Hello,
Since this is an 'early retirement' forum, I'm assuming many of you know the answer to this question...but, I don't, which is why I'm asking. I'm on my Social Security online profile and viewing my past earnings and estimated benefits. As you know, on the page for estimated benefits, it says:
"Your estimates are based on the assumption that you will earn $xxx a year from now until retirement."
So, what if you retire early, say at 55? Is there a calculator that you can use to plug in numbers to see how much that will change your monthly estimate if you don't work between 55 and 62?
Thank you.
