  • Planning to save for retirement might not be a priority. Luckily, you’ll have some help from Social Security. Different salaries can drastically raise or lower your Social Security benefits. Here’s how much you can expect, based on six different salaries.
    The average Social Security check in 2020 is $1,503.
    Figuring out how much you can expect every month when you retire depends on a few criteria.
    The size of your payment will be based on income from your working years, the year you were born and the age when you decide to start receiving benefits.
    Luckily, CNBC did the math for a wide range of salaries, and we can estimate your future benefits if you make between $30,000 and $100,000 per year.
    Remember: Social Security was not envisioned as your sole source of money for retirement, and the totals are always changing.
    Watch this video for a breakdown of how much you will get and how your monthly benefit will be calculated based on multiple different salaries.

    • @diffcontroversy
      @diffcontroversy Před 3 lety

      It doesn't affect the bends. Instead, you just get a surplus amount in terms of percentage based on how long you wait. For instance, you wait an extra year and you get an extra 8% of whatever you otherwise would've gotten.

      Assuming FRA is 67, you get 100% at 67, about 70% at 62, and about 130% at 70.
      That difference may or may not be much, plus you depending on your line of work, and addition 8 years of work in your older years is going to feel much different than 8 years in your younger years.

    Yeah, well the reality is that for a lot of Seniors Social Security will be their only source of income. It's not a benefit, it's their money that was taken out of their checks. Therefore, Congress had better get going and pass one those many bills to fix it.

    I've been working since I was 13. Worked in a trade. No college. I worked overtime my whole life. I retired at 55. The day I turned 62 I started collecting S.S. $2100.00 per month. Looks like there will be a %10 increase in January. I do just fine on S.S. Another $200.00 per month in January. Maybe the same the following year? Live within your means. Save for retirement early.

    Yes, the US government has borrowed money from the Social Security trust fund in the past.
    The Social Security trust fund collects more in payroll taxes each year than it pays out in benefits. The excess funds are invested in US Treasury bonds, and the interest earned on those bonds is added to the trust fund.
    However, the government has sometimes borrowed money from the trust fund to finance other government programs, such as infrastructure projects, defense spending, and other government expenses. This borrowing is accomplished through the sale of special-issue Treasury bonds to the Social Security trust fund.
    The government is required to pay back the funds it has borrowed from the Social Security trust fund, with interest. As of now, the US government owes over $2.8 trillion to the Social Security trust fund. The government is required to repay this debt, and failure to do so could potentially jeopardize the stability of the Social Security program in the future.

That's like investing money into a 401K your entire working years only for the feds to say, you had your whole life to save, you should have saved extra in a brokerage account.
      Those of us who are working today are paying for those who are retired today. When we retire those who are working will pay for our retirement. Essentially you are getting back some of the money they took from you over the years. Also, let's be honest. Even if everyone in retirement refused the social security payments, do you seriously think the feds are going to stop collecting it? They would just use the money for something else and you essentially get nothing for it.
