In the USA, social security (federal) can start as early as 62. You can choose to wait on taking it till anytime after that, the earlier you take it, the lower your monthly #. Private pensions are a different thing, I retired from school teaching at 60, after 35 years at that point I took all of my pension and placed it into two tax-free annuities to pay me every month.
As far as senior benefits are concerned, public transit is free within the Philadelphia metro area, interstate travel is about 1/2 of the regular adult fare. Most supermarkets have a seniors day where if you show your card you get up to 20% off your bill, the same in most restaurants. All in all, senior benefits here are pretty good, I'm glad I've been around long enough to qualify, I guess it beats the alternative.

So just out of curiosity what made a 35 years service teacher in the US decide to become a City fan?
Have you ever been to a match at The Etihad or Maine Road ?
Do you wear any City apparel on your free journeys within the Philly metro area,and if you do,does it ever get commented on by other members of the public ?
Just interested to find out if City's profile is as high in the US as it is now in the UK and Europe.

Easy peasy. 4 crowns (5/-) per pound, therefore 8 half crowns = £1/-/-.
12 pounds x 8 = 96, plus 2 bob left over.

So did you work it out manually (in your head) or did you have electronic help??

Arsenal are funny, I wonder if they have decided to go down the Liverpool route and pick a fight with us to boost their own support And sense of purpose. They aren’t and never have been our rival, our interest in their results are usually to hope they beat the red x 2.

Hope Arsenal beat Liverpool, Chelsea and United. They aren't a rival.

At least they won’t beat us in the semifinal this season, should we reach it.

Neither are United,given that they are currently 22points behind us!!!
