Social Security Claiming 

For many of us, Social Security is a major source of our retirement income and for others, it is an important supplement to pensions and personal savings. Unlike other sources of retirement income, Social Security offers a unique combination of benefits such as a predetermined amount of income, steady income, lifetime income, inflation adjusted income and survivor benefits. However, according to a recent study, retirees will collectivily lose $3.4 trillion in potential income that they could spend during their retirement because they claimed Social Security at a sub-optimal time1.

Now that baby boomers are approaching their 60s, it is a great time to look at Social Security as an important source of retirement income.
