According to the Social Security Administration, the current average Social Security benefit is a measly $1,269 -- and remember recipients paid into the fund and are being repaid their earnings in the form of barely livable retirement checks.
Out of that amount, more than 42.5 million Social Security recipients get retirement benefits, and with the government making about $55 billion in monthly payments, that amounts to an average of $1,290 per month for every person getting Social Security benefits on a retired worker's work record.ut of that amount, more than 42.5 million Social Security recipients get retirement benefits, and with the government making about $55 billion in monthly payments, that amounts to an average of $1,290 per month for every person getting Social Security benefits on a retired worker's work record.
