‘I claimed Social Security at 62’: At 76, I’m working at Walmart. Why do I still owe payroll taxes?
‘It seems like half of the workforce at our local Walmart is over 65’
Dear Quentin,
I filed for Social Security at 62 because I was having a hard time paying my bills without it. I am now 76 and have been working full-time or part-time ever since then. I see so many other seniors working too. In fact, it seems like half of the workforce at our local Walmart is over 65. I get Social Security taxes taken out of every paycheck.
Where is all that money going if I am still working and contributing?
