About this listen
"Just 10% plan to wait until age 70" to claim Social Security in retirement — and it's not because of a knowledge problem.
We discuss this from a new survey that suggests most Americans may be claiming Social Security earlier than is financially optimal because fear is driving the decision. They understand the math—but they're still claiming early.
We also answer a listener 2-part question about where to park short-term cash in inflationary times and to actually buy Treasuries.
And we wrap up the segment to bring you our newest segment from you, the audience: "Retire to Something". If you'd like to share your story about what you are retiring "to", simply look for the link in the new "This Week in Retirement Newsletter" and fill out the super-quick form.
