I'm looking into situations where caretakers or friends have inherited wealth or home from non family members. Any experience with this?

I’m not sure you will find that here.

Most caregivers/families are using most if not all the funds (of someone’s life’s savings) to care for said loved one or many families are having to help support or fully contributing to to their loved ones care once retirement or assets run out.

A&E would do better finding stories of those who are suffering - trying to stay above water and/or in need of support - than they will find those whom find themselves better off financially….maybe better off in the soul - but rarely in assets or wealth.

Caregivers give up their lives - full timers - part timers etc. People are here on this board because of the limited resources and help. It’s why we lean on each other (than anything offered by the healthcare in any said country). The reward here is mostly from Love - the thing gained most is “time with someone in need”. That’s the story that should have a light shined upon it. Those who give their time out of love and get nothing but the gift of time by helping another human.

That is the real story that needs to be seen and heard 🦋

This should be run by administration. I will report the post and an Administrator will probably contact you.

Thanks for your response and I can see how my post would make one suspicious as your email makes some very good salient points! I am learning here also.

Yes, I am an independant producer and we are looking into this arena for a potential TV series for A & E Networks. My most recent series was a medical doc series "Dr. Death: The Undoctored Story" about a bad spinal surgeon airing on NBC Peacock told from the victims, lawyers and doctor's perspectives.

We are looking for people who might be interested in sharing their stories - but not interested in any financial details etc. If we were to move forward then an agreement would be put in place. Thought this might be a place to start an initial conversation and see if there were people who might be interested. Folks can also respond here on this forum if thats allowed.

Thanks!

Sara, I just searched and found hits for a Sara Mast in production, but honestly, it's hard to determine whether those hits are for you, or for someone with that name. 

My concern is your focus on "home or wealth", with the latter being a trigger word.   Personally, I don't feel that anyone who inherited wealth should be discussing that in any kind of production.   It could bring unwanted attention to that beneficiary.    And, honestly, it's no one's business.

The fact that you want contact directly, and not through any production entity, makes me more suspicious.

Periodically fictitious posters, snoops, and others post for their own nefarious reasons.    We watch for those and highlight the potential for inappropriate uses of anything we might post.  Anyone who wants direct contact, with information on inherited homes and wealth, raises a red flag for me.

In addition, your request is so very broad, especially since it includes friends and nonfamily members.   May I ask what specifically your intents are?    Do you provide an agreement that data will be protected, and if so, how?
