SOCIAL SECURITY STATUS EXPLAINED BY BUREAU Your old-age, survivors and dis ability insurance system is self supporting through social security taxes and interest on its trust funds. If you have w-ondered what your contributions have been, based on maximum wages from 1937 to 19- 60 inclusive as an employee, this amount would be $1,290. Your em ployer has contributed the same amount. This makes a total con tribution of $2,580. Your wages over this period would have been $82,800. These contributions, not only from employees but also from self employed persons, make up the trust funds. Monies not being used to pay for benefits to retired workers, survivors and disabled people are placed in the trust funds and invested in U. S. Government securities. The interest from the investment is added to the reserve fund. Interest now being received is much greater than the total ad ministrative expense of operating old-age and survivors insurance. Social security is “not something for nothing.” In the long run, the value of the worker’s contributions •will just about equal what he will get back in payments. In the mean time, he has had not only protec tion against possible death but also disability protection. At present the trust fund has a balance of about twenty-two billion dollars, with interest on securities being over one-half billion a year. This, along with future income from covered workers, is expected to be sufficient to meet all expen ditures.
