My friend was in a car accident about three years ago, and it crunched his car (dope 9000 aero) and screwed up his shoulder. Basically, he was sandwiched between a semi and another smaller truck. Since then he has had recurring shoulder problems and a lot of physical therapy and will probably never be 100% in his shoulders.
Well, finally the trucking company's insurance is giving him a settlement. Something like $70,000, some of which will go to unpaid medical bills, some will go to the lawyer, but still, thats like $40-50k in his pocket. As soon as we can get his credit fixed, we're gonna go house-hunting
