Social Security Estimator Available
Faculty who are getting up there in years may find it useful to estimate what they will receive in Social Security from the website above at http://www.ssa.gov/estimator/. Note that some old timers opted out of Social Security when the Regents joined the federal system and that the website will not be applicable for them. You can receive Social Security starting at age 62. If you wait, your benefits will increase. (But – and we hate to remind you of this existential fact – the fewer months you will have to receive those benefits.)
And a little music while you work on your estimates:
