Are you aware of the many factors that affect retirement planning?
Then you should know that we want you to understand what Social Security can mean to you and your family's financial future.
Sounds good. Now, how do the retirement benefits work exactly?
Social Security replaces a percentage of a worker s pre-retirement income based on their lifetime earnings. The portion of your pre-retirement wages that Social Security replaces is based on your highest 35 years of earnings and varies depending on how much you earn and when you choose to start benefits.
Is there more than social security I should consider in my plan?
Remember, on average, retirement beneficiaries receive 40% of their pre-retirement income from Social Security.

The money you pay in taxes isn't held in a personal account for you to use when you get benefits. We use your taxes to pay people who are getting benefits right now.
