Retirement is the goal everyone works toward. The dream is to enjoy your remaining years in comfort, living off the fruits of the labor you've put in over decades. For most working people, age 62 is an important milestone. It's the earliest age you can currently claim Social Security retirement benefits. Data from the Federal Reserve Survey of Consumer Finances estimates that the median U.S. household approaches Social Security eligibility with just $185,000 in retirement savings, making Social Security an important financial crutch for most retirees. It's tempting to claim Social Security at the earliest opportunity. However, it's an important decision because claiming at 62 reduces your monthly benefits for life. Here are three ways working past 62 can permanently change your Social Security benefit. Continue reading

Iran Scrambling To Restore Bombed Missile Bunkers Within Hours After Being Struck Iran's resilience after more than a month of very heavy US-Israeli bombing has become obvious. The country's somewhat ancient air force and navy have been largely obliterated, and yet all the while the Iranian military has kept up intense ballistic missile and drone strikes on Israel and Gulf states. Tehran's missile arsenal is what is understood to have always been formidable. And now US intelligence has freshly assessed that Iranian personnel are busy excavating bombed underground missile bunkers and silos and restoring them to operation within a mere hours of US and Israeli strikes . The New York Times on Friday featured American intelligence analysis saying that Tehran has retained a substantial number of missiles and mobile launchers, raising serious doubts on how close Washington actually is to eliminating the Islamic Republic’s missile capability. via BBC The report states that Washington cannot determine how many launchers have been destroyed because Iran has deployed decoys . Underground bunkers and silos may appear damaged, but launchers are rapidly recovered from rubble and returned to use through the quick work of excavators and heavy equipment . Anna Kelly, a White House spokeswoman, has painted a rosy picture from the Pentagon's point of view: " Here are the facts: Iranian ballistic missile and drone attacks are down 90 percent, their navy is wiped out , two-thirds of their production facilities are damaged or destroyed, and the United States and Israel have overwhelming air dominance over Iran," she said. A senior Western official in the NY Times stated that Iran is firing approximately 15-30 ballistic missiles and 50-100 suicide drones per day across the region. US officials additionally told the Times that Iran aims to preserve as much of its missile-launch capability as possible to sustain its threat posture throughout the conflict and after it ends. Some of the remai...
