wha type of bussness would be a smart investment for a disable person?

Answer 1

It depends... are you receiving SSI and/or SSDI? If so, you probably also qualify for Medicare/Medicaid and foodstamps. If you work and earn beyond a certain dollar amount or have too much in assets, you could lose your benefits. Contact your local Department of Health & Human Services (DHHS) and ask them for suggestions. You could also try to set up a Special Needs Trust, but should contact a lawyer for advice (there are some who work pro bono as a service to the community). Best of luck!

Answer 2

Well depending on your experience: Some things could be good like providing hard money to real estate investors and owning a portion in the properties until you are repaid or purchasing multi unit properties and allowing a management company to lease them for you. If you are interested maybe I can help you find the right people.

Answer 3

A disability is a condition or function judged to be significantly impaired relative to the usual standard of an individual or their group. The term is often used to refer to individual functioning, including physical impairment, sensory impairment, cognitive impairment, intellectual impairment or mental health issue. This usage is associated with a medical model of disability. By contrast, a human rights or social model focuses on functioning as an interaction between a person and their environment, highlighting the role of a society in labelling, causing or maintaining disability within that society, including through attitudes or accessibility favoring the majority.

Common usage refers to 'a person with a disability' or a person who is 'disabled' or, more controversially, who is 'handicapped'. Some prefer to only refer to specific 'disabilities' rather than to a generalised sense of 'disability'.

United States

[edit] Discrimination in employment
The US Rehabilitation Act of 1973 requires all organizations that receive government funding to provide accessiblity programs and services. A more recent law, the 1990 Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA), which came in to effect in 1992, prohibits private employers, state and local governments and employment agencies and labor unions from discriminating against qualified individuals with disabilities in job application procedures, hiring, firing, advancement, compensation, job training, or in the terms, conditions and privileges of employment. This includes organizations like retail businesses, movie theaters, and restaurants. They must make "reasonable accommodation" to people with different needs. Protection is extended to anyone with (A) a physical or mental impairment that substantially limits one or more of the major life activities of an individual (B) a record of such an impairment or (C) being regarded as having such an impairment. The second and third critiera are seen as ensuring protection from unjust discrimination based on a perception of risk, just because someone has a record of impairment or appears to have a disability or illness (e.g. features which may be erroneously taken as signs of an illness).


[edit] Social administration
The US Social Security Administration defines disability in terms of inability to perform substantial gainful activity (SGA), by which it means “work paying minimum wage or better”. The agency pairs SGA with a "listing" of medical conditions that qualify individuals for benefits.


[edit] Education
Under the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act, special educational support is limited to children and youth falling in to one of a dozen disability categories (e.g., specific learning disability) and adds that, to be eligible, students must require both special education (modified instruction) and related services (supports such as speech and language pathology).
