I currently have 128 quarters after retiring at age 55 (I spent my younger years working for the Fed. Govt.). My salary for the last 15 years or so was well above whatever the dollar figure was when SS deductions from paychecks stop. I know that 140 quarters is some sort of magical number SSA number.
Question - is it worth getting some low key part time work at a low/moderate salary (10-20 dollars per hour) to get up to 140 qarters? I did take some time to search around ssa.gov but couldn't really find anything to help. I am presume my annual SS statement is based on the assumption I will keep working until I am at their retirement date (62 for ER) Any responses, or requests for additional info that is required to answer this question would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you.
