[QUOTE="Dave, post: 1616339, member: 498"] I couldn't retire early and collect the pension from the job until I had 20 years in. That put me to almost 65. So I waited to 66 to get full SS and full pension from the job. We had options on the survivor benefits on the pension. Went with 50%. The wife had a cousin who retired and said he was going to get every possible dime out of the pension. He took the the no survivor benefit option. Died 2 months later. Left his wife with only SS, a couple of newer vehicles, and a smallish house in town. No other benefits or finances as they had spent it all living pay check to pay check. [/QUOTE]
