Medicare A is free! Medicare B does cost, but not much and the first time
you have to use it, you would find out it is a lot cheaper inthe long run.
Suplimental retirement insurance also cost, but tome, it has been well wotyh
the premiums.

I still don't understand why, if you qualify for Social Security, you don't
at least have Medicare A.
