“I’m kicking in as much as I can but my retirement doesn’t go far.”

Since I was always self employed, I paid in as little as I could to SS.
I started drawing it at age 64.
While it is minimal, it is more then I need for a pleasant
life for me and my girlfriend here in the Philippines.
Many in the US are paying more for gas each month then I pay for a month of rent, food, internet, and a ltr. of wine every day ;)
