Don’t make these Social Security mistakes

Everyone makes mistakes. We forget things, overlook errors, and lose our way from time to time. As Alexander Pope told us, to err is human.

The other part of that quote is that to forgive is divine. So if you are currently making any of these common Social Security mistakes, the best way to forgive yourself is to change course right now. A few things you should avoid include:

  • Claiming too early
  • Forgetting spousal benefits, SSI, or Social Security tax
  • Not having a backup plan
