When you reach retirement age, don't go to the Social Security office
and sign up. When you are old enough to qualify for Medicare, once
again, don't sign up for it. That way you can really fix them.


To hell with that. I want to know how not to pay into the system.
Your idea is abou the same as getting the better of someone by giving
them a bunch of money and getting nothing in return. That will really
fix them.

There is a way to not pay into the system.
That way is to not have any earned income.

FICA is not collected on unearned income, including interest on savings
deposits, stock dividends, and capital gains such as profits from the sale
of stock or real estate.

If all your money comes from stocks and other investments, you need not pay
anything into Social Security.

That is true, but somehow not relevant to me when I was young. I
could not have supported myself much less a family without working.
