I know I am not your normal early retirement person but wanted to share one of the reasons I give up work when I did. I am not getting any younger and wanted to spend more time with my grandchild. What a joy she is to have around. I hope I live long enough to see her finish college and get...

I retired one year ago the end of this month. I did not turn 65 until last August and I was assuming the wage limit would kick it at that time. Now I am finding out I may have to pay some of my money back from SS because it figured on the calender year, not when I turn 65??? . The limit a 65...

Will that count toward my total earning for the year or does it start the day I went on SS? I think it starts the day I did retire but I wanted to...

I think I know the right answer but wanted to confirm. I know the limit is $14,640 on what I can earn in 2012 because I am not 66 yet . My question is this. When does this start? I made over that in the month of January and February if selling my sick and vacation leave counted. I retired...

I am getting all these things in the mail as I soon turn 65. Some I am not sure about. One that I got today is something about MyMedicare.gov. Is this a legit site? I do not want to give my information to a stranger. The website looks like the real deal but wanted to know for sure. The Words on...

Late in the day I walk miles in our neighborhood. My wife and dog go with me. The problem is this. Many of my neighbors want to stop us and talk. I keep walking but my wife said I am rude. She stops and chats. I say I cannot get exercise if I stop every 1/2 mile and talk. Anybody here ever dealt...

What if you were playing in the club championship tournament finals and the match was halved at the end of 17 holes. You had the honor and hit your ball a modest two hundred fifty yards to the middle of the fairway, leaving a simple six iron to the pin. Your opponent then hits his ball, lofting...

I was planning on retiring a while back but things did not work out so I am still working. I turn 65 next August and was wondering how much I would be paying for insurance supplements if I do retire then. I know it varies from state to state but a average figure would be nice. I have friends who...

I turn 64 in August and I am still working. My Wife turns 62 this Wednesday and does not work. I have been the good husband and never forced her to work at a regular job.

Tonight my wife and I were walking and all of a sudden a pit bull showed up . Our Springer Spaniel was also with us and the Pit was trying to get at her. Anyone used a stun gun for things such as this. We have been walking in the same neighborhood for years and never once had a problem. Now I...
