Man getting old is a full time job! Maybe men are not as bothered by being old. Women over 50 have a hard time gaining employment and staying employed. As a young person I heard someone say,”We better sever her before she drops dead at the desk.” It was my job to write the payroll so also the severances check for that person. Later I got carpal tunnel so badly I couldn’t raise either arm. Residual damage have no feeling in my arms and hands. My employer paid a decent workers compensation settlement. Now I’m sorry I didn’t get lifetime compensation as not able to ever work again. The reality is your budget is built on 45000 a year. Around a net 800 a week. When you’re no longer able to work you have $240.00 a week. No benefits so you’re in agony but have no medical insurance it left with your job. Your affected body part is covered. Somewhere on the books if anything more happens to my arms workers comp supposed to cover it. For almost 2 years I had a job doing support for a diy security camera company. When they discovered my true age they fired me immediately. Lied on my papers because knew they’d never hire a person my age. Oh well the reason I started the post was to ask if everyone else has the issue of no money for anything…
