Is My Only Strategy to Wait As Long As Possible to Collect Social Security?


I am now 63, single, never married, still working, and no children. Is my only strategy to wait as long as possible to collect Social Security?\


Lois,
Waiting as long as possible, up to age 70, and/or continuing to work at higher earnings than your previously high 35 years are the only strategies that are available to you to maximize your lifetime Social Security benefits.

Best,
Mike
