When a married couple retires, can they each get a ...

when a married couple retires, can they each get a social security check, or is only one allowed to get a check? Also, I have heard that soc sec benefits are based on the last 5 yrs I work, so if I stop working at age 60, making good money, should I not risk just working part time, otherwise I would reduce my benefit?

Karma's a b*tch.

I'm not actually sure the answer to your question. I would suggest calling up the local Social Security Office and speaking with a representative. I think he/she can better answer your questions. Good luck.
