Curious, does she have anything in her will which Chris would inherant, or is she completely broke (I'm assuming the latter)?

I think Chris' best shot would be if his stepbrother who's a movie critique was generous enough to provide something for him, but as far as I can tell he wants nothing to do with Chris or the entire family.
 
Does anyone know exactly what the deal with the rental house was? When barn croaks and the house is lost to forclouse could Chris get in contact with the people who rented it out to him last time? Sure Chris isn't the sharpest tool in the shed when it comes to debts and obligations but even he could probably understand he'd have to pay rent for the house he was staying at after the fire. Unless of course it was always meant to be a temporary fix and he was never meant to stay there long term. Thought personally given the condition Chris and barn left the place in it'd be a wonder if anyone moved in after they left
I sincerely doubt he could afford it, as rents in Barboursville appear to run at a minimum of $1K/month; insurance paid last time. Also, there's no way those people would rent to Chris again after he and Barb trashed that house.

He's either going to have to go through an assistance program (section 8, etc), get a roommate, get some ultra shitty studio apartment in Charlottesville marketed to college students and crackheads, or find a run-down house or trailer somewhere in the area. Possibly a combination of some of those.

We don't even know if she has a will, although it's generally assumed that she does. Regardless, any property like 14BC is going to go to creditors. The only things of Barb's that Chris will be able to take are personal belongings, and considering most of Barb's things are smoke- and water-damaged clothing and other thrift store junk, I doubt he wants much of it. Maybe a few sentimental items, but that's probably it.
 
It's funny, all the "death of Barb" talk used to be because Chris was a living incarnation of inertia. Everyone figured that the only way Chris would do something - anything at all - is if Barb died, he lost the house, the mythical men with butterfly nets came to take him to a mythical group home, etc etc.

Now, Chris does stuff all the time, and the only question about Barb's death is how many abusive weens will try to take him in and rape him before he gets an apartment of his own.
 
That’s a hard nope.

The insurance paid last time, and there’s no way Chris could afford the rent by himself. (We’re talking 1200$ and up).

The only realistic prospect for him is a dingy studio: 6-800$.
There's no way would be able to move into an apartment by himself. He'll live in that house until the utilities get shutoff and the bank kicks his broke ass out.

You can live off a $1200 tugboat or however much he gets, if you have some semblance of how life works. Instead of buying groceries, paying bills, or rent, he's going to buy Sega Saturn games and MLP butt plugs.

It'll be a month before some lunatic fan "adopts" him for teh lulz or he ends up in a group home with the rest of the dregs of society. I'm predicting after Barb croaks it'll will be the group home saga. He'll blow through his $47.46 inheritance in a week.
 
Maybe he could get one of those USDA subsidized apartments? I have a friend that grew up in one and lived in one himself before getting good work and they were pretty nice, at least where he was. The rent is on a sliding scale based on income.
I'm in one now and it's nice. The problem is where Chris lives in Ruckersville, I don't think there's many subsidized options. Even best case scenario, it takes at a few months for the process to happen, and Chris will likely fuck up within that amount of time.

I have earnest faith in the feeder in chief. Here's my gut feeling on what's going to happen.

I imagine he'll get dumped on a fairly stable proto-cow, a handler in Chris' discord, or, most likely, something like an assisted living facility by Null. By this point Null would have set up most of the framework he said he was thinking of in the clip archived below.
Null probably wouldn't get everything done before this handover, so he'd have to check in on Chris for some final details. If Null chose well, he would have picked a party that, one way or another, would compel Chris to keep on top of this stuff, especially during this final details period. Chris would vaguely start to understand this new status quo, and realise that he needs to do what Null told him. It would stabilise with the party handling Chris taking very little of Chris' tugboat and hopefully by this point generalised income, unlike Barb, and building Chris' self-esteem in earnest, unlike Barb.

The requirements for this to occur are plain and obvious and I can believe I'm missing a lot of detail that would shit up the above. But, if I had to say where things were going, it's not Dax' gambit and that's what I would say in response.

A few points:

1: Null’s plan has nothing in it about a place to live. Just a way that Chris could earn money and keep the tugboat. (Mind you, a key component of this plan is Chris WORKING and doing something to earn money. Something he has shown zero willingness to do lately.)

2: Why would Null have the opportunity and access to put any of this in motion? This could only happen if A: He manages to get past the current weens hoarding Chris and B: That Chris listens.

Who’s Null to Chris? Some guy who helped him out a few years ago and who says things Chris doesn’t like to hear. There are/have been numerous people like Null in Chris’s life before.

3: Assisted living facility is a no go.

4: Who would this “proto cow” or tard-handler who’d take Chris in be? The people in his orbit have a few things in common: Disability/autism/straight up tards and living with parents. We’re at best talking people who stock shelves at Walmart and live in a one bedroom section 8 apartment.

I’m sure there are some normal people and kind souls who’d let Chris crash on a couch or a spare bedroom, but I doubt anyone could stand it for more than a few weeks.

Chris of course not only needs several big rooms for himself and all his crap.

He’s also not very likely to want to live with anyone else. He’s lived with his parents his entire life, is autistic and used to being by himself. In other words: I’m pretty sure the prospect of living with someone else scares/detests Chris as much as the prospect of having to live with Chris scares/detests us.
 
Honestly, I can see some people trying to take him in to troll , so that they can get internet fame. I honesty don’t see anyone taking him in after barb dies unless a family member takes pity on him.
 
Foreclosure and home repossession isn’t automatic; it can take an average of almost two years, and the banks must wait a minimum of 120 days of missed mortgage payments to officially start the process. There are also loss mitigation companies that will help consolidate the debt into something more manageable, and Chris is pretty much going to get a substantial tugboat increase. He has documented autism going back to the mid 80s, no credible work history, and he already had a case worker he can get in contact with as part of his disability benefits. Also 14BC will most likely be resold on the market as a foreclosed home and when you factor the history of the Chandlers in the household, whoever buys it will pay substantially less than the original value of the home.

Chris might not have any credit but he also has access to mortgage assistance and home loans for the disabled. There are safety nets everywhere for him, the issue is whether or not he’ll take it. However whenever Chris is deep up shit creek, which he’s been his entire life for the most part, he’ll seek out any help he can get from his “friends”. I really don’t trust the Watchmen though, unless a few of them actually know what they’re doing. Time will tell. Probably sooner than we think.

Big X for doubt on the tugboat increase. (That’s not how they work, lol!)

Chris’s tugboat is eligibility based, not needbased.

No matter if he worked one day two decades ago, worked 40 hours a week for years, or had all his limbs amputated, it would be the same as now.

Chris got his tugboat because he’s the disabled son of Bob, who paid SS all his life.

When Bob does, Chris’s tugboat went from 800$ to 1260$ and that’s where it’ll stay irrespective of Barb kicking the bucket.

Also don’t see where you’re getting this “caseworker” from. There’s zero to indicate that he has one.

There are also loss mitigation companies that will help consolidate the debt into something more manageable,

Doesn’t matter. It’s not Chris’s debt or mortgage. It’s Barb’s.

When Barb dies, the bank will take the house, and the bank and Barb’s other creditors will take whatever dollars they can get their hands on.

That’s actually part of the problem imho. Barb dies, gets buried, Chris stays and nothing much happens.

Chris is relieved that he has more of his tugboat to spend frivolously, and gets extra Lego and vidya.

This will go on for months or maybe even a year, and Chris will start to think that his goddess powers did the trick or he automatically got the house or whatever.

He sure showed those dumb haters and trolls who tried to scare him about being homeless!

And then one day, bam! Sheriff shows up with his deputies and tells Chris he needs to leave. NOW. Enter hedgehog defensive mode, as reality hits Chris at 80 mph.

I don't think these sort of people who actually attempt to do this don't really know what they'll be in for, imagine trying to take care of an autistic deranged 40 year old man child who doesn't wash himself properly and does nothing except accumulate plastic junk around his house, has an incredibly poor diet and won't contribute to any sort of needs or concerns of his "carer" because of his incredible lack of concern or compassion for other people and their problems.

You'd have to have an extremely high tolerance to consider pampering someone like him and not expecting him to pull his weight in any way around his living quarters. For each person that tries to do this, it will end in disaster every time.

Maybe dumping him in a retard house probably is the best thing for him in the longrun.
 
Once Barb is gone and Chris is out of that house, what are the chances the bank declares it loss and demolishes the house and puts up something new because all the damage from the hoard and neglect?
 
This topic needs to be closed what a constant circle of stupidity this is holy shit. I'm convinced now almost no one here is actually American, or they have some pretty sweet lives living in their parents house with hot pockets because Holy shit, maybe three people in here have any understanding of how anything works. Like "his case worker is gonna get him a substantial increase in tugboat cause he still has autism" LOL

At least it briefly went from "supermen are going to kick in the door with nets and take him to live in Disneyland because he's a step away from homelessness and he's drooling in the corner eating feces. He has a fire made from bills cause he doesn't know money!!!" To "Null has a super secret plan with an entire team, medical staff, and a billion dollar fund to get him antiautism surgery!!" That retard post was pretty good.

Inb4 "homeless n group home"

I don't think Null will be able to do that. Null refuses to play along with his delusions and gives him "prickly wicklies". Chris doesn't like facing the truth, hence the whole dimensional merge delusion crap that his enablers are pushing on him. Null lives across the world and unless Chris was willing to meet him half way and be willing, there's nothing Null can do about it. Null tried to help, but you can't help the unwilling. Even after Barb dies, I doubt Chris would be willing to do the bare minimum to let Null help him.

Once Barb is gone and Chris is out of that house, what are the chances the bank declares it loss and demolishes the house and puts up something new because all the damage from the hoard and neglect?

I would say the chances are really good. Barb's debts means the house will be theirs, and the house is pretty much worthless (other than the property its on) due to the way it's been taken care of for the past decade plus. You got the hoard, bugs, probably some rodent infestation, probably mold.

Probably not. I assume, based on what we've seen, that it will have to be at least partially gutted, mostly due to the animal piss and shit. It's bad, but probably not to the point that it's more economical to completely tear it down. The fact that most of Barb's Hoard has been in and stayed in boxes for the past 5 years helps.
