XVP Re: Retirement & its impact

Having gotten caught in the USA Capital swindle, I needed to take Social
Security at 62. Never a moment's regret. Since I have continued to work I
have gotten extra tiny increases in the amount, which concatenates since
every increase is by percentage on top of previous ones. It's worked fine
for me - I'm now 73 with no idea if I'll outlive the age 78 breakeven point.
Life is good.

I can sympathize....the Tyco scandal wiped out almost half a million that I had spent over 20 years saving.

Dennis Koslowski got out of prison last month, and had a net worth of $600 Million. If I can ever retire, I'll have the time to hunt for his kneecaps!

I can at least in theory understand your frustration and anger. However, publishing such blatant threats is not a smart idea. Should someone shoot at his knees (surely you're not the only one with such anger), you're going to be a suspect even if you can prove you were playing FPDW when it happened. You think you have problems now?

Better to keep such thoughts to yourself.

Ha...I guess the line between sarcasm and threats is hazy for some. Me knee-capping anyone is about as realistic as me playing FPDW!

Though I'm sure that joke would be lost on many as well.
