Claiming Social Security Early Could Cut Benefits More Than Future Cuts
Original: Social Security Cuts May Be Coming, but a Self-Imposed Cut Could Slash Your Benefits Even More
Financial commentators warn that while Social Security may face automatic benefit cuts in the coming years if Congress does not address funding shortfalls, retirees who claim benefits early can permanently reduce their own payments by an even larger margin. The advice circulating is to weigh claiming age carefully, since delaying benefits can offset some of the risk of future reductions.
Why now: Ongoing concern about Social Security's funding shortfall is prompting personal finance advice on how retirees can protect their benefits.
