Social Security & age of retirement?

I know that one can retire at age 62. A person can also retire at age 66. Do Social Security benefits increase on sliding scale...say if one were to go to pasture at age 63...do they get more/month than they would if they were 62? Or is there only 2 choices 62 or 66?

    Yes. Every year you continute to work increases your benefits up to a certain point. Check with your local SS office or their web site for the details. The sliding scale depends on year in which you were born, so it is not easy to summarize.
