Social Security
Most Americans in some capacity will benefit from Social Security retirement income. It's probably also a safe assumptions that many Americans are winging it with their election of benefits.
What is Social Security?
If you worked for a designated amount of time, or you are/were married to someone who did, then you should be entitled to an income stream in retirement based on a percentage of your earned income in your working years.
​
Social Security, though a helpful piece of the puzzle, is not intended to be a complete source of retirement funds, so it's important that retirees also take advantage of their own investment programs and employer-sponsored retirement plans.
Why should I care?
By not properly aligning your selections for benefits with their other retirement savings, you could be missing out on thousands of dollars in guaranteed income.
​
This may be due to claiming benefits too early without considering assets that could be accessed in the early years of retirement.
