I think the break even age if you take it at 62 instead of full retirement age is somewhere in your late seventies.
If you die at 71, you lost in the game we all play.
Perhaps but that’s only taking into account money. Not necessarily quality of life and time spent with family or traveling doing something you want.
So, you're going to do that without drawing any SS? My point was waiting until your 70.
And what if your wife lives for another 20 years?
I know a person that claimed anxiety was making her disabled. Got herself on ssi, total bull. Goes on vacations all the time.
It's all new, too. Afghan idiots got the stuff we used to have.
Mental health excuse is a lot easier to get than a real physical disability
She gets the highest of the two checks.
Some of your comments reveal you would know that.
All you need to do is talk to people in a doctor's waiting room.
Vacations help relieve anxiety.
No, I plan to take mine as soon as possible. The point I’m making is not everything revolves around money. Truth be told that pathetic return on my money that I’m getting from Social Security is a travesty. If I had that money myself I could retire much earlier thanks to this socialist government program. I’m locked in at least till 62 possibly even 67 or higher if they so choose to move it, that’s what happens when it’s not really your money anymore.
Yes I realize that I just wanted to see how close my number was to the max when I got my social security estimate
