View submission: Living with no Retirement money
My hubby was a saver, I managed the money, we had our own business. I know how much I have in the bank. And while it's not still on the front burner of my consciousness, it's still on the back burner...that I'll end up having to eat cat food in my remaining yrs. And this is a silly fear, I have done everything to insure I'll never have that experience. I have long term care ins, a paid off house, my son & his GF live with me to make sure they're taken care of, loved, cherished, and I'm looked after too. I'm set up getting the most $ I can from the government, and money in the bank. And still, esp now with Trump & Assholiness Musk running things, I fight off the terror of not being able to afford to remain alive daily....

I have little savings, a house I share with my daughter and her two boys, I have a little condo I rent out, and 9 acres in Tennessee I see maybe once a year. And yet I still carry cc debt, and push come to shove I have about $20 a day to live on. The future has never been more in question than it is right now, for all of us. What part of the country do you live in?
