Senior Women outnumber Senior Men
Yes, it’s a fact that there are lots more senior women compared to men… three women to one man in most senior communities.
One retirement community in Florida did it right! They hired men to dance with the senior women.. and senior men at that.
I love to dance… but I dance little. Dance is a great way to exercise, smile, and just get a little hug from another person!
Senior Men: Listen Up! Just think this could be a way to make some extra cash.. and a fun job at that! If you are a dancer, print out this article (below ) and start hitting a few senior communities to see if they’d be interested in your services! I bet they would…
Fun Fun,.. Great Story, Washington Post!!

Social Security ends “Do Overs”…
Effective December 2010, Social Security has ended their Reset Policy.
Previously you could have your Social Security benefit recalculated, as long as you repaid all that you had withdrawn. My guess is that few did this.. but lately, the media has been calling this an “interest free loan”… thus the policy change.
You can read the press release here:

This makes sense to me as you can’t undo a pension… so why Social Security?
We really should think twice before we apply for lifetime benefits like this… let’s take care of the system so it stays around for generations to follow.
