In theory, a person should get ack in retirement approximately what he or she put in. This is assuming real value of the money, not the number of dollars. If you live and work through periods of high inflation, you should get back more dollars than you put in (provided you live long enough) but the value of a dollar will have decreased.

No, the earliest you can collect Social Security retirement benefits is age 62. While you may be able to retire at age 55, you will need to have other resources to draw from until you are eligible for Social Security. Retiring at age 55 is difficult for most people. Not only are not you not eligible for Social Security for many more years, but in general, you can't access your retirement accounts until you reach age 59 1/2. Also, you don't qualify for Medicare until age 65. All of these combined make it very difficult for the average person to retire at 55. If you are retiring because of disability and qualify for Social Security disability benefits, you can collect those before age 62.
