How Much Will I Get From Social Security if I Make $100,000?
Social Security benefits are or will be a major part of most Americans' retirement income, so it's important to know how much to expect. While it's impossible to predict someone's Social Security benefit based solely on their current salary, by knowing how your monthly benefit will be determined, you can get a good idea of how much you could receive if you make $100,000 per year.
If you currently earn a salary of $100,000 per year, it's impossible to tell you how much you should expect from Social Security based on that information alone. As we'll discuss in the next section, Social Security considers your 35 highest-earning years when determining your benefit, and each year is equally weighted in the average.
