Me? I'll be 63 this year... and retirement's still a long haul from here. And yeah.... I share the "Beware the Ides of Sixty" caution. I had back surgery at 60, but was able to dance at my daughter's wedding three weeks later. Met with SSA ...but only because of this REAL ID thing forced me to get a SS card. Never had one before. Who knew it was necessary? Dad... never bothered with that I guess. Bad news is they limit the number of these you can get. So now it lives in a safety deposit box.
