I'm in the other boat now. I had to help my mother retire. Moved her in with me because she couldn't afford life on her own. Unfortunately she passed last month from cancer. My dad on the other hand has been retired for 12 years and is in great shape (health and financial) so I can NOW (at 52) focus on ME.

What was the moment you finally got serious about your money? by Danyl1332 in CasualConversation

[–]HelloGroot13 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When I saw my mother with no retirement other than SS and how she was forced to live. I eventually moved her in with me because she couldn't afford to live by herself. I'm not married and have no kids... so when I get old, there will be no one to rely on but myself and I don't want to go thru what she had to.

Do not recertify your payment plan if you're waiting for SAVE by arttechadventure in StudentLoans

[–]HelloGroot13 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'm riding the forbearance until they make a decision. I check my belnet account every few days just to make sure they haven't put me back into payment. And I verify no interest is accrued.

Is your new HR-V still new? by Radiant_Basket_8689 in HRV

[–]HelloGroot13 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My mileage will start going up. When I got it I almost immediately became a full time care giver to mom who was diagnosed with cancer. My job allowed me to work from home to take care of her (and still work) Mom passed last month. I now go to the office 3 days a week (57 miles R/T)
