On this week’s Hanson McClain’s Money Matters, Scott and Pat take several calls about Social Security, before discussing how to plan for retirement when you have a pension.
Scott and Pat take a call from a man who wants to know how the talks of trade tariffs will affect his retirement. A 74-year-old man with a government pension wants to know if he is being short-changed on his Social Security benefits after working and paying into the fund for over 30 years. A caller, whose mother co-signed a student loan for her grandson just before she died, wants to know if the estate is still responsible for the loan. A 62-year old caller with an $80,000 a year pension is concerned that Social Security might not be around much longer. He wants to know if he should apply now or wait until later.
