Summary
In this podcast episode, 138, host Gary Heldt interviews Tom Hegna, CLU, ChFC, CASL,, a well-known economist and retirement income expert. They discuss the importance of having guaranteed income in retirement and the potential risks of relying solely on investments. Tom emphasizes the benefits of delaying Social Security benefits and how it can increase your long-term income. Tom also talks about the importance of having a financial professional in your arsenal and recommends utilizing free webinars and resources to educate yourself on retirement planning. Here are the key takeaways: Having guaranteed lifetime income can improve your portfolio performance, increase your happiness, and potentially allow you to live longer. Delaying Social Security benefits can increase your long-term income, especially for the breadwinner in a couple, as it covers both lives. It's important to consider the health of both partners in a couple when deciding on when to take Social Security benefits. Working with a financial professional and utilizing free webinars and resources can help educate you on retirement planning and make informed decisions. As tax rates are potentially going up, it's important to consider how this will impact your retirement income and plan accordingly.

Seven Steps to Retirement Security. He specializes in creating simple and powerful retirement solutions based on math and science, not opinions.
