I’m firmly retired now.
I’m envious.
Still working. Self-employed 40 yrs. (sole proprietorship)
I’m getting ready.
My friend warns me, “don’t wait too long”.
All the best!

I put a ‘second’ on that.
Once I hit 66+8, I looked at my payout AND which political force was in the lead.
I decided to wait for the election results.
Last November, my monthly amount was barely enough to pay bills so I thought I would wait.
Then Trump started promising his no-tax list and I went for it on Jan 1, 2025.
Wife is still working and I don’t need any supplemental.
That contingency is baked in for when she retires.
Good to go!
