Will You Provide A Calculator For People Who Were Born In 1960?

Will you provide a calculator for people who were born In 1960 who are getting screwed over because of the Average Wage index is calculated when they tuned 60 during the pandemic? I would like to compare my 35 + years of earnings earnings indexed as if i had been born in 1959 or 1961 to see how badly i got screwed.

Hi. Our software (https://maximizemysocialsecurity.com/purchase) includes a benefit calculator that would allow you to do what you have in mind, but the indexing factors needed to calculate precise retirement benefit rates for people born in 1960 won't be made available by Social Security until later this year.

Best, Jerry
