I have a sister who will be 41 in a couple of months and she has rarely worked. I'm guessing she has around 5 yrs of credits. She doesn't want to talk about it because she thinks it will just work out. She has been lucky in that she had a boyfriend, then a husband, and now a boyfriend who support her.
I think her SO's liked that she didn't work so that she could devote herself to them and their busy lives. I've been trying to educate her on what may happen in the future if she ends up alone someday.
So my question is, is there a minimum for social security or is it always a percentage of wages? I do know that she needs at least 10 years credit.
