By now you know that my son blows through money like the rest of us blow through toilet paper and Kleenex. Three or four days ago he got a $700 check from cashing in his 401K and it's all gone. He's been staying at an AirB&B and just squeaking by paying for it. Also he has to be out tomorrow because they don't rent long-term. In the meantime he quit his most recent job because he says his coworkers are talking smack about him and his supervisor is a jerk (my words, his were much more "colorful", although he has been getting out on the bike to deliver for Uber Eats. Of course he doesn't have another job lined up.
Well today he tested positive for COVID. Symptoms are mild because he's had the first two shots. He was planning to get out on the bike tonight but now can't, obviously. So he's playing the sympathy card (I guess I'll have to sleep on a park bench or bus stop, etc). I feel bad for his situation, but I also know that a lot of what is happening to him is due to his own poor decision making skills, so in that regard I don't. All I can do for him, and all I am willing to do for him, is pray. And I haven't ad won't waste my breath reminding him of all the foolish decisions he's made that contributed to him being where he is now. I hope and pray he can come up with a solution, but I won't contribute to it, it's entirely up to him.
