Angey gets less than $1,000 monthly with her small pension from a school district and Social Security. She said her husband earns a bit more.released last month that showed more than a third of people 65 and older described their financial situation at midyear as worse than it was 12 months before. It was a huge jump from the 13% of adults 65 and older who said the same thing in January.
“Many people are living on a fixed income and have cut back, or are even delaying retirement,” said Kennedy. Kennedy, of AARP Arizona, said spiraling apartment prices in her state have squeezed a lot of older adults out of the rental market.
Other than commissioned salespeople aren’t we all on a fixed income?
Biden brags about the number of jobs he created, but fails to tell you this is the jobs he created. In addition to the data that shows an increase in people working 2-3 jobs.
Thank you AP for shedding light on seniors. We all will be seniors sooner or later. Their voices are quiet and forgotten and overlooked in the chaotic world we live in. Getting older is a reality that people don't want to talk about when they are young. But it is the reality.
Today grocery shopping 5.99 for a head of Romain lettuce. Prices keeping going up and I am sick for those who are already struggling!
So AP was joking a few weeks ago (before the midterm election) when it told us that it had no importance. Nice change of view AP
ThanksBiden
“It’s transitory” so hang in there
If only they stopped voting for centrists that created and sustained this inflation.
Hey, know how to fight inflation? Spend 99 bucks on a digital nft to commemorate the time in Trump's career that he was a fucking cowboy... That will help

Thanks to Bidenflation.
The big problem here is not the Dems or Republicans. It's the fact that the US healthcare industry is profiteering.
It doesn’t have to be this way:
And republicans want to cut their social security and raise their prescription costs. 😑
That's why an indexation! Once in a year designed All over nation's pensions Absorb recession's tides
Wow, and you figured that out all by yourself?
But Biden says this was a win...
I don’t feel bad for them as they are the reason it is this way. If they voted properly then we could have things like universal healthcare and then she wouldn’t have to go back to work!!
I was told inflation was at zero
Lenore Angey never imagined she'd have to go back to work at age 76. With an ailing husband, the retired school lunch worker from Cleveland works part time as a salesperson at a local department store to cover the costs of food and medicine.
