Hello everyone! I’m 26 years old in Illinois. I was in a car accident that killed my mother and seriously disabled me in 2018. There was a whole big, long lawsuit because it was caused by a semi truck driver and it wasn’t our fault. And now we’re in a whole SEPARATE legal ordeal trying to get me to receive survivor’s benefits of the social security money that my mother “racked up” over her 35+ years of working. Anyway, I’m receiving monthly payments from a 10-year annuity that was set up with some of the money from the lawsuit that had to be put in a trust. The woman that manages my trust said I couldn’t pay for an apartment that cost more than the amount I get every month because then social security would say if I can afford that, I don’t need social security checks. Does anyone know anything about this or any way I could get around this? I don’t know much at all about finance or social security or annuities or anything like that. Thank you!
