Doesn't that depend on who is making the request? I don't think a bank or broker would open an account if you refused to provide your SSN. Or a credit card issuer. Or a mortgage or auto lender. And probably not an insurance company either.
The nice thing about being well prepared financially for retirement is that you have no debt, already have a mortgage or it is paid up, you can pay cash for a car, you don't need more CCs, you can pay in cash, and other than home and car insurance which you may already have there is not much that would require a SS#.
Cheers!
