I much prefer watching games on my TV: I always see what's happening very clearly, there is thoughtful commentary and slo-mo replays.

You believe in an invisible god, and dismiss people who say they are trans? Really?

The Bob and Tom show were talking about them this morning so they must be.

TikTok is way too much a waste of time. Maybe it is a Chinese plot.

Most Americans only expect to pay around $41,000 total on medical care in retirement.

A 65-year-old couple retiring in 2022 can expect to spend an average of $315,000 in health-care and medical expenses in their retirement, according to Fidelity Investment's August estimate.

"Older adults are the greatest consumers of health-care services," she explains. "Most people do not realize that Medicare does not cover every health-related need and there are deductibles and copays."

That is why I advocate putting people down when they reach 65. At some point it is not justified to keep them alive. No different than an old dog.

If I need to pay 315k to stay alive
It's time to pass away

I call BS, I think! Maybe your Insurance (Medicare mostly) that may pay that amount, but the elderly couple isn’t forking out that much $$$.

Hmm
I just checked that 315k number
It's for a couple, I'm single
At about 150k , think I'll stick around
Way less then 150k according to Soopoo, definitely sticking around
Insurance is so complicated and I have to admit I don't look into it much
Have a Florida Blue Select Gold policy via Obamacare
Just paying 270 a month, very reasonable
No idea if it's better or worse then medicare
