In 2021, Average Americans Will Fall $90,748 Short of Maxing Out Their Social Security Benefit
Earning the maximum Social Security benefit can leave you with a generous monthly income. In 2022, for example, the maximum monthly check, $4,194, will provide a whopping $50,328.
But the vast majority of Americans are earning far less than what it takes to get the maximum benefit from the Social Security Administration when they retire. In 2021, the typical worker's annual salary is projected to be $90,748 short of what's needed to get the largest Social Security checks.
