I guess this is good news...

The latest Social Security forecast has pushed the program's insolvency date back to 2052. That means I no longer have to look at my annual Social Security statement as my annual reminder of all the money I've earned that I'll never see. Now I get a cool 9 years of Social Security benefits, assuming no one has pushed the retirement date back or eviscerated the program by then. Frankly, I don't care either way. I've rather gotten used to the idea of depending on my financial planner (a great guy named Bill) for my retirement planning rather than the government. I understand Bill.
