Right about what? Women? Hell, if he and you are just figuring that
out, well, ya need help. d;o)

But he is NOT correct about SS being broken. THAT was the original
post. It is kaput, giving out more money than it is taking in.

BTW, I do thank you gentlemen for paying your taxes so that I can have
my stipend Navy retirement, and my stipend SS check every month. How
long can it last, however. If you folks do not have a stock portfplio
for your retirement, you are taking a helluva chance.

Bigger and bigger the monster grows. Bigger and bigger and bigger and
bigger. Will it soon burst? A giant POP heard 'round the world. BOOM
and the house of cards comes down.

No problem. We're all going down to the local Verizon offices and marrying the
first female vice presidents we find that're looking for father figures and
have at least $300K salaries. And then we'll spend the rest of our lives
claiming everything we have was hard-earned and the result of all kinds of
personal sacrifice.

I've read that ought to work pretty damned well!

Yeah, like your wife is a nurse, right. d;o) She supporting you now?
Heard you were unemployed or maybe it was unemployable.

Jelousy is a terribly heavy chain around your neck. It really doesn't
become you.

I had money before I met Joanne - worked hard for it too. And invested
well. We both did well with GTE stock. It was like I had a 3rd
income. Nice. An even nicer when you don't need your Navy stipend and
it can go straight into investments.

As far as personal sacrifice: Try spending 20 years in the military,
earning nada and having to take a second job so your kids can have a
decent Christmas. Try it, big mouth. I sacrificed in my youth so I
would have something now. And I do. If you are still employed (heard
you weren't), please pay your taxes. We (collective we) are going to
need all the help we can get.
