One thing a successful retiree never discloses is how they got to realize that the key to amassing wealth lies in making sound investments. I purchased my first home at the age of 21 for $87,000 and sold it for $197,000. My second home, acquired for $170,000, was later sold for $320,000, and my third property, purchased at $300,000, fetched $589,000, with buyers covering all closing costs and expenses. Not reaching a million before retirement feels like an unfulfilled goal.

Social security is set up where, they give you a certain amount of social security every year for the rest of your life. Not all of it at once, but a certain amount every year. So most people die before they even see all of their money they put into social security. And where does that money go? To their children? Their family? Their spouse? Perhaps some other loved one? Nope. It goes to the government to be used by the government for whatever the government wants. It's why they keep raising the age every year. First it was 55, then 60, now they're raising it even more. So that the people who would qualify for social security will die sooner after they start receiving the money, and so the government can keep all of that money for itself. Just look it up.

That will have to do with how many people are working per retiree, and how good the operating capital is weighed against resources constrained by not really being a product of human labor directly. All SS is a transfer payment from young to old which has gone on from time immemorial.

Despite astronomical medical costs, USA life expectancy is shamefully low (26 of 35 OECD) at about 79 years. That means expecting to work from about age 20 to age 65, pay 12.3% of your salary, then draw SS for an average of 14 years has some math limitations. Assuming your income doubles from age 20 to 65 (flatline it if you like, the math gets stronger in support of SS for low income), you've only paid 6.5% (employer pays the other half) of your total income. I'm unclear how getting 90% of the first $996 and 32% of $996-$6,002 of your income for an average of 14 years is unfair considering you only paid 6.5% for 45 years? Since math seems to be a challenge: 45 years at $20k=$900k lifetime income at 6.15% is $55,350.00 $20k=$1,667 monthly SS pays 90% of $996=$896.40 + 32% $671=$214.72 for a monthly total of $$1,111.12 for an average of 14 years = $186,668.16 Sure Warren Buffet may do better, but even he can't guarantee this ROI.

Plenty of businesses now following that model and simply firing employees or shutting down the business and moving elsewhere.

I started collecting SS at 62. I work part time, I'm only allowed to make 18,400 per year. For every 2 dollars I go over they take back a dollar from my SS. With the Inflation rate they still won't raise the threshold of 18,400. I know that once they deplete the strategic oil reserves gas will skyrocket again.

I went to college in the first years of the 80's, they used your social security number as a student ID number then. We also received dozens and dozens of credit card applications.

the people in the FIRE movement look like geniuses compared to this.

Not really. The only reason they can do that is because they had really good jobs that paid them enough to save a lot of money and invest in good interest rate opportunities. Your average American will never get the opportunity to earn that much in a short period of time. Also a lot of people in the FIRE movement never disclose their inheritances. They try to make it seem like they did it all on their own when they likely got a lot of help through money handed down to them. FIRE is literally for wealthy Elite White people and an extremely small few of wealth Elite Minorities. The rest of us are lucky if we get to have stable employment with a decent paying job. And that's with making good financial and career decisions.

@@teddybruscie Inheritance??? Elite WHITE!!! people???. Bro don't even, I'm tired of people thinking others can't do as well as "white's". You'r basically giving people an excuse to be financially stupid. you don't need lots of money, to be white, or even a college degree to be wealthy. It might help, but at the end of the day it's YOU who wants to learn, benefit, and grow you're finances. The books, videos, and corses, don't care when, where, how and most of all what your skin color is. But again blame it on someone els.

@@Js14561 Wow great way to misrepresent my argument. I never said anyone can't do it. I said it's extremely less likely. Sure I could climb Mt Everest without a guide and no tools, there are people who have, but that doesn't mean that everyone has an equal ability to do so. So the likelihood given varying backgrounds and circumstances of different people to even be able to do FIRE or retire period is pretty next to impossible even with smart financial decisions. And yes being white is a huge factor because white people have higher rates of wealth transfers. Most people who do FIRE have wealth transfers. How are people who habe wealth transfers gonna lie to 99% of people in the world and tell them they can retire early when they were given every opportunity to succeed and simply decided to cash in early. So no 99% of people who are not wealthy or have an inheritance coming, can not and will never be able to do FIRE because the American market is not designed for 99% of people to retire early. By the time 10% of people somehow manage to do it they will have changed the game and those 10% will start dropping like flies.

Of course it doesn't. There are simply too many people living far too long. They either have to save enough to be able to support themselves or keep working.

Social Security is not a retirement account. It is not an investment account. It is not a pension plan. It is not an IRA. It is not a savings account. It is not a return on investment. It is not a government 401(k) or 403(b) plan. It is not an annuity.

Amazon owes more than $1 billion in federal income taxes for 2019, according to SEC filings submitted last month. The online retail pioneer so far has paid $162 million on its 2019 bill, with the remaining $914 million owed in 2019 federal income taxes deferred.

Under the 2017 Jobs and Tax act, businesses are able to deduct the cost of fixed assets; however, for book purposes, these assets are depreciated over their useful lives. So for tax purposes, those large asset purchases reduce their actual taxable income (imagine how much Amazon buys in equipment, etc. during the year). So essentially, the difference between those two calculations are deferred and essentially are supposed to turn around in future years.

I'll be back when there are more comments.

Been reading the comments here for a solid hour! Lol!

So all this money for years and none was invested for long term in a stock fund for some growth ? 5/10%?

It's projected those receiving social security are likely to get a 9.6% cola adjustment in 2023. That cola adjustment is going to stress the trust fund. While wages are higher the number of workers is lower or stagnant. The ss taxes paid probably won't make up for the cola increase. I'm 75 and it's possible any social security I get could be reduced at some point.
