Social Security Matters

Dear Rusty: Things have gone good for me until now. I got a job and have enjoyed going back to work after being retired. But I just got some bad news - a letter from Social Security saying I owe them $17,000 because when I went back to work, I earned more than allowed in 2021. They never mentioned that I told them I was going back to work! They now say they can’t pay me benefits in 2022 because I am working. Good job SSA, since I told you when I went back to work! Anyway, I can’t repay them all at once, I’m lucky to buy gas to get groceries. They list items for a waiver, but I am not sure what is best for me. I was planning on moving for health reasons, but if I paid them all at once I have nothing left for the move. I just started my research on how to handle this but hoped you would have some insight.

I hope everyone has a very happy Thanksgiving Day. Of all the American holidays, Thanksgiving is perhaps the most special and spiritual of our American holidays. It is a time that reminds us to be thankful. But did you know that having an attitude of gratitude is something that God commands? 1 Thessalonians 5:16-18 says: “Rejoice always, pray constantly, give thanks in everything; for this is God’s will for you in Christ Jesus.”

Many like the idea of a “final judgment.” We think others should get punished for all the bad stuff they have done—but not themselves. A Righteous God must punish sinners, especially murderers, rapists, child molesters, and crooked politicians! The list could go on. So most believe that there needs to be a day of judgment.
