Episode description

Social Security is still an important part of any retirement plan. It acts as a good supplement to a pension or other income from IRAs or 401Ks. But how it fits in to your particular plan and when is also important.

That's why in this episode of the podcast I talk with financial planner and Social Security guru Devin Carroll about how to make the right choices when you are a few years out and when you are ready to walk out the door and go home for good.

In this episode you will learn:

  • How to decide when to claim benefits
  • What you should know about benefits before retiring
  • The biggest mistakes people make
  • About survivor benefits
  • About ex-spouse benefits
