An important part of my retirement planning is waiting until age 70 to collect Social Security. I consider it my annuity equivalent. Curious to find out how many others are doing the same, I did a Google search. What I finally found was a bit shocking. Here are the 2010 numbers (the most recent, apparently):
45% collect at 62
10% collect at 66
1-2% collect at 70
The remainder begin collecting in other years.
Found the stats in this Pittsburgh Post-Gazette article.
I suspect a good number of the members here have joined or plan to join this OTHER 1%. Am I right?
