Why is Social Security Planning Services Important?
Social Security Strategies Are Even More Important With Interest Rates So Low
Example:
In 1995, a one-year Bank Certificate of the deposit paid 6.5% interest. Someone with $100,000 would earn $6,500 per year. At today’s low-interest rates (0.05%), $100,000 would only earn only $50 per year! How much money would you need to have in the bank to earn the average Social Security benefit of $1,543? You would need $37,032,000! Therefore, social Security Benefits should be considered to be one of your most valuable assets. That is why Social Security Planning Services are so critical!
While Congress has recently eliminated some of the popular methods of maximizing benefits, many other claiming strategies remain intact. The Social Security regulations are complex, with thousands of pages of rules. There are currently over 500 Social Security calculations possible in determining the best-claiming strategy. For married couples, there are 81 combinations to consider determining the optimum method. While many of the employees at the Social Security Office are well-trained and helpful, many others are not. Do you really want to “roll the dice” and risk making the wrong decision because you weren’t assigned a competent Social Security Administration worker? At Integrated Financial Services, Inc., our social security planning services have helped thousands of people determine the best course of action in choosing from available Social Security Strategies.
