    • Part of one's SS may be taxable, but still not have to pay any taxes on it because the taxable portion is less than the standard deduction. Plus many states do not tax SS. I SMH when people don't include taxes as one of their expenses.

    • Did you read the ABOUT page of Open SS calculator? Mike Piper even points you to the source code that includes a readme file. For people really interested in the details of how this calculator works, I'd encourage you to check out the source code, available at the following link. (The README file is a good place to start.) https://github.com/MikePiper/open-social-security/ Not sure he could be any more transparent.

    • Why do you keep differentiating by referring to yourself as the working person, when in fact you were the finacially compensated one. Your wife did work by doing work you say is important, but seem to downplay her contribution in your words.
