Thank you so very much. I've been asking around in RL and pooling the suggestions to help me feel more sure of what I'm doing.
I don't need to pass any money on and I would guess that I have about ten more years before I need to go into assisted living. If anything of the system is left at that point, as a good taxpayer, I would have no qualms about accepting my share of financial assistance and it is good here in Minnesota.
If nothing is left of the system, I suppose I can join the hordes who will be dying off! It'll be close to time at that point anyway. Heh.
That's how I'm looking at it at present. No financial intricacies are needed as much as knowing that I'm using common sense.
Some acquaintances I talked to tonight seem to support this idea as well.
The "buy gold" idea is a good suggestion, I think.
