I'm Disabled, Bottle Feed Me!

[adamparkzer]

A woman from Florida thought she was doing a good deed when she was helping a man's disabled brother by changing his diapers and bottle feeding him for $600 a week. She found out about the offer after searching through Craigslist, and continued completing the task for three months.

Then the woman and her family found out that the man they were helping was not actually disabled, and he didn't really have a brother; the person the woman had been diaper changing and bottle feeding was the actual man that put the offer up on Craigslist!

After calling police, the woman learned that the man was not committing any definite crimes because the woman was being paid for the services.

It was $600 weekly, not $600 monthly. Not that it really matters, but just thought I'd point it out.

Nice catch, ichwar. I've edited the first post.

So on other words, be a nanny for $600 a month? Not bad, really.

$600 a month! Are you kidding? That's horrible pay. Now it was $600 a week, but even that's laughable. She was clearly cheated, as she could of made much more at a real job.

Yeah.

Ichwar always seems to think that everyone must be as rich as his family.

He doesn't get out much!

[ichwar]

No, I'm simply saying that she could of gotten more than $2400 a month on a better job. $2400 is $10 an hour pay. Do you really think that's very good?:nuts:

[zen-r]

Yes, $600/week is good if she only worked 2 hours per day.

And even $10/hr is better than nothing, if you're hungry & no-one else will give you better paid work.
