[QUOTE="LBrandt, post: 277911, member: 2979"] Took my SS at 62 but kept on working to the point of having to give back on SS. Really stopped working for money at 70 but wife is 9 years younger than me and now has a real good nursing job in Fargo that she really enjoys. She plan's to work another 5 years. Everything is paid for, homestead and house this last fall done, Shop in town will get moved to farm this next year and then I'am set. Had 8 different fixing on myself last year so most wearout parts are replaced. Have packed away and will continue to do so until wife quits. With SS and slush fund we will have plenty enough to go another 15 years easy. Got some green in cash that only wife and I have access to in bank lock boxes just for emergencies. If you don't have nursing home insurance they will clean you out FAST but I don't worry about that cause they will never find all my firearms, and if I would have to go to one of those God awful places I'am taking the cowards way out. Just live every day like its your last, enjoy as much as you can to make yourself happy and sometimes that's just the little free things. LB [/QUOTE]
