It is getting scary out there. Many people are losing their job. The economy is bad and there are not many openings if you do not have a job.
Lots of people are hanging on to their job as long as possible, even when they have continuing health problems.
If you were working your job and were in bad health, and then lost your job, you should file for Social Security Disability. A layoff or job termination does not prevent you from getting Social Security Disability. You must prove your health condition is keeping you from full time work at this time, however, this is not necessarily a high burden if you have ongoing health problems.
You have paid into the Social Security System all your life so you are entitled to seek disability benefits if you are no longer able to work. The money paid to you from Social Security Disability is your money.
