At least the guy knows how to save. Let him know that next year the law requires him to get healthcare. Of course he may have to put those boots on to get into the library to use the computer to shop NY's exchange so he may need some more help.

This may come across as crass, but I have found in my experience, that there are 2 kinds of people in this world that think you owe them everything. The filthy rich and the homeless.
