Wait until after full retirement age, and they grow by about 2.3% per month, up to a 24% boost by age 70. The average retired worker receives around $2,776 per month, but those who wait until 70 can earn up to $3,334 per month. Men see higher checks, while women average around $2,691. The optimal claiming age varies based on individual circumstances, including life expectancy and financial needs.
