I took my SS at 63 because I had to. - Anon. SM

Posted: Feb 12th, 2020 - 3:09 pm In Reply to: Early retirement at 62. - MT

My in-house job was outsourced and I lost half my very good income because of it. I also had to pay more for my health insurance. If I hadn't been able to collect my SS early, I would have lost my house. So, you can say things worked out very well for me taking any early retirement and it was worth it because I still have my own home to live in. Sometimes we have no choice but to take an early retirement.
