What is the advantage of making charitable contributions (CCs) from one's IRA over just writing checks?
Thanks. If I read your answer correctly, there is a benefit to contributing from your IRA as opposed to simply writing a check ONLY if you are NOT itemizing. RIght?

What eventually happens when my Medicare premium is MORE than my Social Security benefit?
@Aganju Thanks, but the bracket of IRMAA I am in has not changed since they (correctly) kicked me into a higher bracket.

@Bob Baerker Thanks. I thought that mightpossibly be the case. However, I still owe them nearly $1,000 from 2019 when they undercharged me because they calculated the IRMAA using the wrong data. Oh well .....

A friend wants to send me money and buy gift cards... should I accept this?
This is probably not who you think it is. I received something similar years ago and ignored it because it did not jibe with the person's (a former work colleague) writing style. The next day, I (and others} received an abject apology; my colleague had been hacked.
