Like it or not, SS is a Ponzi scheme that we are FORCED to fund.

Your money is gone. It helped to pay off 33 years’ worth of old people’s needs. Furthermore, any surpluses were used for other government functions. There is no “money in the bank” with SS.
yes, I know that. It just pisses me off. If I was given HALF that money, and put it into my 403(b) retirement account with TIAA-CREF, I’d be in a much better place and might could possibly retire at the age of 65 or so... now? I’ll be lucky to retire at 75.
They don’t owe you jack.

Yes, I know. It sucks, and it pisses me off.
