Social Security plays a very important role in your finances. It’s not the most interesting topic and can be complex but you should be educated on the basics of this system as many people unknowingly discount the impact Social Security will have on their retirement or for their survivors. Here are some topics we cover:
- Will Social Security be there for me?
- At what age can I take Social Security?
- What is the spousal benefit?
- How do I know how much I get?
- Should I delay taking my benefits?
Check out our next episode, Part 2, for information on survivor and spousal benefits from Social Security.
