I semi-retired 5 years ago and currently work very part-time. When I semi-retired I had been working full-time (including that year) for 32 years. I had some part-time work before that and then the semi-retired work, which for the first couple of years was for a lot more hours than I'm working now.
Anyway, I played with the SS calculator and found that none of the earning I currently make will increase my SS one iota. I would have to make (if I recall) something over $80k a year to make any increase in SS at all and that would only be a small increase. Currently my projected SS is about 98% of the max so it wouldn't make much sense for me to worry about trying to get to that max.
