935 - Timing Your Social Security Benefits

That's the title of a New York Times article on when to take your social security benefits. The article is good by itself but it also has several good links in it. And there's a graph (I like pictures) on the left hand side that you need to click on. It's another short article but with the whole graph. I've always contended that the cross over point for 62 vs 66 was 78 years old. The graph makes my case.

Also, I cut my 'show posts' from 10 down to 5. Hopefully this will speed up downloads for viewers.

The problem I have with even thinking about Social Security, is that both I and it must live long enough for me to collect. I'm skeptical that either of those things will happen. ;-)
