63. I agree. I am retired, and while I have growth in my investments, I am not buying

any green bananas, as the saying goes. I now have a big chunk in annuities which I have not annuitized but do have income from. I went thru a shock with GM's demise but did recover half of my investment (I thought it would all be for naught). I have an inheritance, which saved me from a very uncertain future. And I live frugally, altho I do travel (I have a bucket list!). But I also need every dime of my SS. I have considered teaching a course or two at a local college...crappy pay for the work, but if I had great students I wouldn't mind...of course, that's what every teacher wants!
