But, if I get a state pension (assuming it is not obliterated by the time I retire), I will not get to collect Social Security because it will be offset.

I would have my house paid off by now and I could be setting something aside myself. Instead, I currently have a full-time job and three part-time jobs to supplement that. 35% of my paycheck is gone before I get it.
