I am sorry but they knew when they joined we were in war and those who joined before knew the possibilty. Alot of people would blow that kind of money if given it, it should be set up right with trust funds for college, retirement, and some cash. But then bonuses should be given to the cops, firefighters and volunteers as well for without them many more would have died.
the money is set up like that. There are certain stipulations that go along with the 9/11 victims money. A certain amount is not released until the children reach a certain age and a certain % is used for thier college education. Plus if the person who died had a life insurance policy that is deducted from the money they receive.
