There's this tricky provision that says if you save your money and don't piss it off invested it wisely we'll double your cost of Part B and charge you for Part D.  IMSAA I think it's called.  <snip>

Tax exempt income.

State and municipal bonds are tax free to encourage people to buy them.  The state is able to borrow money at lower rates to build schools, roads and infrastructure, and you the earn tax free income, albeit at a lower rate than other investments. 

BUT. SSA, when computing your income, adds your tax free income back into your AGI so they can charge you more. They call it Modified Adjusted Gross Income.

Ain't that a gas. ;D

With the 1.3% COLA increase I'll be clearing an extra $24 a month, or $288 per year. That's 2 months principal payments on my ATV, and I only have to come up with the interest which would be under $40 for 2 months.
