Social Security??

I drove a fellow single mom to the social security office. I waited patiently, and of course I looked through all the pamphlets. GUESS what I learned?

I learned that because I had been married over ten years, I will be able to file social security on my X husband. He will never know about it (according to the document) and he can't do anything about it. Apparently, the "powers that be" think if you dealt with ten years of crap, you must deserve to get retirement help from the jerk. My paraphrasing. :)

Still young and not thinking about social security? That's okay, you will get older.....and chances are that the X hasn't paid correct (if any) child support so he still owes you. (The laws are NOT held up to court orders in OK.) You EARNED the right and privilege to file social security from your 10 years of hard labor!

The best revenge is not actual revenge but those little things that HE can't change and it happens anyway.... and when he marries a female that's worse than he is... :D

Check out your state's laws, etc because they may vary from mine. Oh, and you must not be CURRENTLY married to anyone.. it's okay if you had another marriage and divorce ( in their opinion) before you file. I seriously DOUBT I will ever marry again. "Once burnt shame on you, twice burnt shame on me...." I learned my lessons about letting some male have too much power and control over me and my life/money, heart, etc.
