Just the first couple of notes of "In the Arms of an Angel" start the tears welling. My husband is a cruel man, he has been watching the Hallmark channel all month-every sad Christmas story ever made shows up there. It's so bad my cheeks are chapped from the tears.

I covered the "Occupy" groups in my senior economics class the other day. While I did point out that I agree with some of the things that they were protesting, I found it ironic that they were doing their protesting using numerous bits and pieces of corporate offerings. I had found a lesson plan with discussion questions that were open ended enough to allow them to discuss their feelings and beliefs about the protests. We actually had a good discussion that day.

I teach high school economics and one of the first things I tell my students is that "Social Security will not be there for you and if it is, it will not be the way it is now, so start planning for your retirement the minute you get a job." They hear it at least 4 times during the course. I explain how the program was set up, what happened to the "lock box" and why they will not receive any payments themselves even though they are and will continue to pay in.

I'm 54 and have nothing saved for retirement either, but they can cap SS at those older than 55 and I will be thrilled.
