How many of you agree with Grandma Zaza's respsonse to Fla Swamp Boy's question on Social Security?

Did anyone else spill their beer when they read this?

I never spill my beer.

Our investments have rolled over so many times that I can not even count.

I suppose you think it is "fair" for the government to keep any of your unused funds that you have contributed if you should die early, which I will, no question. My husband won't see a single penny of what is not collected because his check is the larger of the two.

[grandma zaza]

I prefer wine.

Prooooobably why bartenders call me "f@ggot".

[Sawyer]

No, I'm a social drinker...not an alcholic.

[Mother Hubbard]

My generation lost way more than half of the money in IRA's since the 80's.
