Social Security

Don’t count on getting it.
If you are counting on receiving the Social Security you spend years paying in, don't count on it. I am learning that everything that possibly can, will be done to prevent paying a disabled person disability. A person 40 years old has a heart attack and they have to revive him 3 times before they get him 2 miles, and they declare him not disabled. He has to get an attorney to go after his disability.
However, if, when you file and are rejected, you don't immediately get an attorney and accept SSI, you will lose out entirely. For every year you accept SSI, it puts the 10 years you got to have way back. I live on a $1,500 a month injection as well as other meds to walk daily, but I'm not disabled or not entitled to any benefits. I cannot even get an attorney as I've drawn SSI for 12 years.
So us baby boomers who paid in all this Social Security have been robbed as the government has borrowed it all and now wants to punish us by taking away what we paid in.
So just a word to the wise, don't count on seeing any of the money that is taken out of your pay when you get older.
