The Fidelity survey also sheds light on the fact that health care costs are more expensive for 57% of boomers than they anticipated and 43% say Medicare covers less than they thought. With the growing uncertainty about the future of Medicare, those concerns are likely to become even greater.

I love London so much. So much.
Did you know that London has the lowest level of ethnic violence of any city of comparable size in the world?
Multiculturalism has in fact worked here. They just don’t want it to be true because we happen to have a Muslim mayor.
