People approachinlg retire
ment age general y find
themselves left with one ma
jor decision after having
weighed all the flos and cons
of retirement. That is, exactly
WHEN to retire,
As far as Social Security is
concerned, that decision can
make a difference in how well
the program meets your
needs, including the amount
of your check as well as the
total amount of benefits you
can expect to receive over the
period of your retirement.
The earliest you can retire
is at age 62. However, Social
Security benefits are reduced
5/9 of 1 percent for each
month you are retired before
you reach re?e 65 — amoun
ting to a reduction of 20 per
cent if you retire at 62. On the
other hand, most people can
expect to receive about the
same in total benefits over the
longer period of time they will
be %ettmg benefits.
eople who delay their
retirement East aie 65 may
expect to have their retire
ment check increased by 3 fler
cent for each year that they
don't get checks after age 65.
A person who retires at aie 68
wifi have his or her check in
creased by 9 Eercent over
what it would have been at
age 65. :
The age at which a tperson
retires also makes a difference
in how much they can earn
without affectinf their Social
Security benefits. People
under age 65 may earn up to
$4,920. Earnings over the
limit result in $1 in benefits
being withheld for each $2 in
excess earnings. Starting in
1983, earnings by People 70
and over are not affected by
the earnings limits, also
known as the ‘‘retirement
test.”
During the first year of
retirement a monthlyv test is
applied. This enables a person
to retire any time during the
year and collect full benefits
for any month in which he or
she does not earn over the
monthly limit and does not
perform substantial services
in self-employment,
regardless of total earnings
for the year.
You should apply for
Social Security benefits at
least three months before the
month you plan to retire to
give Social Security time to
process your claim so that
your checks begin with the
month you plan to stop work
ing.
Q. I'm thinking of retiring
next year at age gZ. Will I be
able to qualify for Medicare at
the same time?
A. No. Medicare protection
starts at age 65. However, you
should know that once you
reach age 65 you don’t have to
retire to get Medicare. '
Q. I am a Federal employee
and am now paying taxes for
Medicare hospital insurance
coverage. But, I had planned
to retire this year. Will I still
be able to qualify for
Medicare even though I've
just started paying in%
The American people,
through their representatives
in Congress, are being asked
'to make some serious deci
| sions about the future course
of the Social Security pro
gram. These decisions can
best be made if people have a
clear understanging of what
Social Security is and how it
has evolved over the years in
re?onse to chan%ing times
and changing problems.
Social Security was design
ed to be one part of a total in
come maintenance system. It
was never intended to be the
sole source of income for
retired or disabled workers or
their dependents and sur
vivors.
Social Security began as a
retirement program only for
industrial ans commercial
workers. In fact, not even all
of this segment of the
workforce was originally in
cluded. The first significant
changes to the Social Security
Act were legislated in 1939
even before the original Act
was fully operational. These
amendments, in part, extend
ed coverage to the dependents
and survivors of retired
workers.
Following World War 11,
coverage was once more ex
tended to include many types
of jobs that had previously
been excluded — for example,
farm workers and household
employees, self-employed per
sons, and, on an elective basis,
employees of State and local
governments and non-profit
organizations.
Also through the years, a
variety of other amendments
have tended to liberalize the
work ret}uirement. needed to
qualify for benefits, to in
crease the payment levels, and
to provide more adequately
for dependents of insured
workers. Even more signifi
cant was the addition and
subsequent expansion of
disability insurance in the
'sos and Medicare in 1965.
Still later came the extension
of Medicare to the long-term
disabled. :
All of these amendments
have a common denominator
— a desire to keep the Social
Security program responsive
to changing needs — to pro
vide new answers for new pro
blems. And it is this same
flexibility that will keep Social
Security resaponsive to the
needs of the decade of the 'Bos
and beyond.

Area Lawyer
Turns To Preaching
1t asked you could pro
bably think of several dif
ferences between lawyers and
ministers.
Rainey Council, new
minister at South 27 Church
of Christ, LaFayette, may
know them all.
At least he is in a good
position to give you the pros
and cons of %loth rofessions.
Until recentgf. Council
who has a radio program on
WGTA, had been Practicing
law in Dade City, Fla.
Now, after 11 years as a
lawyer, he is back to
preachinf, something he did
while in law s¢hool.
One of the main dif
ferences, according to Council,
between his current profes
sion and the one he has just
left is the decrease in salary.
But he eXfiects the rewards
to outweigh the loss in
monetary benefits.
“The church was always
the main thing in my life,”
said the University of Florida
graduate.
“I preached while atten
ding law school,” he recalls,
“but I couldn’t do both.”
During the years he prac
ticed law in Florida, he
handled all the usual cases,
from criminal to civil, and he
also recalls having his share of
the ‘‘free trials.”
He found over the years
that most of the public looked
on lawyers as a ‘“‘bunch of
crooks.”
“I'm not a fanatic,” Coun
cil said. But there comes a
time in some people’s lives
when they look %ack and
realize money isn’t
everything. ‘‘They’ve made all
that money but tf‘l’ey never en
joyed it,”’” Council said.
It wasn't that he disliked
being an attorney. His 11-year
practice had ‘‘plenty of
rewards,’’ Council said. .
“The first two or three
{ears it’s a challenge. You feel
ike you're doing some good.
Then it gets to be a constant,
pressure-filled situation.”
And although Council
didn't see his Christianity and
legal profession as conflictin%,
some people ‘‘think all
lawyers are a bunch of
crooks,” he said.
“I'm looking forward to a
release of the pressures from
the legal profession,” Council
said. That's not to say
reaching will be pressure
?ree, Council pointed out, but
he believes he'll enjoy it more.
Council is 43 and he made
the decision June 1 to give up
his 10-year law practice and
become a full-time preacher.
He'd been preaching part time
for years and preacfied at a
smafi church in Chiefland,
while attending the Universi
ty of Florida law school in
Gainesville.
Although he has received
no college training to be a
minister, Council said the
Church of Christ requires its
reachers have a ‘‘thorough
finowledge of the Bible.”

upset, wondering who'll take
care of their legal problems

but ‘‘none of them are really
surprised, not the ones who
know me well,”’ Council said.
Others in the legal com
munity rate him as a good
lawyer but said they also were
not surprised by his decision.
1 reslgect Rainey for do
ing it; I think it’s great,” said
gircuit Judge Ray E. Ulmer
r.
Council sees equivalents
between law and preaching.
Both require a good public
speaker, which “They tell me
I am,” Council said, and *‘peo
ple bring their problems to
you as an attorney and they’ll
tell you their problems as a
vreacher.”
The native of Ellerville,
has had a varied religious
background, having attended
Baptist and Methodist chur
ches and for a time being a
member of an Episcopal
church choir.
