Ida Mae :30
Ida Mae (:30) In 1935 FDR signed the Social Security Act, providing all Americans with a supplement to their retirement savings. The rest was up to us. Ida Mae Fuller knew that, she was the first to receive a monthly Social Security check. The amount? $22.54. Chances are that couldn't pay all of the bills, even in the 40's. Good thing she had other savings, because she lived to be 100 years old. Here's hoping we can all afford to live as long as Ida. Choose to Save because that's the way it is.
