I'm trying to run the clock out on my Social Security and start when I'm seventy.
I hope I'm not making a huge mistake by doing that.
I've convinced myself that American tax payers will take pity on an old man who postponed his check for eight years, and they will let me keep the full amount.
On the other hand, when I look at the staggering magnitude of America's unfunded long term liabilities, it's probably just a question of time before the U.S. Treasury starts paying us in BitCoins!
Well I started mine at 64 which was 2 and a half early. The total between what I recd for those years would have taken 12 to make up had I waited. (Something like that. I don’t remember the exact number but for me it made more sense to take it then) And, who’s sure they’re gonna make it to 70? I did and approaching 71 in June. Woo Hoo!
