Y-you’re telling me that America wasn’t willing to just give away billions of dollars in aid in the middle of the worst economic disaster in the county’s history???
I guess I don’t care how wealthy they are, my question is how much would it cost to hire someone to be your caretaker 24/7 and go with you everywhere you want to go like the grocery store etc
Actual live-in nurses are pretty rare and very expensive, but I think you’re overestimating how common they are.
Most of what you see is just caretakers who come during the week on a set schedule, which is usually a lot more affordable than nursing homes because you’re paying for someone’s labor versus labor + living accomodations.
To answer your second question, it would cost whatever rate the nurse agreed to work for. It would have to be pretty competitive. In most cases, having to live at the patient’s house isn’t seen as a benefit of the job.

Is there an artist whose work you love but was a shitty person?
It can sometimes be hard to separate the artist from their art. Are there any artists who were bad people but whose work you still enjoy?...

How wealthy are those elderly people who hire someone to be with them at all times, instead of moving into a nursing home?
