💰 This guy says you should start taking Social Security at age 62.
He walks through the real math on claiming at 62 vs 67 vs 70 using a clear example: roughly $18k/year at 62, $24k at full retirement age (67), or $36k at 70. He shows the break-even points and reminds us that the average life expectancy here in the US is 79 years old.
It’s not just about getting the bigger monthly check — it depends on your health, how long you live, and your personal situation.
It’s such a practical reminder that these big decisions need to be run with your own numbers, not just generic advice. It’s also wise to run this past a financial adviser.
Would you claim Social Security early (at 62), at full retirement age, or wait until 70? What’s your reasoning?
When the time comes, I’ll be collecting it at 62.
