Description

This is a group for those of us that find ourselves reaching retirement without buckets of cash for high living and limited or non-existant medical coverage. Many of us may have been self employed much of our lives. Most of us will have lived pretty frugally just to get here...and when we spend money, it is for what we know we want. But we have fun and manage to have a good life, too!
