>>Just for the record, you can have considerable assets and still qualify for Section 8. I researched it because I have an aunt on Section 8 and she worries about re-qualifying each year. You can have, depending on the state, as much as $100K in the bank and qualify for Section 8. A large portion of the folks in my aunt's retirement community are in the program.<<

Karen -

I hadn't realized that. Thanks for the information.

I will do everything I can to avoid Section 8 and Medicaid, but I guess it's good to know that they are there. Depressing to contemplate it all.
