries don't discriminate on Age. I learned how thy system is set up against you. BTW, for 2 years before I finally got to see my judge, I was Homeless, on the street living out of a grocery cart receiving Citations because it's Illigal to be Homeless in Tucson. Don't know where the Ciity Council thought the money for Citations was going to come from? Ilearned a lot from walter just by finding one of his podcasts on You ube, so I hadn't actually spoke wih him for a consultation. he seems more knowedgeable than the firm of total Boobs (nt being sexual, just showing how how uneducated they seem in Hindsite. I now Wonder if I have any chance of trying for again for my SSDI? I guess I culd call Walter for a conultation. all I have is time now that I can barely do anthhing else that involves more more action than sitting up or lying down.

Howdy, I am so sorry that you lost your house. I want a law in place that does not allow creditors to advance when someone applies for disability benefits and has at least a moderate impairment. If there is anything that I can do to get that 4 star up to a 5, please let me know. By the way, email me a timeline and tomorrow in-between briefs ill send some ideas over. Thanks, Attorney Hnot

The most accessible attorney in this field

Even when talking to a case worker they don't know how disability or SSA works. Talking to an Attorney to ask a question will cost money. This attorney shows that he cares by making information easily accessible and answering questions without charging you for a simple answer you should have access ...to through senior and disabled services or DHS or SSA.
