#170 – The Best Kept Secret to Maximizing Your Social Security Benefits

  • Summary

  • Rick tackles a common misconception about Social Security benefits. Many people opt to take their benefits early to avoid leaving money on the table if they pass away young. However, this very reason is exactly why they should consider waiting and why cognitive biases and emotions keep us locked into making a poor decision. We’ve all heard that by delaying your Social Security benefits, you can statistically significantly increase the amount you receive, ensuring greater financial security in your later years. Join us as we explore why that is logically and what you can do to recognize if cognitive biases and emotions are keeping you from making the best decision.
