OMG...such a long and annoying story.
Lets see if I can summarize...
She wanted to retire early - though she's totally not financially viable enough...but when she divorced in 1987 they didn't take retirement benefits into account. So she found out that some $200 of her retirement would go to him, unless he signed something waiving that money.
So she had to find him to get him to waive that money.
So on the one hand I can understand she doesn't want him getting hard-earned cash. On the other hand she's opened Pandora's box.
I just talked to her again and my head is going to explode- I think I will drink heavily tonight -
She's not blaming the whole sister/mom situation on me....which is news to me...but totally her way - anything to not take responsibility for her own actions in this whole thing....
