Close co-worker friend of mine waited until 70. Most of his family lives well into their 90s. He had pensions from other companies too. He was going to cruise retirement with a ton of money. 3 weeks after his 71st birthday, they found a spot on his lungs. He was dead 10 months later.

My dad died at 69. My one grandfather was dead at 65 the other was killed on the job at 44. My one Great grandfather died at 71, the others I’m not sure.

I don’t think it’d be wise to wait until 70, for me.

I feel the same. I tried to think of men on the sides of both of my parents who made it to 80. Almost none. The women often make 90, though.

Seeing that I have a health problem, I'm taking it at 62 if I won't need additional income to survive. Of course since I'm not even 50 this whole thing is probably moot. In 15 years there may not be Social Security, or there will be a draconian wealth tax or no country at all.
