General Discussion

Recently I was in the hospital and I automatically panicked that I wouldn't be able to pay the many bills that would come my way after Medicare. Then I realized that I had more than enough to cover them. It certainly makes recovering a lot less stressful.

Yes, I think a whole lot of people are doing better, but apparently they don't realize it or perhaps they listen too much to the mainstream media and politicians.

I've spent so many years on the brink financially and now I realize what a difference it makes if a person has a reasonable cushion. I understand what people are talking about when they advocate a guaranteed minimum income. It doesn't have to be a lot, just enough to keep one out of constant panic mode.
