Dear goodintentions, My last social security statement revealed that I, and my employers, have contributed over 160,000 dollars over my working career. If that money had been deposited in a savings account at my local bank, I wonder what I would have on account today, considering compounding interest? I know that my 160,000 has been spent for other things and I am counting on a government I.O.U.
