For someone my age full SS benefits kick in at 67
That would be 10 years, not 30
That's not quite how life expectancy works, though. The average FROM BIRTH is 77.5 years (I guess, looking at the table I linked, that would be men and women combined). However, by the time you hit 67, an American male has a remaining life expectancy of about 16 1/2 more years, while a woman has one of about 18.

16 is still significantly less than 3 decades

Just came here to post that. And you can begin taking Social Security at 62, at which point you have an expected 20 more years of life left.
And 25 percent of people live into their 90s.

Thats just a marketing tool. Theres no way you believe the average 99 yer old has about 3 more years of life expectancy
