they say they desperately need money for his operation. Also, they live in a $300,000 house in a fancy subdivision, but have not sold or mortgaged their house to save his sight. I will bet they have possessions they could sell to raise the dough and aren't doing that, either.

And the operation will cost between $20 and $30,000, which, frankly, is not very much money for someone who owns an expensive house and probably some newer cars/SUVs.

He won't apply for disability because "it takes too much work."

You want to talk about entitled assholes? He and his wife are the poster children.
