It is estimated 10,000 baby boomers are retiring each day. This trend is expected to continue for the next 16 years. Most Americans nearing or at retirement age have little understanding of their benefits and as a result Social Security planning has now come to the forefront.

Topics include:

 

  • Reasons why you should consider adding Social Security and retirement planning.
  • A process for planning
  • Understanding the benefit calculation
  • Analyzing the benefit statement and gaining access to your online account
  • What happens if you take benefits early, at full-retirement or delay
