Under current legislation, the age at which a qualified person is eligible to draw full social security retirement benefits from the Social Security Administration is 67 years of age.  If we hypothesize that you are currently 20 years old, then you will be eligible for social security 47 years from now, in the year 2061.  This is more than 17,000 days from now.

   According to US Census figures for U.S. residents, by approximation, a male who is currently 20 years old has an average of 55.3 years until his expected age of death, while a female who is currently 20 years old has an average of 60.1 years until her expected age of death.  {Source: Statistical Abstract of the United States 2012; calculations from Table 105, p77.}
