Worried About Claiming Social Security Too Early or Too Late? This Could Be Your Happy Medium.
You aren't limited to one extreme or the other.
Overview
You know your age when you sign up for Social Security matters, but once you dig into your options, it's easy to get stuck in analysis paralysis. Claim too early, and you could permanently short-change yourself. Claim too late and you risk getting nothing at all, but your family could get more after you're gone.
Rather than risk either extreme, you can also choose to sign up at your full retirement age (FRA). But this may not be when you think.
