What you are talking about is absolutely true. It just happened to someone we know. And to heap insult upon injury, though he is close to Medicare age, his wife is 3 years behind him, making the scramble for healthcare awful It was obvious age-discrimination, but the big companies have the big legal departments.

This is our situation. Except he is 4 years away from Medicare, I'm 6 years away from it. His social security benefits don't kick in for another 1.5 years. We're living off the money we put away for to supplement his pension and social security, in our retirement. It'll be gone early next year, if we can't sell the house up north.
