If you don’t mind my asking, how the heck does a retired person pull down $76 grand a year? Shrewd investing?
Thanks for the catch! I meant under $38,000. Gosh, I wish I had better investments!
Three way split between SS, UBER driving and a rental.
I do better than that and it is called living within your means so you can live well when you retire. For example, my vehicle, a Korean, is 8 years old. The car it replaced was 16 years old. The car before that was killed in an accident at age of 8 and replaced with a similar year used one.
I live in a no income tax state.
I have not purchased a home in 20 years so it is paid for too.
We don’t eat out much, we take one week vacation a year domestically by car. We did not send the kids to away colleges and made them earn their keep.
We maintained our health.
Lastly we did not play divorce Russian Roulette.

yes. and shrewd savings, a la 401(k)/403(b)/IRA. and self-employment as a small business person after leaving the corporate world. this latter can bring in as much as one is willing to still work.
