I think she was a General Practitioner. Big house, you might call it a mansion. She spent lavishly on expensive food, clothes, electronics.

At the end of the month, she would gather up clothing and sometimes appliances or electronics and return them to the store so she had cash to pay her bills.

Every month.

This is who people were trusting their long-term healthcare with. A woman with a PhD on a salary who couldn't plan her finances 30 days out.

My niece is a doctor. She is a pediatric cardiologist. Also a very good artist.
