5) John------ if you can't afford to save for retirement without a 2%
increase in your paycheck that would result from ripping the heart out
of SS, you're doing something really screwed up with your household
budget. Perhaps additional income would help. Ever consider joining a
union?



Me? I'm twice retired already, Chuck!

In another year, I'll be drawing three retirement checks!

I would still have preferred the option of investing that 2% you speak of
in my
own way.


I have an Uncle collecting retired O-6 pay, naval reserve, 25 year civil
service pay, and white house retirement pay. When he turned 62 his income
shot up like a rocket.
