Episode description

Best Time To Take Social Security and Why Target Date Funds Are Good, but Not Perfect

What’s the best time to take Social Security? Fiduciary financial advisor Wes Moss breaks down several scenarios to help you optimize your Social Security check. Also, target date funds have long been a popular option as a “set it and forget it” easy button for investing. Wes shares why this “TV dinner” of investing is a good – but not perfect – option.

Plus, Christa shares your #AskWes questions and Wes gives his take. All this and more on the July 15, 2025 Ask an Advisor episode of the Clark Howard podcast. Submit your questions at clark.com/ask.
