[QUOTE="vantexan, post: 3861315, member: 24302"] But you specifically bring up Texas to ridicule when California and New York have higher percentages of their populations on Medicaid. I just checked those but no doubt other states have higher percentages too. By the way, I knew and know what I'd be getting under SS. It's not found money and it's always been part of my strategy for retirement. Yes, I'm paying a physical toll for physical work. I quit early enough so that it hopefully won't be as bad as if I worked until I'm 67. But it's a fact that should be drilled into kids heads from an early age...SS isn't enough for a decent retirement in the U.S.. If they want to retire someday they need to start saving every week of their working lives and increase that as their pay goes up over time. Everything else needs to be second in priority. I wish I had listened to that but blew way too much in my earlier years. And most won't do that and will find themselves in a bind eventually. [/QUOTE]
