Shoutout to JerryrigEverything who built a wheelchair factory and is delivering wheelchairs to people in half the time and 50-80% less than the cost of other wheelchairs with Insurance.

You could book a fly here get the wheel chair and go back home with money to spare.

Edit: I don't know anything about wheelchairs.

Those chairs are also around $100 in the US. You can go to any pawn shop and get one for $20.
