So I’ll be 60 and 8 months old when I hit my 30 year anniversary. I recently moved everything to L2045 and bumped up my contribution.
Somebody recently told me that as long as I’m 60 that working an extra 8 months to hit my 30 year anniversary wouldn’t matter in terms of retirement benefits. If this is true and I can get out 8 months earlier that would be awesome. I’m at my breaking point at this job. Knowing that retirement is in sight is the only thing that keeps me going.

My ash tree is likely the only remaining survivor in my neighborhood. We had 1/3 of it removed a few years ago due to ash borer damage but we managed to save the rest with systemic imidacloprid treatment. I’m seeing conflicting reports about whether or not imidacloprid passes on to the pollen/nectar. I do not want to harm the bees (unless it’s carpenter bees. I hate carpenter bees!)
I bought more treatment will not apply if it’s going to harm local honey bees. Is there any other economical and environmental method to treat for emerald ash borer? I found one crawling in my truck yesterday.
