You May Be Entitled to More Money in Social Security Benefits Than You Think
If Social Security benefits are going to make up a significant portion of your income in retirement, it's essential to maximize them.
More than a quarter of Americans say that Social Security benefits alone should be enough to cover all their expenses in retirement, according to a survey from Nationwide. Although your benefits aren't designed to replace all of your income in retirement, they can make it easier to make ends meet. You may also be entitled to more than just your standard retirement benefit, which can help those monthly checks go further during your golden years.
