One of my great uncles was in a rest home. He did pretty well. BUT. He had travelled around the country for 15 years and lived out of motels. His brother had a slab poured outside his window and parked his Mercedes he had traveled in so he could see it. His brother lived in the same small town, visited, and snuck in booze. The only trouble he had was he could see a Braums sign from his window, but would get lost trying to walk around the block to get to it.
His situation really showed the good and bad in people. Because he had Alzheimer's his brother would visit and get him talking. He would discover things he had invested in while traveling. Contacted them and found he had earned LOT of money. His estranged daughter found out he had some money swooped in, got right of attorney. The first thing she did was sell off his Mercedes. When she did that his brother figured she was after the money and didn't care about her father. So stopped trying to find investments. Figured they had only found a fraction of them.
