hausdok Posted November 7, 2011 Report Posted November 7, 2011 Well, Since I officially turned 60 and entered geezerdom in September, I've been trying to figure out how I'm gonna live on what I get from my military retirement and social security when I finally pull the plug. By then gas will probably be about $8 a gallon and taxes on real estate will require one to hold up a bank every other week in order to make the end-of-year bill from the city. I was thinking that if Yung and I invest wisely, we could each purchase and move our domiciles from overpass to overpass on a rotating basis. Waddaya think? ONE TEAM - ONE FIGHT!!! Mike
John Kogel Posted November 7, 2011 Report Posted November 7, 2011 You'll want to lock it to a lamp post before turning in for the night, eh? Easy to steal with the people still in it. Yikes. [:-bigeyes When I get too old to pay bills, I'll be anchored offshore somewhere. Boarding ladder stowed away for the night.
hausdok Posted November 8, 2011 Author Report Posted November 8, 2011 Yeah, Definitely need to lock it down. Gotta pimp that scooter too! ONE TEAM - ONE FIGHT!!! Mike
Jim Morrison Posted November 8, 2011 Report Posted November 8, 2011 Home inspectors don't retire, Mike. We die with our boots on.
David Meiland Posted November 8, 2011 Report Posted November 8, 2011 Forget retirement, everyone's old as hell now and what kids there are won't mine salt, you gotta mine your own.

Denray Posted November 9, 2011 Report Posted November 9, 2011 This is my retirement! How come there is no box to check for subscribing to this?
Jim Morrison Posted November 9, 2011 Report Posted November 9, 2011 I should have mentioned that I believe I originally got that line from Doctor Shock, though it is practically a cliche by now.
John Kogel Posted November 9, 2011 Report Posted November 9, 2011 Home inspectors don't retire, Mike. We die with our boots on. Unless you left your boots at the door. How about some of us die with our booties on? []
Marc Posted November 9, 2011 Report Posted November 9, 2011 The only reason why words like 'die' and 'dead' are in our vocabularly is because we're emotional creatures. 'Death' is nothing, doesn't even deserve a name. Words like that only serve to divert our attention away from that which truly does exists and is important...Life. Marc

My dog, Dorey understands life is a pile of soft leaves and warm sun. The occasional red squirrel is icing on the cake.
