33% of men 65-69 work.
Looks like RiT isn't the only guy REWahoo can't get through to.
I was assuming that this estimate already assumes health care costs continuing to escalate faster than incomes for another 22 years.For example, 35% of income for those over 65 years old goes to health care (and presumably that percentage will increase as health care costs increase). That is quite a bit.

Hey - I ain't even 60 .
I thought it was interesting how many older citizens still live in really cold climates .
I'd have some theories, but nothing I am sure about.That really caught my eye, too. I don't have many theories why that would be... it's so nice here in the south
Oh, great. Just what I needed. Another cheerleader.
Wuss. Real men don't let a couple of bad market days interfere with living their lives.This bear market has set me back easily another 3 - 5 years.
Wonder how it would compare with a COL map of the USA? Just a theory...That really caught my eye, too. I don't have many theories why that would be... it's so nice here in the south

Many of the more vibrant job markets are in the sunbelt now. So many younger people are going there for economic opportunities.
And I would also think that there are quite a few elderly in colder climates who can't afford to move. On a board like this, it's easy to lose sight of the fact that there are a pretty large number of our elders who don't have much more than a Social Security check. They can afford neither the cost of moving to a more pleasant climate nor the cost of housing and living in many of those areas.

We're pulling, you're pushing!Well, I see it like this... at just 30, I'm the right age to take over reminding you to ER when the rest of them are so deep into retirement that they don't bother to check in here any more. I figure my time will come to carry the torch in another 15-20 years.
who cares about health care costs. just think how this is going to effect demographics at the disco. old fat hairy guys dancing with their shirts off. this is just dreadful.

Get in line behind REW, Nords, Jarhead and a few other misfits. They're just jealous that I get to go to work while all they can do is sit around. OK, maybe they play a little golf and visit wtih the grandkids. Or take a trip in the RV. Maybe surf a little. Sleep in. Get the motorcycle out once in a while. Lie on the beach, take morning walks. Not put up with bean counter drones. Garden.
