"So, do you collect social security and medicare?"
Sorry to disappoint you, but neither. I'm not old enough for medicare or social security at this point, and I've never been on welfare in my life. Worked since I was about 11 years old. And yourself?
So you retired early? Congrats! Once you hit 65 or 66 do you plan on collecting social security and medicare? I ask this since all retirement medical benefits are contingent on you accepting Medicare as your primary insurance.
