INFOCUS: Social Security Workshop
Join us for InFocus Financial Advisors Saavy Social Security Workshop.
If there is one thing many people can agree on it is not Social Security.
“Claim as soon as you can, you might not live long enough to spend it.”
“Wait it out and claim later so you can get the higher pay out, get your money back from Uncle Sam.”
When and how to claim Social Security is far more individually specific than many people realize. This presentation covers some of the specifics behind Social Security that can help someone decide how best to claim for their own unique situation.
