CASE WORKER. How much do you consider those books worth?
TED. I consider them invaluable.
CASE WORKER. But you must set a value upon them.

CASE WORKER. Because if you own anything worth two hundred dollars you are not eligible for relief.
TED. I have nothing worth that to anybody but me.
CASE WORKER. You say you quit selling these books about two years ago.
TED. Yes.
CASE WORKER. How have you lived since then?
