On claiming SS at 62
-
I'm 62 and still working full time, so it doesn't make sense for me. Apart from anything else, I'd get taxed up the ass.
Obviously, I didn't watch the video, but I can't see how it would be a good idea now.

Obviously. None of the cool kids here watch videos.

I didn't watch the video because I'm working full time.
Snark aside, am I wrong? If I work until I'm 65 rather than retire at 62, I get roughly $50K more per year, based on pension, 401K and SS.
I was only joking

An income interferes with SS between 62 and full retirement age of 67. The video assumes one is retired.

You're a bunch of
luckylazy buggers retiring at that age. Who do you think are, the French?No wonder you need immigrants to do your work for you.

Yeah, that’s why you’re here.

I took it at 70 - and didn't watch the video. One thing to consider is that in 7 years they'll likely cut the benefit for everyone by about 25% as funds will have run out. They'll have to cut it again a few years later. Of course, congress could fix it - but that's not going to happen.
Actually, I've seen a few videos that anticipate that the government will do what was done in Argentina, Greece, Poland and a couple of other countries is that once the national debt is sufficiently out of control, the government will nationalize pensions, 401Ks and IRAs - to make things better for all of us.
