This summer, they are trying to go to the Amazon rain forest, to work with an indigenous tribe on conservation efforts. It's an amazing, once in a lifetime learning opportunity for the Scouts, but expensive. Everyone who works at the lot are volunteers, so 100% of the money earned (after expenses) goes...

Dear Rusty: In a recent article about Medicare's "Income-Related Monthly Adjustment Amount" (IRMAA) and how IRMAA affects Social Security taxes, you described which income gets included in the IRMAA calculation. You said it is "your combined income from all sources, including 50 % of the SS benefits you receive."
