You are on target with these of reported stats. Not sure how they were measured or who gave/took the survey. As already pointed out, until I find out more about this research, it's up in the air for me. In contrast, really high mortgage debt is highly controlled and shared by the lending institutions.
Q
Yesterday I saw a similar stat on U.S. federal employees who missed paychecks in the shutdown. The basic assertion intuitively makes sense to me, but I don't know how they measure to get to a precise number like 46. My guess is they poll what they consider a statistically significant sample, and go from there.
EDIT FOR OBLIGATORY RETIREE STUFF: My wife and I are off to see our first grandson this morning, Pennsylvania roads permitting.
A heads-up for you California retirees - there is a little known tax law in CA that allows people over 55 to sell their primary residence and transfer their property tax base to the new residence.
Not too bad!!!
Did you put on larger rotors and calipers?Spent 4 hours roasting coffee and 2 doing a brake swap. All is well,,,,,,,,,,,,I hope.

If you live slightly below your means you would have more money when you die than you have now, I'm planning to leave little or none.

Here's a great way to spend your days, shoveling snow!
I have a big snow blower but I figure the exercise will do me good.
Still -3 with a wind chill of -24 at 10am. Not sure how bad it was overnight
Just rotors, pads and caliper brackets. It's a popular mod for the Gen VII. They come with big piston calipers and small rotors making for a not so linear brake pedal.Did you put on larger rotors and calipers?
I like the way you think!!There is something in:
1. Live slightly below your means during your working years.
2. Spend your savings during retirement.
3. When you die, have your last check bounce.......
Of course, it's all in the timing.....
This week it's the cold & wind that's got everything shut down. So cold the salt won't melt the snow and so windy when they plow a road it just drifts back in as soon as they are done. Today was the lowest high temp (-4) in 25 years. I'll be in FL next weekWhat is all that white stuff?????
I moved from Michigan to Dallas in 1982. Graduated from college and wanted to move anywhere they didn't have snow shovels.
Here, one inch of snow shuts down the city.
Lest we forget-
Retirement allows for an afternoon bong toke and some delightfully raw Tull over DQ-10’s with Benny. This is a good thing after 43 years of engineering toil. I’ve been looking forward to it for 43 years as well.

And it gets a lot of sun. That’s Benny our Cavalier King Charles. He’ll be a year old next week.What's that furry thing attached to your leg? If that's a Poang ottoman watch out, they're known pet magnets.
