our family and friends have reflected further on the proposed settlement and see it rewards those that have been remiss in handling their financial affairs--if you took out insurance you were penalized--if you were a high income earner, and that income is lost to the family, too bad, there is insufficient compensation. The limits on income are so low as to leave out any reasonable compensation to high income earners no matter how young they are.

How can $300- $500,000 possibly be called reasonable compensation to a 32 year old high earner, who truly had the potential of earning even more than that in a month a few years down the road. While my daughter had the benefit of a large insurance policy, she needs a stream of income and that policy at today's "safe" investment rates simply will not provide it. If you are going to come close to a fair "arbitrage" settlement,limits must be raised--otherwise you will be inviting a messy ending to an already tortured situation.
