When do we actually become seniors? That varies, depending who we ask.
Is it age 50, when all the AARP ads come to our mailbox? Maybe it’s age 60, when we can get food assistance through the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) or receive Meals on Wheels deliveries. Is it 62, when we can start to collect some of our Social Security? If we’re taking a Gallup Poll, 65 is the starting senior age.
How about age 65, when we need to sign up for Medicare or pay a penalty later if we don’t?
