Bad News For Your Social Security Benefits

by Mark Kenney CFP®, CTS™

It’s no secret that the Social Security Trust Fund is in trouble.

Some of the latest projections say the fund could run out of money by 2035, if not sooner.

Unfortunately, the pandemic made this problem even worse.

Here’s why…

By April of 2020 23 million people had lost their jobs

That means 23 million people were no longer contributing to Social Security.

But it doesn’t stop there.

The cost of living increase for Social Security in 2023 was a whopping 8.7% — the highest increase in over 40 years

That’s great news for retirees today. But it’s bad news in the long run because the higher payments put even more strain on the Social Security Trust Fund. And there’s a greater chance your benefits could be cut.

So if you haven’t already filed for Social Security benefits, this may cause you to rethink your strategy.
