SENIOR FORUM There's No Need to Fret By TOM COLLINS Q-My wife says I always bragged too much about how much money I had or how much made. So with retirement coming on, she contends I'm bragging again about what we'll have and that we'll wind up living off our children.

We have $25,000 invested in savings and we'll get $350 in combined Social Security while I get a pension of $150. We own our home. Just how poor are we? See if you can set us A-You are rich. Tell your wite to find something else to fret about. As it is with budgets, savings, habits and most other things of life, people of retirement age won't switch gears on their security thinking.

And it's the time to switch. Why you are rich: On your $25,000 savings you are probably getting 5 per cent or roughly $100 a month You'll get a total of $500 retirement income, which in effect means five times $25,000 in savings, or $125,000. You can't get your hands on that $1 25,0 0 0, plus the $2 5,0 0 0 your lifetime to keep paying you the equivalent of 5 per cent. For all practical purposes, you and your wife will have the $1 2 5, 0 0, plus the $2 5 00 0 savings, plus maybe $25,000 on your home. That's the same as $175,000 which is hardly hay.

Then, at age 65, you get various tax deductions and you get Medicare. If more people facing retirement would regard their income this way--most wealthy people always regard their wealth in terms of what income it produces, not as cash-they'll realize they are pretty well off.
