I'm going to ... retire.....RETROACTIVELY, but do it in the future. How 'bout you? [View all]

This is fun. I can actually DO stuff now, but do it in the past. It's like I'm in the Twilight Zone.

When it comes time to retire, I won't retire. I'll keep working, because I can then retire retroactively, later. My SS benefits will be greater because I worked longer, but the SS will owe me a TON of back benefits, since I retired retroactively, five years previously.

So THAT'S how you get rich! I finally get it!

There's probably a lot of things I can do retroactively.
