A daily walk with... ME |
| The Social Security Administration announced the following in December of 2015: Since there was no cost of living increase in 2015, your benefits will stay the same in 2016. In October of 2016, they announced that there would be a 0.3 increase in 2017!! WOW!! That means I get $4.95 more per month. Let's see... Should I use it to pay the $20.00 increase per month in my medical insurance premium or the $50.00 increase per year on my Homeowners Association dues or the $20.00 increase per month in my water bill? Maybe I could buy two extra loaves of bread or two gallons of gasoline!! I'm just so excited!! I don't know what to spend all that extra money on!!! Oh wait... Medicare premiums increased and took that whopping $4.95 anyway, so... I'm right back where I started two years ago. But that's okay because there has been no cost of living increase, right? |
