"But low oil prices are bad for the US financial system. #msg1947466 @Mad Scientist : No matter what happens, the outcome remains the same. It's like it ends overnight, even though this fight keeps going on and never seems to end. How long do we have to keep paying for what's going on?

"Gardening posts here have slowed down a bit and I'm tired of politics, so trying a non-political topic. I'm so impatient! I'm waiting and waiting for my chili peppers to come in... it's only been 4 weeks. My kale is growing nice. Next time I will buy more so I can harvest more. I harvested a little bit the other day and my son and I each got like one bite (cooked). The mint is growing well. My son wanted that one. My scallions are growing a bit slow for my liking. New to that one as well...."

So... if you make $100,000 a year your last few years before retirement. Your target income would be $80,000 in retirement.

"@AntiRanchDrssng : There are some government positions that don't pay into social security because their employing agencies pay into a pension plan at a higher rate. I don't think opting out of social security to pay into a Roth true.... anyone who collects a pay check can pay into a Roth IRA, regardless of their eligibility for social security. You can have and benefit from both. While it is true that over a lifetime paying into a Roth IRA or any IRA or 401k/457b can benefit you well... it requir..."

"@Mahkno : Unless the government has rescinded it, there used to be a way to opt out of Social Security. I think you had to prove quarterly that you were investing those dollars into a qualified plan. If an 18 year old would put that money into a Roth spread across about a 12-15 EFTs, by the time they hit 67, they would have more money than they'd see from SS in several lifetimes. Yes, I know getting people, especially young people, to put $$ away for retirement would be hard. And now with all the entitleme..."
