    SSI is welfare.  He said nothing about welfare.

    Will you be forced to go to Medicare at 65?  I have a much better than average understanding of Medicare and supplements.  No, I'm not there yet myself but I run a group on Facebook of retirees from my long-term employer and from where I too retired.  Most are on Medicare and health insurance is the most discussed topic.  My group has 3500 members and I run it by myself.  I've learned a lot helping the older folks.

    It is automatic 2 days after my birthday next month. I have to have it to keep Tri-Care which will become my supplemental. It is free. That's why I am tired of all the calls and mailings.

    Our land line is used solely for DSL.  Our cell phones use whitelisting and are on the Do Not Call registry.  We don't get junk calls, or if we do we don't know about them.

    I said Element didn''t say anything about SSI.  He didn't.  Seems you are the one not paying attention.

    Do I need to quote what WW was telling you in his previous reply you made this question for? Sometimes an apology would suit you better than keeping on making insults. Smh.

    You have nothing to apologize. Someone else has, but that won't be the first time and frankly... I doubt it will happen. It's easier blaming others.

    Sorry, but I will not look at someone making such an outburst on one of my friends when it's not fair. In any other way I agree with you e99, to stick to a question and the relevant comments made for it.
