Reply #125: I really wish I could get my social sec I paid in...

my race lives less than others, statistically. As others outlive us, they will be collecting money we paid in. I think it would be better that when we get to a certain age, we are written a check for the total amount we paid in. It should at least the compund interest that I would get if I put it in a bank savings account.

I would think that most people, once they have reached retirement age, are mature enough to handle their own retire account.
