When we think of retirement, a pastoral, no stress, idyllic life is what usually comes to mind. But inflation can be a dream buster for many. Sure, you've saved what you think is a sufficient amount, but life...and life span may interrupt those expectations.

In this episode of GettingBy-The Podacast, we meet Granvel Smith, A retired coat and tie banking professional, who is now delivering sandwiches to help in his retirement. Which shows that even money pros can get surprised after a long career.

October 07, 2018 Medicine, A Job, And Not Enough Insurance...Part 2, The Dentist
In part 2 of looking at the underinsured, we peer at dental necessities, and how this is often overlooked in health discussions. Once again we visit with medical professionals, and a patient at the Pathway to Health event in Fort Worth, TX. More than 6,700 people lined up at a horse exposition hall to be seen by volunteer medical prefessionals. Because dental insurance is less common than health insurance, the make shift dentist chairs were kept very busy.
Photo is of dental patient Jasmine Tate standing in front of the dental clinic.

September 25, 2018 Medicine, A Job, And Not Enough Insurance...Part 1
In this episode, we hear from three working people who are either underinsured, or who can’t afford the premiums. These people frequently put off minor issues, until they become too big to ignore.

We also hear from a doctor, and support staff for a three day event that provided over 6,700 underserved patients some degree of medical relief without costs. Pathway to Health is a program of the Seventh Day Adventist Church. Every six months they open up a temporary medical facility in some convention, or exposition hall in cities across the country. This episode was recorded at their event in Fort Worth, Texas.
