Don't Retire Until You Know This About Social Security
You may be at a point in your career where you're counting down the weeks until retirement. And you may be in the process of making some fun post-career plans -- maybe a nice trip or an extended stay with family you haven't been able to visit in quite some time.
But before you retire, it's important to get a solid handle on Social Security. That doesn't just mean figuring out a filing age, though. It also means making sure you're not putting more financial emphasis on those benefits than you should be.
