I’m almost there as well and I’m curious for those who have retired what do you do for health insurance, and social security? Take it early or wait?

Health insurance, there are too many variables for a definitive answer.

Social Security is much easier, just 'do the math'. You will come up with a break-even point, where at a certain age you will start being ahead of the game. No history of longevity of males in my family, so I took it at 62. If I live past 79 1/2, I will start losing money, but if that happens I will have outlived all the other males in my family history by far so I won't care.
