Not knowing you circumstances I can only offer suggestions. You should first check with the Pension Benefits Guarantee Corporation (PBGC) to see if you will get a reduced pension. It's a government entity that picks up pensions after a company goes bankrupt. You might have something coming from them. I worked for Eastern Airlines so I get a reduced pension there. You may also qualify for Supplemental Social Security, check with the SSA. Don't worry, you can live quite comfortably here in the bubble for a lot less then you would think. I know some widows who make $900 a month and they are doing OK.
