The downward trend past 65 is very encouraging......With my COLA pension solidly in place, I am rejuvenated and not giving up hope. By age 105, I think I have a damn good shot at it!

This reminds me of a recent conversation I had with my mother. She was lamenting the shrinking middle class in the US, saying "Soon there will only be rich and poor people in this country. What will we do then?" I replied, "I just plan to be one of the rich ones."
