He had to be on disability. Work from home didn't exist back then. He didn't have any crafts or artistic gigs going on that we saw that would have been a work from home type of thing.

I feel like I remember he was roadie for Metallica at some point? I might be making that up though. But if he was, he could have gotten hurt and be on a fixed income now.

My uncle was worked from home for over 40 years starting in the mid-80s. It absolutely existed back then, it just wasn't very common.
