You'll notice I specifically said if you live to 65, which kept my statement accurate. I intentionally excluded accidents and workplace deaths because my point was and still is that the system was intentionally created so that people could retire at 65 and enjoy a few years of not working.

A few years. Not 20. Less than 5 typically. If you live to 95 mooching for 30 years is a huge problem, not intended function.

"Mooching" 🙄🫠 Yes, a 65 year old (who now has to wait until 67) will statistically get three more years to enjoy retirement than they did in 1930.

Made up stats for made up scenarios lol

Ok, what am I making up? 1930 numbers: Average lifespan after 65=78. 78-65=13. Average of 13 years of retirement. The 2022 actuarial table for average life expectancy after age 67=16.11. Average of 16.11 years of retirement.
