In 2013, AMAC—The Association of Mature American Citizens—took a big step with the creation of the AMAC Foundation, Inc., a registered 501(c)(3) non-profit entity designed to serve Americans. The Foundation’s mission is to help protect and ensure the financial security, health, and social lives of current and future mature Americans, and to help Americans navigate the bewildering array of decisions they need to make.
The Foundation’s projects and plans include providing factual information that improves understanding of the positive value of Social Security and Medicare and the current and long-term challenges these programs face, as well as providing interpretations by Certified Social Security Advisors through AMAC publications, workshops, webinars, podcasts, and telephone support.
In addition, the Foundation serves all Americans in a variety of capacities, including provision of a source of education on the principles of American Free Enterprise, long-term retirement financial planning, and preparing for life—and potential employment—after retirement.

Is there a benefit for being married more than 10 years?
Miki,
There is no special Social Security benefit for being married for more than 10 years, unless you are divorced and looking to collect spousal benefits from your ex-husband. In that case, you need to have been married for at least 10 years in order to collect spousal benefits from your ex. If you need more detailed information, please email us at ssadvisor@amacfoundation.org, or call us at 1.888.750.2622.
