I retired at age 62, 7 years ago. My wife retired 2 years after me also at age 62. As of today, we have not touched a dime of our retirement money. We are not having any issues at all living on nothing but our Social Security. Being debt free is what makes that happen. People get in trouble because they over spend. We paid off our house just before I retired. By the way, I'll be 69 in a week and I'm having the time of my life. Work hard, save your money and retire early. It's my 3 step plan for happiness.

Age 62 is not an early retirement tho 😬
@bernie9728 Жыл бұрын
@@ddfelder2 "Early" is a relative word. When I say retired early I'm talking about "before my full retirement age" as far as Social Security is concerned. My "full retirement age was 66, so I retired 4 years early. I suppose you could consider retiring early as before you are able to go on Social Security, but in general terms, taking your Social Security before your full retirement age, is considered as "retiring early". When I looked up the definition of "early retirement", this is what came up: The common definition of early retirement is any age before 65 - that's when you may qualify for Medicare benefits. Currently, men retire at an average age of 64, while for women the average retirement age is 62. 1,2. Retiring before the traditional age of 65 can feel exciting and give you something to look forward to.

I'm also retired (at 64), now at Full Retirement Age (FRA) of 67+2 mos. I got a letter from SSA that says I can keep the whole amount even if I wanted to start working again. Thing is, I paid all of my debts, car loan, credit cards before retiring and I'm still running out of money. So I'm going back to work, full-time employment (remote since I used to be an IT guy), and moving back to California (currently in Alabama). No worries, though. Both CA and AL do not tax social security benefits.

I retired at 58. Having low expenses helped me to pay off debt early. I learned to live somewhat frugally ...no TV, no expensive cell phone, rarely eat out, no fancy car or clothes just things that are quality and last. Rather than buying a new truck i bought a new engine which was WAY CHEAPER. All these are choices that I truly enjoy because it gives me freedom to do other things like travel, hike, bike, explore. Its fun to live among locals without huge overhead costs. Next winter I will rent out my home while I travel..this pays for utilities and gives a family a place to stay during my absence for several months plus it provides me some pocket money. KEEPING IN MIND ITS NOT ABOUT MONEY...as no one knows how long GOD wants each of us here on earth.

I have a military pension and will be 62 soon, I will definitely retire from my current job and start taking my social security benefit. Though I will lose some money but not everyone is capable of living past 75, 76, and I have not stopped working since I was 13. Life is too short, and I am not going to let the last 10-15 years of my life pass me by. I will retire in my country, Vietnam, and with 4,000 dollars a month, I will live well while enjoying life.

My SS is estimated to be just over 3000 a month. That's well above avg I know. That's with leaving the 9 to 5 job early and not working past 58. The SS admin runs the numbers assuming a 4% avg COLA from 62 to 67. Everyones case is different so know your numbers. Our household base spend is 38 to 39 K a year. We throw in another 20 K for travel above that baseline. Assuming inflation of 5% ( yes it's a bit higher right now but has been low for so long ) and my SS alone covers 80 to 90% of our base household expenses going forward. When my spouse pension and SS also get turned on, we actually could live and travel all over the world on SS alone. So our investments do the heavy lifting for income over a 9 years. Then SS and other streams of income start to turn on reducing the need to pull off investments. Good times !

Quality of life is more important than only your overall income. If you work your butt off your whole career, pay off your home, are debt free, and live within your means, you can retire whenever you want, regardless of SSI. My personal plan for retirement is to stop doing what I "have to" do, and begin doing what I "want to" do. Worrying about SSI and taxes is actually micro managing. Work to not need SSI at all, and then the extra $2,000 - $4000 per month from SSI will be free to spend on your wants and desires while you are in good enough shape to enjoy it. Working to 70 is fine, but enjoy life. No need to grind until you die so you can make $500/month more while missing out on your wants and desires for 5-8 years up until that point.

For near retirees he is FOS. The max Social Security is about $4600. It is not taxed unless you have other income, and even then the max that is taxed is 85%. Most people will get about $2500-3000 at full retirement age. I will get $4300 in todays dollars at 70. My wife gets $2600 drawing at age 63. Any money that Social Security takes for earning too much is given back starting at age 67. The $1700 average includes all the early takers, and spousal checks, which are half of the spouses checks. You get more credit for the lower income, so most couples, can get close to $4000 at FRA. Generally do avoid early claiming, unless you have a large portfolio.

@@shaunsmith9519 That is not correct. The calculations are a litte complicated, but are based on “combined income” which counts half of your SS. So if you have no other income, the first threshold for a single person is $25,000, meaning you would need $50,000 of SS to START getting taxed. For a couple the first threshold is $32,000, meaning $64,000. If you have other income then the risk of taxation rises quickly, but even then much of it isn’t taxed and the first portion is 0%, then 50%, then 85%. And to further complicate it, it is actually the portion “subject” to taxation. That means that the standard deduction will further reduce actual taxation. The bottom line is that a single person with $40,000 of SS and no other income will pay NO income tax on their SS

I wait until full benefit age. Really pissed that what was taken from me for my retirement is taxed if I am still making income. They took $400K over my career from myself and my employers. If they cry about that I would be delighted to be given a tax credits for the full amount. :) It was not sold as freaking "insurance". Nor was it supposed to be some form of welfare based on "need". All of that is a complete bait and switch for those of us already at or past full benefit age. I was reasonably well paid so my monthly is currently $3100. Not bad but not enough in my current lifestyle which is not at all extravagant. What I want is not to retire to do nothing but to have my time freed up to work as hard or harder on things I really care about or to enjoy life more than with a day job. I need more money to do what I want to do when I want to do it.

I'd like to adopt a strategy where I don't rely on SS at all whatsoever. Investments, rental properties, and other investments that are diversified. Once I 'retire' from my career job, I still have side hustles, and cash flow assets that I could/should easily live on. Doesn't mean I can run out and buy a Bezos yacht, but travel, visiting grandchildren, vacations are still well within our capabilities. The most important thing... (if you have insurance especially) see your doctor annually. Keep your blood pressure, weight, and sugar intake in order. Pay attention to your health especially. As manufacturing returns to the American continent, there will be amazing opportunities once this happens.

Are you sure manufacturing will return? Everywhere I go there is a shortage of workers and that will continue to get worse as the population ages. Maybe robotic manufacturing? Healthcare and businesses focused on serving our aging population will be growth areas IMHO.

@@dwights1464 I do think it will return. I think we'll see it spread out of the American continent though so expect some in Canada, US, Mexico and into Central America. The US is still a service industry but I think we'll be importing and exporting a lot between North & South America. Easier to secure transportation.

Mark, you mentioned at the beginning of the live session that some people who run a business are taking a higher salary, to receive the highest amount of social security (credits) that you would be eligible for and that might be bad. Curious where you were headed with that negative connotation, you never really closed the gap during the live session. Why would it be bad for me to take the full $160,200 OASDI to qualify for the highest available benefit later when Social Security is claimed at 70 and beyond??

@korygrandy6133 Жыл бұрын
@@ryanthorpe7194 Right. I've just been taking the salary at the cutoff for maximum Social Security benefits each year, and passing that income through as a loss on my tax return since I am an S-Corp. I pay the taxes on my W2 for that max reported wage (in 2022 that was 147k so this year I will take 160,200f or my reasonable salary). I am curious why Mark thinks that is bad. Maybe its that he feels SS will be a reduced benefit and that the Social Security tax we pay would be better suited for real estate, or crypto or going back into our business or something. He also mentions that nobody should retire early, and work forever but I disagree, that time > $$$ and I would not retire and do nothing at all...I would retire and have less income coming in, but income is not the end all, there is a point where there is "enough" and then the only people you are benefiting are your heirs who could learn to be given things and not earning them on their own...aka trust fund babies. So overkilling your retirement income needs might not be ideal. I totally get creating generational wealth. But at some point, the kids gotta go out and find their own way and income.

@@osuave7811 Sounds like the good life. Taking early risks, maxing out those contrubutions and minimizing your tax liabilities should definitely get you to an early retirement. My sister passed away form cancer at 48, and that created a massive shift in my thinking. I want to enjoy life before I get too old, or die. And part of that doesn't include working. I get the whole idea of, well what if you love what you do but for me, not having to work is loving what I do! Travel, spend time with kids and grandkids, sleep in, take naps... yeah none of that will include working for me. I've been saving since I was 26 to make early retirement possible, since I won't have a large pension, I need to do it myself with Roth and 401k savings, plus Social Security.

Help!!!! I was on Sri for a number of years. Went back to work in 1999. Ticket to work program. My ssdi stopped. In early 2020 I received a letter saying that I was overpaid $15000. I work as an electrician and know that contractors are notorious for reporting work late. I appealed the overpayment amount. No decision in 2020 , 2021 and in December of 2022 I received a letter saying that I owed $6900. The letter did not say that this was my appeal decision. I went to the SS office and was told it probably was ant I really only owed $5400. I paid that right then and there. In February of this year, I had $31000 dropped into my account and a letter in march saying that it was back ssdi owed to me. I have been working all this time and I believe that they will be asking for this money back. My problem is I qualify for ss in April and ssdi was automatically turned to ss. Since I am still working I do not want to start my ss until I’m 70. How can I stop this?😊

I misunderstood what Mark said and re-listened to the recording. The $1 for every $2 or $3 earned over a threshold reductions for taking social security before 67 are for W2 and self employment income. He later said even rental income is included but at that point he was talking about the taxation of 85% of your social security check over the threshold not the $1 for every $2 or $3 earned. He normally draws charts when things get complex but didn't on this one. Good video!!!
