I've concluded there is no one right answer. Everyone's circumstances will be somewhat different than anyone else. Their financial position, their financial needs, their lifestyle wants, their longevity expectations and reality, coupled with what they expect to provide and to who after their death all result in a radically different answer for each scenario. Like so many other "rules" for retirement you never know what the right answer is.
I agree. You can run all the computations you want, ultimately, each person makes a decision that is the best for them and their circumstances. Take at 62, take at 70, or any time in between, it's your choice.
