Michael is doing better than most of us. He can collect early SS. I cannot afford health insurance, as a single woman of 63..it would cost me $250/mth with a 5k deductible. My skillselt has been outsourced to foriegn soils. I live in Florida, where there isn't any jobs in my field. Also, do not forget...companies do not hire older Americans, mainly because of the health insurance rates.

If I were this person, I would start helping people out with their computers. I continually have problems with my computer; when I have bigger issues, I would love to have someone to call that's not going to charge me through the nose.

Thank you very much, Carol. I will make sure he gets your generous comment.

Mr. McClatchey of Michigan seems flexible, making me wonder if he would like to help my brother in Walled Lake, Michigan. He is doing a landmark business in real estate, leasing homes and other propreties for people who leave to find jobs elsewhere. My brother has been in property management for 30 years and is very hardworking and honest. From time to time he hires people to work for him as managers, etc. Please have Mr. McClatchey respond if he's interested. I don't know if my brother pays health or retirement benefits.
