Savvy Social Security Planning for Women

  • Liberty School (Saline Adult Education) 7265 N Ann Arbor St Saline, MI, 48176 United States (map)

What Women Need To Know About Retirement Income and Social Security

Social Security is one of the few income sources that keeps up with inflation and lasts for life. But most women fail to maximize their benefits because they don't understand the little-known rules that can help them get more out of the system.

At this workshop you will learn…

  • How much Social Security you stand to receive over your lifetime
  • How the decisions you make in your 60s can determine the amount of income you’ll have in your 80s
  • How to take advantage of spousal benefits, survivor benefits, divorced-spouse benefits, and even divorced-spouse survivor benefits
  • How to coordinate your own retirement benefit with benefits you might receive as a spouse or divorced spouse
  • Why you should consider your husband’s life expectancy when deciding when to claim your own retirement benefit.
  • What to do if your husband or ex-husband dies
  • What to do if your marital status changes
  • How to plan for the extra-long life

This workshop is for women and for men who have women in their lives (wives, sisters, mothers). It features essential information all women need to have if they are concerned about financial security in retirement.

Rules and strategies you need to know…

  • How to receive a spousal benefit while your own benefit builds delayed credits
  • How to switch from one benefit to another to have income now and later
  • Why you and your husband can’t both receive spousal benefits on each other’s record at the same time
  • What you need to do to get divorced-spouse benefits
  • What you MUST consider before remarrying
