I'm hanging on a little longer. I was seriously thinking about retiring earlier this year a little before I turned 66. I delayed signing up for Medicare because I was still on my employer's health insurance so I could insure my wife has medical coverage. She turns 65 in Feb 2024, which coincides with my Full Retirement Age for Social Security. I plan to sign up for Medicare and Social Security in Feb 2024. The only reason to delay retirement any further will depend on what my doctor says. I may have another hip replacement early next year under Medicare, if so I will hang on until my medical leave ends. I am absolutely positive I will retire by summer 2024 regardless.
