When given the choice of when to start Social Security, I calculated the break even point between
reduced-early and full-later benefits to be about age 80. A big part of the rationale was that I
smoked (a lot) for almost 40 years. I figured if I made it past 80 I wouldn't mind the lower monthly
SS check, but I'd just pat myself on the back for each extra year.

Still feel that way.
