Subject: Re: FIRE !!! .................. ( PR&C) by vetteblondie on 2011/12/7 23:02:43 In my area we have 'volunteer' services also. Somewhere they get a small grant for it, but the firemen are volunteers. There are always fundraisers and such for them and people usually do what they can to help. works quite well here. but - if you're living in a mobile cause you can't afford anything else, then you do what you have to do. $75 for an entire year IMHO isn't much. $75 a month is different. My father only received $650 per month on disability/social security and he had to pay rent, groceries and you name it, plus his part of his medical care for heart failure and lung cancer out of that. Needless to say, he ended up moving in with us, he couldn't afford to live alone. But on a related rant regarding the post of "supposed it happened with a cigarette"... well if they quit damned smoking (assumption), that's at least $5 a day that could be put to fire/rental insurance. My policy is small and it costs me around $30/month. Beats nothing. |
