I know someone who, due to ADHD, has trouble paying their bills on time, and managing their money. They found a legal service that handles their basic finances, and gives them their budget for shopping, fun-money, etc.. The service is surprisingly reasonable, something well under $100/month.
While not quite what you asked, a service like this would at least provide an additional barrier, before someone hands over their net worth to a scammer.
The next step after that, often used for elderly people, involves a full power of attorney: someone else is completely responsible for their finances, and hands them either cash or a debit card with a small amount of money that they can use however they want. But that is for extreme cases.
- javajosh 3y agoSounds like a great service. What is their name?
- bradley13 3y agoProbably not applicable to you, it's just a small legal/financial/tax services office here in Switzerland. Not sure how he found them - maybe they did his taxes, and he asked?
- 5040 3y agoThis sort of service can be useful for gambling addicts too.
- t_mann 3y agoSounds like a service that in itself requires a lot of careful checking and trust, which kind of defeats the purpose. If someone offered me such a service, I'd probably assume that it was a scam. Things like 'Regulated by FINMA' may mean less than you might assume.
