“Despite having many friends in their 70s, 80s and 90s, I’ve been far too slow to realize that how we respond to aging is a choice made in the mind, not in the gym.” https://www.nytimes.com/2018/10/02/well/live/the-secret-to-aging-well-contentment.html
On June 13, 2018, Bernie Rosen, Public Affairs Specialist, shared an overview of the Social Security program at the Orion NYC Chapter meeting. Bernie’s depth of knowledge from decades with the Social Security Administration made him an excellent educational resource and ‘answer man’ for the many attendee questions.
Bernie and his colleague, Nilsa Henriquez, also made informative presentations at the Orion Westchester and Long Island meetings in the past year.
Based on members’ requests, here is an abbreviated version of Bernie’s slides. While the data was current as of June 13th, regulations can change so be sure to check with the SSA for the most up-to-date information. Download here
