Have you done the numbers? Do you gain anything by getting payments for three years early?
Yeah, I get lower SS payments, but they start three years earlier. I am fortunate in having both a pension and a 401K, unfortunate in not signing on with this company until I was 36, but the SS should be a welcome bonus that I don't have to rely on. I plan to use the early SS payments to cover my insurance until I qualify for Medicare.
