Social Security can be complex and often misunderstood. And it’s vital you understand how it can work for you because it’s such a large component of your retirement income.
In this short video class you will learn:
The average household retiring today will receive between $500,000 and $1,000,000 in Social Security benefits, according to the Urban Institute. And depending on how you file for your benefits could either add or take away how much you receive.
After helping thousands of our clients navigate their Social Security benefits, we’ve found that when our clients learn more on what Social Security does for them, they feel more confident and have a greater chance of increasing their monthly benefit.
That’s why we made this video. We believe that when you’re educated about Social Security, you’ll enter retirement with greater confidence knowing the system is working for you.
