Regarding SS, that will be bankrupt long before I am ever entitled to get my money back from them.

Right now we are coming out ahead between $100-$200 a month, and it's all going into savings. Things are picking up with this work from home job I started a few months back, so I hope to be more ahead by the end of this year. Our children are all in school, so we are past the child care years. Not having to pay those expenses will make a huge difference in your budget. Like you, I have some serious doubts about SS being around when I retire.
