5. My mother is pissed about this.

My father just retired, so he won't be adding to his account anymore, and with not having insurance through his work, they're paying a lot to cover all the stuff Medicare won't. Still, they only have utilities and food to pay for now, since their land just got paid off and no more car loan.

I think they're a lot better off than some, since my father working so long really upped his monthly payment. Even with their medical conditions, they hardly go to the doctor now, and Daddy's big medication need is covered through the pharma company, thanks to his doctor.
