Except when Bob Taft's cronies are running the state's trust fund, and lose $15 million on coins. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Casper Posted August 19, 2006 Report Share Posted August 19, 2006 Except when Bob Taft's cronies are running the state's trust fund, and lose $15 million on coins. Uhm, yeah... that didn't effect us. State jobs rock. No SS. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mensan Posted August 19, 2006 Report Share Posted August 19, 2006 And the most F'ed up part about all of this is the fact that we wont have SS by the time we retire.. If you play your cards right, you won't need SS when you retire. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SpaceGhost Posted August 20, 2006 Report Share Posted August 20, 2006 SS was not meant as a retirement fund. When it was put in to action, the benefit age is the same as today, 65. Care to guess the mean Age that a male died at the time of its inception? That's right 65. This was only meant to be a widow’s fund if the male died before 65, it would give Women of that time money to live on since women didn't work back then. It was nicknamed the "widow fund". SO today's males live much longer and now everyone is collecting on it. I will never collect on it. I will be a millionaire when I am 55, although maybe a million will not be that much then but I can retire at 52 from the state! Live on that retirement for a few years, (80% - 90% of my top 3 years salary) I get that the rest of my life. Then withdraw my Roth Tax free a few years later! I am 1/3rd of the way to retirement at the age of 31, I just need to stay alive to see it...... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dragknee66 Posted August 21, 2006 Author Report Share Posted August 21, 2006 I would just like to NOT BE taxed and save it myself/for myself. Not much to bitch about though, none of us like being taxed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
