1. I, along with my partners, built a company that does over $200 million per year in business and employs hundreds of people with thousands of dependents. I spent a large chunk of my childhood in a two-bedroom, one-bathroom, 1100 sq. ft. home with six people. 2. I said that Social Security is a Ponzi scheme that will bankrupt the United States. It is. 3. I said that human beings require purpose and fulfillment, and "retirement" in the common sense of the word (not leaving a job and finding a more fulfilling one, e.g., but leaving working entirely) generally robs people of both. With that said, it's a free country. If you can afford to retire, do what you want. 4. Those on the cusp of Social Security are reliant on false promises by the government. Those promises should be fulfilled. We need a phase-out of the 65 year age requirement for those who are younger.
