About ten years ago it was projected that SS would run out of money the year I would qualify for it. I was just SOOOOO thrilled.
I don't have a retirement fund, no pension, no IRAs, nothing. I own a house and my salary barely covers my monthly expenses. I don't foresee that changing. Unless I want to work until I drop dead, I'm going to need government assistance and the fact that I've been paying in on SS for 25 years and it won't be there, pisses me off.

So, I'm right there with you.
