Tis that time of the month again. No, no it's not THAT. Uncle Sam paid me early this time and naturally I was elated to see $$s in my account. About that time I got a stupid attack, I paid the bills

So much for money, isn't it that way for all of us? Well, at least I can try to get in a nap later, it'll sooth my aching wallet

It too is another one of the problems we face as we age @Asylum

That's the way it goes, doesn't it? All would be fantastic if it weren't for those bills . . . but well, it's something we all have to deal with. If anything, I guess the bills keep us from having too much money

Is there really a such thing as too much money? I mean just look at Trump or Clinton, they're rollin in the dough and yet they're tryin to dream up more ways to get money.

Sometimes I think they give some to charity only because they can take a tax write off @much2say but I do hope I am wrong about that.

It only took 40 years of working to gain Social Security so hopefully I will receive a check each month. The hard part is being extremely frugal.

It's amazing how little we need to survive, it all depends on what we want to pay for @paigea if we want all the bells and whistles then yeah, it'll never do but if we trim down the things we want it can be sufficient.

@rebelann That reminds me I have to apply for my CPP (Canada Pension Plan). That took 40 years of working too. And I would certainly not try to live on it but it will help.

So very true everything is due this week it seems and in couple of week my husband gets his summer bonus but that is spent for things that we need and breaks on the car. Just when think there's a little extra money never fails but on the other hand Im glad that we can take of these ourselves. Have a good weekend.

Yep, something always breaks down just when we're about to get a few extra bucks.
