On the way home from the bank today, I heard a news story on the radio about the new Social Security Benefits Calculator, located over at SSA.gov.  You can use the estimator, if -

* You are not currently receiving benefits on your own Social Security record;
* You have enough Social Security credits at this time to qualify for benefits and
* You are not eligible for a Pension Based on Work Not Covered By Social Security.

Take a look and see what your benefits will be (assuming Social Security still exists) when you retire.
