So here is what I want to know. Let's assume 1341 min benefits is sign by Biden. Currently, I'm 63 FRA 66 and 8 months. I plan to file SSB at age 64. Now for me to received min benefits of 1341 That would mean my FRA benefit amount would have to 1871. I also assuming that SSA will raise my FRA to meet Biden SSB min. Currently, my FRA is 1579. 1341 would be the amount I would get if I file at age 62 but I'm 63 now. My question is and I have done the math at age 64 my SSB 1537 and now that is without the 2022 Cola. Do you agree?

So yes you can save money working retail depends on your spending habits.

In most cities in California and mainly San Francisco and the Bay Area. SS,SSDI,SSI monthly benefits will not even cover the Rent for an average Apt to keep a roof over ones head. Rent in this area is about $2,500.00 a month up to $4,000.00 per month. Maybe the Cola raise should be set,by the cost of living and rents where Simone depending on SS, SSDI lives. The higher the rents to keep a roof over one’s head,the higher the Cola adjustment? Or a renter’s allowance,added on top of the monthly benefits to cover rent,depending on monthly rent. A lot like Section 8 housing tailored for retired seniors and disabled? Or a federal Rent Control law just for those depending on fixed incomes like SS,SSDI,SSI
