I personally think most elderly living in mixed age society think and do better. Could it be they are sharper being exposed to younger minds and experiences?

I see those aged 80+ being much more active here than where I lived in NY or MD. Could be because of the higher numbers here (more to notice) or could be because of the activities here.
And still, the original question was whether one could live here on SS.
- It was not whether I would need to
- It was not whether I would want to
- It was not whether someone could live better somewhere else
- It was not whether someone could buy the largest house in the newest enclave with the highest bond
- It was not a lot of things that have been argued in this thread
