[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My father has two pensions and my mother never worked. She was so upset that her SS was only going to be about 1k I don't know if she applied for it. It was going to be her retirement play money. I really don't know what to make of her sometimes.[/quote] If she never worked how is getting 1000 a month? My wife worked over 30 years and only gets 1000 a month. (Good thing we saved and invested a lot) Makes no sense. [/quote] Non-working spouses can collect 50% of their spouses’s benefit. If you never worked, never married (or weren’t married for 10 or more years), or were not disabled, you cannot collect social security. There’s no minimum payment if you don’t fall into one of those three areas.[/quote] There is supplemental social security for about $650/month but it is probably means tested.[/quote]
