Trying to hang out with the cool kids.
Hello everyone. I prefixed this request as my greatest "prep" concern.
I have read most everyone's opinions regarding what age I should retire at.
My first question is about "medicare". I understand you must "register" at 65 even if you have current insurance.
How much does medicare cost? I understand there is a part "A" and a part "B".
What are they, and what is the cost of each?
I am thinking of "breaking service" with my current employer at age 65 and 1/3 years of age so that I may begin drawing my tiny pension, and social security.
I realize I will have to drastically reduce expenses (or keep my roommate).
I am willing to continue working part time to make up the difference.
I can't believe how many people I know who think Medicare will be free to them!
Also...pro's and cons about "supplemental" policies?
Ok...share with all of your OMG moments about the things you did not/or forgot
to consider in retirement!
