As a widow living on one Social Security check and with medical bills I can’t pay I’ll gladly take it. Some of you people sound rich, but not all of us here are doing so well.
I started paying into Social Security when I was 15 years old. I worked hard all my life and I’m struggling. Nobody plans for inflation. Or that we went off the gold standard right after I entered the workplace and now money is practically worthless.

I worked hard all my life, served in the military, paid my taxes, have no criminal record and am in remission from cancer. If the government had invested social security money instead of spending it, I would be comfortable now instead of struggling. Is the 2K a good idea? If applied carefully.
