    I admittingly don't know all that much about Medicare. That will soon change in the next 24 hours, as I will educate myself. 

    1st thing I have become aware of? I have to pay a separate premium for prescriptions, on top of my regular A and B cost of Medicare?
    Typical A-B Medicare does not cover prescriptions?

    Sorry to hear that. I recall reading your comments years ago (damn the medical industry can be a headache)  right when I was starting going thru knee back  and hand issues. None are enough to qualify me for dbl, but they work together for making 8 hours of desk work difficult and uncomfortable, so I bought a hospital desk and do most work in a recliner. Lots of new strain on neck but it’s doable for a couple years before SS…So you are younger, the world is as thought!

    Isn't getting old fun?

    But today is a GREAT DAY!!

    Our house was listed publicly Friday night, and we had 5 showings yesterday. A few hours later we had an offer. Very close to what we are asking, potential buyer isn't asking for anything ridiculous on my end. He has serious downstroke money, and from what my realtor can see, this is a perfect prospective buyer. 

    Im gonna be sitting at the pool or ocean much sooner than later!

    Sorry to hear about your ailments. Do you just deal with it? Or does prescription medication help?

    Good news on the house offer.

    Thanks and congrats! Florida awaits! I do a lot of PT. It’s a long road, but hopefully in a years time, muscles will be good enough to offset the various issues.

    Speedy is as American as it gets. Hard working citizen for decades. Take your immigration narrative elsewhere. The complaint might be that his hard earned dollars are being spent on the immigration crisis. Instead of taking care of HIM.

    I don’t know what your name is or what colour your skin is but you may want to further anglicize your name and not be tan, in light of the Medicare/Medicaid personal data being shared with ICE. I’d hate to see you spend any of your retirement in Flo Rida in alligator Alcatraz. Just saying.

    Speedy is as American as it gets. Hard working citizen for decades. Take your immigration narrative elsewhere. The complaint might be that his hard earned dollars are being spent on the immigration crisis. Instead of taking care of HIM. 
    He still might want to take precautions. It’s not like American citizens haven’t been detained. And with Deathsantis trying desperately to out COOTWH, COOTWH, all bets are off.
    Bullshit. Keep plying your trade. Speedy, and many others like him, are so far off the list it makes your commentary comical. It undermines anything meaningful you might have to add. Too suggest that someone like him, or even myself, is at risk is a joke. Go catch some crab and leave US politics alone. Sorry for the derailment.
