Yes, the SS estimates are assuming we retire at 52 and start collecting at the specified ages, so would be a bit lower if we retire before then. WIll check out that link as well. Thanks!Is your SS estimate what you would receive if you stop working at 52? I think the SS calculator default assumption is that you keep earning the same income until the age you specify you plan to claim.
BTW, I just discovered this calculator (https://ficalc.app/), which let's you model retirement under different sequences of return. It's very simple to use.
