It was a Ponzi scheme from the get go. That is why I initiated taking my check at full retirement age on the button. Also I feared a situation like IRMAA where if one received income over a threshold SS payments would be reduced or even eliminated. What I essentially did was invest my SS checks over the years.

It is time to find and eliminate SS disability fraud, too.
