John, I must agree with Lightning, the there is a strong income leveling effect at payout time. For instance, in the 1995 SS guide that I have it has a table of payouts that shows avg. monthly earnings (payin base) vs monthly benefits at 65. Someone earning $800/mo gets $503/mo SS benefits or 63% of their wage base. Someone earning the max SS wage rate, $3493/mo will get $1207/mo SS benefits or about 35% of their wage base. Not to worry, they will get the the rich guys.
Regards, Pete
