This webpage helps you decide whether to start or defer your ordinary Social Security benefit payments between the ages of 62 and 70. This is convenient (HTMLized) output from my SS_BE.pl Perl script, running it for all valid birth years (45 - 60), so you don't have to run it yourself under Perl.
But note well, the excellent book, Get What's Yours (Revised & Updated): The Secrets to Maxing Out Your Social Security makes a very good case that it's invalid to even consider the SS break-even age (treating it purely as a pension), rather, it should be seen as a form of longevity insurance for those who beat the odds. But anyway --
For each birth year below there are available two output tables, one for yearly summaries and one for monthly details:
See also these SS webpages:
Retirement Planner: Full Retirement Age,
Retirement Planner: Delayed Retirement Credits,
and subsidiary pages.
Here "break even" means the point at which your total accrued benefit payments if you start early would equal your total accrued payments if you waited until age 70. If you live long enough to reach your break even age, then afterwards you would have been better off deferring rather than starting payments early (if you could afford to do so). See also: Thoughts on Starting a Pension Early.
