I didn't think you were that old. Taking it early if you don't have to...not usually a good idea.

63 when the money starts rolling in.

Breakeven year (or, "money lost year" if you look at it that way)
will be 2034 if I waited until full retirement age.

2034

78 years old

Ummmm... I'll start taking it now. Gimme gimme gimme.

Make it rain, gub'mint!

Good morning funny Bear


Sorry about the crappy weather forecast.

 

[AttyPops]

Ummmm... I'll start taking it now.

My brother was ?35/36? when he died, didn't collect a dime.

So yeah, the present value thing counts.

But they reduce it quite a bit if you take it early.

Not that I figure I'll be around that long anyway, but who knows, right?

Yes, it's reduced. But it will take (me) 15 years to actually realize a cumulative "loss"
than if I waited until 66.5 .

I can live with that. Have to now. Just signed a pact.

Oooops... yes, you ARE able to stop payments until a later time.

:: thinking ::

Nah!

Nah!

But, you are required to give them a concrete date for it to re-start and
it is unable to be changed and/or stopped again. Kind of like a "remorse"
thing. (From how I understand it, anyway.)

Next up:

MEDICARE

...and a "medi-gap" policy. Or whatever it's called in your neck of the woods.

Relax, not for 2 more years.

But just think... no more annual ACA rants and raves!!! End of an era.

(ACA will still be alive and well, though.)
