Unfortunately my dad did not properly save for retirement — after an expensive divorce from my mom resulting in bankruptcy, he never has quite recovered financially.
To this point, he has been able to get by on Social Security + doing miscellaneous jobs for short periods of time, but he has chronic back and knee pain that prohibit him from working on his feet for very long. He also unfortunately fell and broke his hip a few weeks ago.
The unfortunate reality is that he is too old to continue working in the traditional sense and I don’t know how he will be able to pay rent and afford his living expenses in the near future. I cannot afford to pay for his living expenses, so I am extremely stressed about what to do.
What can be done for someone in this situation? Please do not criticize him — what’s done is done and I am just looking for a way to move forward.
