Today I discuss another fall in revenue for IBM, what the ZERO increase in social security checks means for retirees and "Plan B's" for retirement savings.

I review current market news as well as the 14th straight quarterly fall in IBM's revenue, whether or not the decline in commodities is a buying opportunity and struggles for franchises like McDonalds. I question the pressing issue of US and Russian involvement in Syria. I also discuss:

• The governments decision to not increase social security payments.
• Dividend achiever stocks and ETFs as a step to financial freedom.
• Pros and cons of the typical "Plan B's" in retirement such as working longer or paying off the mortgage early.
