reported in a recent social security study of the impact of future taxes on the value of a person's social security protection. The study concluded that steady workers either married or unmarried can generally expect to gain additional benefits that are worth more than their own future social security taxes.
Hundley noted that the study stated that the main exception to the rule is the highly paid worker who remains unmarried—the future benefits are worth slightly less than the future taxes.
He cautioned that the social security study used hypothetical situations, and should be considered reasonable estimates rather than guaranteed predictions.
"Of course, you can t predict the future earnings or life span of any one person, so how much you get from social security will ultimately reflect your own participation and work experience." he said.
He noted that a number of factors affected the amount of a family's social security benefits, including the worker's average annual earnings over the years and the number of dependents.
