How do I maximize Social Security and/or my company pension?

Define the issue in a way so that visitors know you understand exactly what they are experiencing.

The Scenario

With over 500 possible Social Security claiming strategies, it can be difficult for you to know which provides the most amount of money over your lifetime. The challenges include understanding joint life expectancies, complicated Social Security rules, accounting for inflation, and the opportunity cost of waiting to claim benefits. Similarly, if you have a pension, how do you know which pension payment option is best? How can you be sure you are making the right choice with these important benefits? Without running the numbers, it’s likely going to be difficult.

Key Considerations

  • How are you determining when to claim your Social Security benefits or pension?
  • Are you confident those factors are leading to the correct decision?
  • Is it worthwhile to have an advisor review a decision that will affect the rest of your life?
