Retirement planning

We visited Jack's investment banker today. We giggle when we call him that, since the total portfolio is worth less than a month of income, but it sounds good.

We talked about Jack's options with this retirement account and social security.

"Well, I advise people to retire when they are ready, not for the Social Security," said Mr. Broker Man.

Jack explained that there were physical reasons he was thinking about semi-retirement and yada yada yada. "Besides," he said, looking at me.

"She's my retirement plan. You're just the backup."
