3 Seemingly Innocent Moves That Could Slash Your Social Security Income
You'll probably rely pretty heavily on Social Security to pay your bills during retirement. Even if you kick off your senior years with a decent chunk of money in savings, you could end up depleting your IRA or 401(k) in your lifetime.
The great thing about Social Security is that it's designed to pay you a monthly benefit for the rest of your life. And if you play your cards right, you can help ensure that your monthly benefit is as generous as possible. These seemingly innocent mistakes, however, could result in a lower benefit -- and more financial struggles throughout your senior years.
