As I said earlier I am 66 and still working. I pay my Medicare tax as part of my pay deductions. It comes to around $2,500 per year. I signed up for Medicare Part A. It’s without charge to me. I signed up for Medicare Part B and surprise I am a high income earner. Part B is going to cost me an additional $1,200 per year. Paid into Medicare all of my working life, still paying into it and now they want to charge me more for enrolling into the program.
I’ve run the numbers and I can afford to work until I’m 70.5. Then I’ll have to quit - the taxes will eat most of my pay at that point. I’ll start taking SS and mandatory distributions.
