Well anyone can go out and get a fixed investment that carrys no to little risk so if there was some sort of limit to where the money was invested it would out perform SS everytime. There is a city in Texas that opted out of SS before they passed a law making it manditory. The city collects the money and invest it for the people (something like that) and they are retiring younger and with a larger retirment than the average American.
