According to the latest official projections, the Social Security trust fund is expected to be depleted by 2033—just eight years from now. Benefit checks will be slashed by 23% by 2035, less than a decade from now, unless Congress intervenes.
That’s a near-certainty based on the government’s data. If anything, the Social Security shortfall situation may actually be worse because the projections assumed people would suddenly start having more kids, and there would be much more illegal immigration.
It’s a BIG deal for most Social Security recipients: 63% rely on their benefit checks for at least half of their total income, and for 44%, it’s three-quarters of their income, according to the Pew Research Center.
So the question is: Will you bet your retirement security on Congress getting its act together in time?
Or would you rather take control now, so you never have to slash your lifestyle or give up the things that make retirement worth looking forward to?
The earlier-than-expected depletion of the Social Security trust fund means you’ll likely need to save far more than you originally planned. How much more depends on your age, but one thing is clear: You need a safer, smarter strategy starting today.
