A few things.
I've seen that you considered waiting to max payout SS range but reconsidered. Keep with that. My financial advisors have advised me to not make that move. Some posters are just natural ****s. They always eventually simmer to the top. If you try to get back into tech and need someone to look over your resume, you can always PM it to me. Now that I've done it long enough, I'd feel comfortable picking it apart and telling you why you're not getting call backs. Ageism is very real in IT but it shouldn't keep you from getting any interviews. And good luck with the job interview. |

If a persons everyday living expenses are satisfied by what SS pays even at 62 that could be a great reason to start taking distributions. What about your spouses SS? What happens if one of you passes? Just saying that starting SS at age 62 vs full age isn’t the same for every person and every situation. |

There are age points where taking SS earlier than age 70 makes sense. |

You can draw early at 62 and keep working and if things go well again, all that extra earned income will reshape your future draw numbers. If it doesn't work out, at least it's some income to ideally not be living on the streets. I think you need to last into your 80's for where waiting to 70 vs 67 would become the advantage and well google says the avg male life expectancy in the US is about 75. That's before even starting to weigh you're working for an additional 3 years of time burnt that you can never ever buy back. The rest of whatever hypothetical you threw out that clearly doesn't apply to the OP here so moving on. |

I like you but you're in the wrong here. No need to kick a fellow Planeteer while they're down and that's certainly what this feels like to him and appears to be to us. You're a good dude and this is a good time to just be kind.
