Originally posted by sonhouseIt seems that it takes more and more to live now days. My wife and I do not have to go to work, so I guess that cuts down on some gasoline expense, and we got our house paid off before we retired. However, I know what you mean about little things adding up.
I lost $250,000 in a retirement 401K fund that I had no control over, it fell to nearly zero in '98. So I am back in the job market, barely making 77K WITH my SS coming in. It is barely keeping me afloat.
