Another interesting item from the SS statement. Apparently you only need to work 10 years to receive benefits. You can receive up to 4 credits per year, 1 for each of the first $1000 in wages. At 40 credits you receive retirement benefits. Survivors and disability benefits require fewer credits (it doesn't say how many).
