Thinks s/he gets paid by the post
The point I was trying to make was if one has a decent stash, the SS becomes insignificant.
Fair enough and I can’t disagree. I wanted to comment for those who may read this education forum and get the impression that they can’t rely on any SS in their projections, and will have to plan on working many years longer than necessary.
Personally, someday, I hope to have a simple life as a renter again, bringing substantial home equity into the mix when I get tired of snow, grass and stairs and sell the house. Until then, I keep a low interest mortgage. Using home equity is also heretical to some here but it’s another legitimate asset to use.
