Health Issues at the Forefront

I was unable to complete more than half of my usual weight workout at the gym today. During the unintended final set, I felt completely winded. When I stood up, I felt dizzy and almost lost consciousness. I approached the cardio portion of the workout with caution. I was able to complete it without incident.

Typical Healthy Hottie
I have been observing a rapid decline in my weight workouts for the past three weeks. I have experienced increasing difficulty, but I was always able to finish. Now, I am at a loss. There are obvious health issues at play. And, I am no longer certain that I can survive into my seventies.

The probability that I have suffered one or more minor cardiac events (i.e., heart attacks) is relatively high. I am probably just days away from the "big one." Yet, I am not seeking any medical attention. Heck, I currently have no health insurance.

I will most likely have to seek out the Medicaid option, since I already qualify for coverage. There appears to be very little time left for me to ruminate on the "asset recovery" provision. In the meantime, I will have to consider a few revisions to the "master plan." I must:
  • officially retire at age 62 years, if I live that long. I will be able to collect a modest monthly supplemental income.
  • rapidly seek out ways to hide a substantial amount of my liquid assets. This will suffice as a " rainy day" fund.
  • consider changes to my life-style with the realization that I may have less than 20 years of time remaining.
Life-style changes ... where to begin? What to do ... what to do ...

Ol ' Lavahead Mini-Update®
Effective immediately, I will be consuming a glass of wine daily in the evenings as part of my lifestyle changes. The wine is for medicinal purposes only. Baha! Ha! Ha! Haaa!
