Do you get a letter from Social Security about once a year that says that you could get 1600 dollars or 2100 dollars per month if you retire at a certain age? |

Yeah, I guess. I opened one of those once, saw the numbers, shook my head and trashed it. Haven't bothered to open once since. Why? Simple, I am 41, there will be no Social Security when I am (whatever age the jack it up to prior to going broke and ceasing the "temporary" program that was part of the New Deal social program by FDR). Also, I am accustomed to way more money than that a month, knew it (SS) would never be there for me by the time I got to be that age and planned so well, that I AM ONLY 41 and AM already retired. A busy day for me is fishing from sun up until noon and then making it to the course for a 2PM tee time. And you can multiply roughly the average of those above SS numbers by 10 if you want a look at my monthly gross, just for waking up and scratching myself...that is so long as certain offshore banks stay liquid...and yes I pay taxes on it. Turn me in if you'd like to embarrass yourself....I did everything I could to stay under O's magic "$250,000" a year he promised not to raise taxes on...which the last I heard was really down to about $90,000, which really, will all be moot if we take on a government run health insurance, health care system...that'll bankrupt the country into the next century and cause mortality rates to increase all in one fell swoop. There are better ways to fix the problem for the 50 million, no, the 47 million, no, the 37 million, no, the 29 million uninsured people here without penalizing the other 271 million people in this country. Karl Marx would disagree, of course, but Marx's days are long gone, right? |
