I look forward to being one of those "10,000 a day" geezers in a year but the dough,
(max monthly bennies for early "take"), is not gonna change or even affect our living
std very much. And, I doubt it will remain in its current form for more than the rest of
this decade.
The Geezers I hang with, (with is 90% of my buds), have all pulled the trigger on the
"get it at 62" deal, with the exception of a few that still do big buck consulting, MDs,
et al., and have postponed taking it at 62.
Hey, your Pop and me are nearly the same age...damn.

My dad spoke with 3 financial analysts about whether to take the money at 62 or wait....all of them, independently said..take in as soon as you can because you have no guarantees. My pops was born in Sep 1946.
