Sure it does. Accepting a Social Security benefits check... which is socialism... while complaining about socialism, especially saying that socialists ought to be killed... is just outright hypocrisy. I'd happily forgo my Social Security check later in life as long as I am exempt from paying FICA today. Remember that SS is for more than retirement. Should you get hit by a truck tomorrow, and are unable to work, you get to collect. I buy personal disability insurance for that kind of thing. If the truck kills you, your wife and kids (assuming you have any) also collect. That's why my life policy is for. And I'll bet you have less coverage, and pay more than SS. Max SS for 1995 is $1939/month -- indexed to cost of living. Go price an annuity that will give you that, then price life insurance that will give you the cost of the annuity. Then do the same for disability, and add the 2 -- unless you can find a policy that covers both. I could buy a really nice insurance policy for the money. My SS statement just came the other day. I paid $77,596 and my employers have paid $80,737 over the years. Since I am not yet 62, the amount could be increased. A a present day single premium $25,000 annuity will pay you about $235 / month. So if the money had gone in over the years, the annuity would be a lot greater. Medicare started in 1966. We have been paying 1.5% of total earnings with no limit on amount of earnings. And this is excess to the above named amounts for SS. You could buy a nice long term disability plan for these moneys. And If I wait to 66 can collect $1945 month. And payments were on only the first $7800 in 1970-1971. Increasing to $82,514 with a bigger percentage 31 years later. Seems as if this is not that good of investment for someone 30 years old. Currently it is 6.2% up to $87,900 and the employer matches the payments. $10,899 /year not including medicare can buy you a really nice annuity. |
