Our children grow up so quickly, that if you can use any portion of your backpay to create memories with or for them, I highly recommend it.

Sadly, I didn't get any back pay and we don't qualify for SSI, BUT with my amount and the suppliment for my son, my husband and I figured out that I will be getting almost the same amount that I made at my job 4 years ago. There really is something to be said for working in the same profession for 25 years!! My 10 year old stated that since I had been working since I was 16 and you can retire after 30 years if you work for our state, then I should tell everyone I'm retired!! I almost peed my pants!
