Every thread of this type is loaded with vitriol from the Gen X bunch. I've paid maximum limits on social security and other related a taxes for 20 years and pretty close to max for 30 years. Every dime was disbursed to pay OTHER people.
I turn 50 at the end of August. I fully expect to work for another 20 years. I would be bored to tears in a retired state.
*Then don't move to Florida :)
