Early retirement 29 days away

15 days and early retirement. Can't wait until I write my letter to MModal to tell them what I think of them--will not do any good and will probably give them a good laugh for the day. Used to love this job, but now HATE it. Social Security with penalty and working 25 hours making more money and will be the end of 65 hour work weeks to make ends meet. VIRTUAL RETIREMENT PARTY!!!!!! ...

Thinking about taking early retirement and just working part time. I understand I can make a little over 14,000 without reduction in social security benefits. I would however have to purchase private insurance until I am old enough for Medicare. Anyone done this or have any input on it? ...

Well, after last thursday night such bad dictators and made no money--so just getting min wage, I finally retired 10 working days early. So sad when you can make more money working 25 hours a week in a grocery store as a customer service rep, cashier, and working on self-scans. Such a relief to get away from this company. Hope you all have a good summer and I am out of here. ...

Does anyone know what happens to our 401K? ...

I'm not saying to stay on at a horrible job that you hate. Do something else if you need to, but retirement is not always as great as we've always told it would be. When I look around me, I see all the retired people wishing they had something to do, somewhere to go, and a little bit of money to spend. Their brains don't get a very good workout. Stay active! Don't retire unless you have to. ...

Just wondering if they offer a retirement packet. ...

MTs: I presently work for an outsource company which has sold its MT division to another outsource company. I will be 62 yo come January. I am to the point now of seriously thinking about taking early retirement and only working PT 20 hours a week. If I do that I would actually be making more money that way than I would be working the 50+ hours a week I do now. The thing that I am concerned about is I would have no health insurance unless I pay for it out of my own poc ...

Has anyone faced this problem? Worked at home many years in radiation oncology then because of by out from hospital I was transfered to medical transcription department for training. When I showed up for training I was told that they "didn't quite know what to do with me". Showed up for daily training only to be sent home because volume was low. Eventually, realized that they didn't want to train me so I decided to retire. Is there any recourse? ...

My minimal wage MT job is offering benefits and retirement account. Wouldn't getting benefits not to mention retirement account eat further into the small-sum paycheck I get now so that it's questionable whether I can pay for food or rent? The way they offer benefits, you think they pay a "normal" amount of money. By the way, is it required to enroll in healthcare benefits now that there's a new healthcare law? ...

People talk about being on a fixed income as if it's a bad thing. After 4 pay cuts in 10 years and now facing a 3 cpl cut plus our annual Christmas pay cut, I would absolutely LOVE to be on a fixed income! ...

Is there a mandatory retirement age for employees and/or ICs working remotely in HIM? If so, is it federal, or does it differ by state? Need input on this with particular regard to Ohio and Florida, please. Thanks so much. ...

I transcribed for over 40 years, and when I do test now, I usually test up to 95%, and that is just not good enough even for a company I previously worked for that went outsourcing after freezing us out of work. I really loved transcribing and would do it again in a heartbear if I could get a good, steady part-time source. Any suggestions or recommendations? Thank you. I am in Glendale, AZ if that will help. ...

I'm thinking of going part time at my job so I can do something else on the side. However, I won't be able to have a 401K or PTO. I get medical and dental benefits through my husband's work, so that doesn't matter. For any part timers out there, what do you do to save for retirement? ...

Here are some pictures of that beautiful little island I have chosen to live out the rest of my days. Since you wanted to spend your remaining days there too, I thought you would want to see the pictures. As you can see there are plenty of huts to choose from, I'm not sure which kind I want yet, but I am favoring one of those huts that are in the water. I have also sent a picture of the island from an aerial view so you can see how small it is. I heard Bill gates gave aw ...

I've heard for maybe 10 years now that right now, 2010, is when vast numbers of MTs were supposed to hit retirement age and quit work. What is retirement age? I don't want to retire, but when does a person really need to retire even if they don't want to? ...

My aunt is 63, still working, uncle 66, still working PT but receiving full SS benefits. He has recently been diagnosed with cancer. If he dies, and my aunt keeps working (she is working for the medical insurance), will she receive his death benefit, and will it be the same amout. She is worried about this, well in advance (we hope) and I just wanted to ease her mind a little. Thank you. ...

Hi ladies, I have no work again today, so I had some time to do this. I live in the North and as I look out my window all I see is snow (measured in feet), and I really hate the winter. I thought it would cheer me up to post more pics of our retirement home. I must admit I did get a little carried away, and there will probably be another post with even more pics. I have included in these pics different huts, water, beach and inland, but I could not resist posting some pi ...

getting none of my usual primary, None. And already this a.m. NJA. Davenport sincere LOL, blahblahblah. this is rediculous ...

Waiting with baited breath for someone to repost all of the SS pays early testimonies. cracking me up - its always good to laugh uncontrollably. anyone ever read a P&P manual? ignorance is bliss. ...

since I found out last night that I am having unexpected overnight houseguests tonight. In-laws suddenly don't have room....Not only is my house a mess from entertaining both xmas eve and xmas while trying to get in work which was nearly impossible because there wasn't any, but I was low on food, my son had a doc's appt for a cough that he has had for 3 weeks now, and we are expecting a snowstorm tomorrow. I ran around like a wild woman al ...

When I looked at the status, there were a handful of accounts listed. Put in my Remedy ticket and messed around for a cpl hours..I've had work ever since and when I check the status there are a ton of accounts listed. Not that I am complaining, just seems weird ...

I have my banking alerts set up so I get texted when there is activity in the account, and I woke up to a text saying I had a direct deposit! Payday a day early! (yes I did check the payroll calendar) Unfortunately, my next pay period will suck big time as there is no work and I doubt there will be all weekend. ...

Why isn't April showing up in the Archives? I don't see anything from about May 1-5 either. ...

According to my info, my only acct has asked the Accentus not to transcribe. QRS is on vacation. No real info from anyone else. Is this something that happens frequently at this company? You are just told to stop working & hang on? Obviously, people can't afford to be that casual. ...

force yourself to get up early on a freezing cold morning, make coffee, boot everything up, start all your programs, and then.......... NJA. ...

How do you go about getting early SS?? How early can you get it. I am in my 50's so is that too early? I remember my mom did that but she was older and she still worked 3 days a week and as long as she kept under a certain amount she was allowed to do both. ...
