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.
This kind of “America did nothing in WW2” rhetoric is almost as r-word’ed as “America soloed WW2.” You’re an idiot if you think America was “years late” and didn’t play a huge role in the European front. Not even to address the Pacific Theatre.
they didn’t actively put boots on the ground until shit got really close.
False comparison. There was no alternative to “boots on the ground” for the European Allies when the war happened in their backyard, but there was certainly an alternative to the U.S. offering a quarter-trillion dollars (adjusted) in aid to Europe.
Some would say 1935, with the invasion of Ethiopia. There’s also a large body of historians who view WW1 and WW2 as being a single event. To sort of piggy-back off my above reply, the idea that WW2 “began” in 1939 is as Anglocentric as Americans thinking it started in 1941.
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???
Dead Rabbit Radio, been shamelessly shilling it (not my podcast and I’m not affiliated with it any any way) for the better part of five years. Daily paranormal and weird news episodes and Jason Carpenter doesn’t have all the cringey seriousness that most high strangeness podcasts have.
I gotta ask, am I the only one here who’s absolutely fucking salivating at the thought of North Korea unleashing a legion of AI-powered Terminators on the world stage? I mean, think about it: North Korea creating a fucking army of Skynet-level robots that could march into Seoul or Tokyo or even Washington DC and just start...
Makita is honestly the way to go if you really work in the trades. The extreme top-range specs of DeWalt or Milwaukee’s tools could (and should, IMO) be easily surpassed with a cheap corded tool.
I don’t know how it is in Europe, but Bosch tools here are incredibly hit-or-miss between products. A driver might last five years but a jigsaw only a few weeks. I don’t know of they contract out more work than other cordless makers, but I’ve never known a major brand to have as big of a quality gradient as them.

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