Funny i rarely look at ncka these days and right when i'm thinking do i need to come out of retirement this one pops up

Only input i have is

1) take the health insurance part very seriously. I spent 48 years watching american families go bankrupt to save their children. Hospital bills + pharmaceuticals that cost hundreds of dollars per dose. We worked w one family who lost two kids and two homes, brutal to watch. Was the#1 cause of bankruptcy in the usa not sure where it stands now

The old saying you can't take it with you is now bullshit and it raises stark questions about how to protect your family

2) if you fall off the physical wellbeing horse brush yourself off and hop back up soon as you can and ride it hard. None of it comes easy after a certain number of decades

Thanks for your inputs bluekayak.  I intend to sign up with the company health plan and keep my Medicare as a supplement plan.

Got the offer letter from KLA yesterday and accepted their offer.  Will going back to work in 2 weeks from now.

Congratulations brother, I’m glad you got the job!
I am guessing that I’m the youngest one to contribute to this thread so feel free to take it with a grain of salt, but if you are able to pay back any SS you have received so far( your opinion 1) and push back your retirement age it might make your contributions higher when you are ready to re-retire.

Thanks for setting the bar high ,

Aloha,

Thanks for your opinion Isao. I am discussing with my wife about this but if we decided with option #1,  we need to pay back 20+ thousands and that is not a small amount!

Welcome to NCKA Jay 

Did they require and use descenders?

Depended on the depths of the surveyed area, most of the fish don't need to be released using the descenders.  There are several "floaters" but they're "rescued" and sent back down.

Sorry to hear about the long distance release fish.  Thanks for the report Charles.

What a great day in Point Lobo area!  We caught and released over 600 fishes between 9 volunteers.  We caught lots of Blue, Gofer, China, Black&Yellow, Vermillion, Copper, Treefish, Olive, Whitefish,  Cabbie,  Lingcod, Yellowtail, Sand Dab.  Can't wait until next trip!

Got my boarding pass
