Been years since my last actual pay check $$$$$$ for work I'd done for the Man & bummer I miss that. And I'm glad I woke up and planned ahead so I wouldn't have to depend on a S.S. Check ever month to get by on ever month KOOL. ... And I'm far from being rich but still watch where my money goes and part of that is staying out of debt except for my monthly's and anything else I need? I'f I can't pay cash for it and or it comes with monthly payments "GASP" I don't need it. .... How ever I notice the Yearly so called Raise I got from my S.S. check that I never looked on that as a job to retire on has been Ate Up By my Florida State Propety Tax and other things to the point they know we got it / some and they've adjusted to get it too GRrrrrrrrr The yearly raise in my Property tax is the one that burned me a new one as I live on top of one of the highest hills in my county and I'm 75 miles from the Gulf and never had or filed a claim and in talks with one of my Governers Aids I've come to the conclusions like others that I've got to help pay for those on the Gulf and ocean fronts houses and property that's been destroyed over and over as each hurricane gets them say what? I can see helping em once but they keep building in the same ocean front and it's got way past old and I'm not one to just sit back and be a lay down like others as I'm Rasing you know what about it GRrrrrrr With the Inflation added on to that and with everything going up in the last couple of years I'm thinking as far as what S.S. gave in a raise its been took care of and is now gone or going?
