You are totally misreading my comment and my position.

Well, perhaps you can enlighten the audience as to how, in your word, the desires of a older rich oil tycoon's to marry a big breasted blond Texas woman can be used as an analogy for an AIDS infested homosexual marrying some young gay stud so the stud can have his social security benefits?

Widows and widowers don't get Social Security retirement benefits until they are of retirement age themselves.

Widows and widowers of persons receiving a pension won't get survivor's benefits unless the retired person opted for survivor's benefits, which meant that he/she received reduced payments during his/her lifetime.

Oh, also you can't qualify for your spouse's retirement benefits unless 1) you were married for at least ten years and 2) you never remarried.

And if the younger person made more money during hisur lifetime, his own benefits would be higher anyway.

You can't get BOTH benefits, only your own retirement benefit OR survivor benefit.
