In the book Planning a Secure Retirement chapter 4 is titled “Are You Getting the Social Security You Deserve?” In helping people plan for retirement there are more misunderstandings and mistakes in regard to Social Security. It is a shame because it is a system that is meant to help retirees, not trick them.<\/p>\n

Luckily, you do not have to solve the Social Security puzzle alone, nor should you try. You paid into the system, and you should be able to get every penny out of it that you saved. That is where we can help you. Social Security, which is the foundation of your income in retirement, is not something that you can afford to misunderstand. That is why we offer complimentary Social Security workshops where you will learn about the rules of Social Security that you need to know. People can also get a complimentary appointment to come in and get advice on their Social Security filing, regardless of whether they have other assets they want us to manage. We provide this service because we have seen so many people make major, irrevocable Social Security filing mistakes.<\/p>\n

This brings us to an important first point: you have 12 months to change your mind about your Social Security filing. If you have already filed, but it is less than 12 months ago, make an appointment with a financial professional today. If you\u2019ve been receiving benefits for less than 12 months, you can change your mind, but be warned: You have to pay back all benefits received since you first filed.<\/p>\n
