1. This is an excellent app that everyone should use in the process of deciding on once-in-a- life option.This app saves you time and effort to look up lots of social security tables to get your benefit at various retirement ages.
2. I suggest everyone in such situation to give it a shotIt was confusing in deciding when to start taking social security; early money is always considered good but waiting longer could make it bigger and better.
3. My guess is that the spousal benefit percentages for retiring early are incorrect.I was told I could get about $2,800 a month as social security benefit now or take over $3,000 in a few months.
4. Results are easy to understand and nicely presented on one screen.This efficient app helps you analyze the bottom line difference of starting the benefits now or taking some more by starting it later.
5. Good app.Great app for rapid analysis of social security benefits.
6. This app calculates your starting benefits at any age over 62 and projects over your life taking into account inflation and longevity that you can pick and change.
7. I was looking around to find a way to compare the long range impact of starting on social security now at 63 or waiting till age 70.
8. If I put in both of us retiring at full retirement, it correctly calculates the spousal benefit of $1741.
9. waste of time and money to try and get any thing out of this app.What a great thought has been put into this app, really helpful! I recommend everyone to spend a few minutes with it before making the final decision.
10. In my case, according to ssa.gov, if my spouse takes SS at 62, she would receive the higher of (1) 32.71% of my full benefit ($3482) which is $1139 or (2) her own benefit of $884.
11. This app helped me quantify my options and helped me look at projected lifetime benefits under varying circumstances.
