1. Downsize Your Home - - discussed many times on the board. I think this is one of the main ways to cut expenses.
2. Ditch a Vehicle - - well, I only have one but it does amaze me that so many families in my area have 5-6 cars and only 2 drivers. Must be a status thing.
3. Take Required Minimum Distributions - - well duh? They might as well say, "don't park illegally". You'll pay if you don't follow the rules.
4. Spend Taxable Accounts First - - good point
5. Scrutinize Investment Fees - - the Bogleheads will tell you all about this
6. Sign Up for Medicare on Time - - well duh? Like #3, you'll pay if you don't follow the rules.
7. Find the Best Medicare Part D Prescription Drug Plan - - I already have a prescription drug plan, and don't even anticipate signing up for Part D (depending on upcoming changes in health care, of course).
8. Delay Signing Up for Social Security - - now here's one we have discussed to death!
9. Exit Expensive Cities - - here's another duh? We have often compared expenses in big coastal cities vs small towns in flyover country,here.
10. Travel Smart - - but I don't wanna travel that much...
11. Ask for Senior Discounts - - they forgot the extension of this one. Don't color your hair, and then you won't even have to ask for the senior discounts!
12. Find Age-Related Tax Breaks - - TurboTax is so nice about helping with this. Plus, there are some for property tax and state income tax that I have found.
13. Ditch Your Land-Line Phone - - I plan to do this. Of course, then I might get a fancier cell phone and fancier plan....
14. Get Rid of Cable TV - - no [moderator edit] way!
Besides, my cable TV only costs $15.95/month.
15. Find Free Entertainment - - is there another kind?
16. Resist Your Grandchildren - - don't have any yet
17. Eat Out for Less - - we do share meals as suggested. Good for the waistline as well as the budget.
18. Learn to Cook - - BTDT but don't cook to save money.
19. Buy Used - - love to come home with a "find" like that
20. Comparison Shop - - I have a better one!! Don't shop so doggone much.
21. Eliminate Debt - - done and doesn't it feel good?
