BTW, If I hadn't planned on future retirement, my two sons (X 'r and Y'r ) would be up to their necks in student loans . Two full college expenses without scholarships ( out of state and not jocks ) worth a minimum of $225,000 after tax dollars .
Well done. But am i to understand that the reason you are entitled to your social security, is that if the government had not charged you that money, then you would have it now in the bank, since you also had to fund your kids college?
There are many people in the world who don't have their parents pay for their college. While that was great of you, maybe it would have done your kids good to take on that added responsibility, and you could have kept your $225,000. Then you would not have to ever worry about getting your illegally taken taxes back.
