I wonder if they will try to claw back any of the money that was disbursed in the many months she was not a Florida resident?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">It&#8217;s not 100% clear if she has already received the funds for this month but it sure sounds like she&#8217;s spent it all already in just a matter of a couple of days because it all goes towards hotel rooms and DoorDash meals that add up fast. Candy is banned from a lot of the cheaper motel chains now, so apparently she can only stay at the more expensive ones.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I don&#8217;t know if this is because Louisiana doesn&#8217;t have the same benefits as Florida or if Candy just needs to apply for those extra benefits in Louisiana.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If this isn&#8217;t a simple matter of applying for new benefits, I predict Candy will be moving back to Florida, or at least finding another state with similar benefits as Florida.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"07\/01\/2024 - Social Security check reduced because of Medicare\" width=\"1200\" height=\"675\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/9RGuBTtEqXA?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"284\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.tiwatch.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/image-2.png?resize=1024%2C284&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-3301\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.tiwatch.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/image-2.png?resize=1024%2C284&amp;ssl=1 1024w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.tiwatch.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/image-2.png?resize=300%2C83&amp;ssl=1 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.tiwatch.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/image-2.png?resize=768%2C213&amp;ssl=1 768w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.tiwatch.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/image-2.png?w=1458&amp;ssl=1 1458w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"750\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.tiwatch.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/image.png?resize=1024%2C750&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-3299\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.tiwatch.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/image.png?resize=1024%2C750&amp;ssl=1 1024w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.tiwatch.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/image.png?resize=300%2C220&amp;ssl=1 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.tiwatch.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/image.png?resize=768%2C563&amp;ssl=1 768w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.tiwatch.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/image.png?w=1196&amp;ssl=1 1196w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"721\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.tiwatch.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/image-1.png?resize=1024%2C721&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-3300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.tiwatch.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/image-1.png?resize=1024%2C721&amp;ssl=1 1024w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.tiwatch.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/image-1.png?resize=300%2C211&amp;ssl=1 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.tiwatch.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/image-1.png?resize=768%2C541&amp;ssl=1 768w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.tiwatch.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/image-1.png?w=1184&amp;ssl=1 1184w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"07\/04\/2024 - I sort of regret going to the 4th of July event. - I have $3.91 left.
