Who is asking for advice? The OP asked for opinions on whether it is possible. The numbers make it look like it is possible. Desirable? Maybe not, but possible.
They were asking for advice as to whether they could live here on SS benefits alone. Semantics.

Some are paying on a $30,000. bond every year. Again semantics. With your breakout of $1500. once a year doesn't make the budge look any better. Squeaking by isn't fun, in fact, it could probably affect their health if things get too tight.
