Elmont can handle things, he’s smart — not crazy like people say.

This is really sweet.

well, if he schizophrenic or whatever the current terminology is, he has quite enough to do tracking his personalities and alternate realities. he really is busy.

When they need it ?

Alice is quite the wise woman! Too bad she can’t take Lacey’s place in Congress.

I hope the first thing Joanie does is set up a separate account for Alice—one that her “husband” can’t get his hands on!!

Alice should have said ‘I know all of you are busy’…

Hard and lengthy work keeping track of all the voices in your head.

Gotta love Alice.

I only have one voice in my head, and it disagrees with me a lot.

You know, without any real proof, I’m thinking Berny Madoff is likely lurking around there somewhere looking to help them out with his sound financial advice. Maybe the “dame” isn’t so bad.

You have all those people in your head you must discuss things with.

I’ve always admired how adept Alice is at handling Elmont.

I have a schizophrenic SIL who lives next door to us. Dealing with someone with this condition, – especially one who refuses to take medication, – is not always easy or pleasant.

ANY time someone feels the need to prove they are smart, I think of Fredo from ‘The Godfather’

Invest in something where you’re your own best customer.

In this case,pharmaceuticals.

When you’re schizophrenic, you can’t always keep track of what your other selves are doing.

At least Elmont’s got an excuse. What one do all those Wall Street go-getters have?

The problem with multiple personalities is sometimes they argue with each other

Schizophrenia is a full-time job.

Sounds like they don’t actually need it yet.

It’s easy to handle finances when there aren’t any finances to handle. I’m living proof.

NOT the best disorder for handling money I assume . . .

Always thought El represented the republicans and Alice the democrats

Let’s see, Elmont. You have always been the one who handles the money, and now you are both homeless. ’Nuf said.
