Thinks s/he gets paid by the post
Happened to run across the CBO report from 12/21/16 which now says current rules change SS sustainability to end of 2019 with a haircut to 79% starting in 2030. Since my worst case spreadsheets were set at 2034 previously I updated them this morning.

While I feel fairly certain changes will come before then to somewhat shore up the system, I like playing with spreadsheets for my own peace of mind. Maybe I have too much time on my hands!
Since my worst case plans on inflation at 4% and SS and investment returns at 2% we have a significant slack in our numbers and still make it to 95 without running out of cash.
