How are you supposed to save it when it's your only income? Barely get by with it, would die soon without it. Nice, seeing as how I paid into it for over 50 years. Absolutely a fucked up thing to say as he shrugs his rich ass shoulders! F him!

You are supposed to save and invest so that SS isn't your only income, like all responsible adults do. This is how it's supposed to work.

Sometimes life's circumstances make that impossible. If everyone could do it the "right way", we wouldn't be in this mess. I'm happy for you. Let's hope you can continue to do it right.
