When It is a Bad Idea to Give Full Survivor Benefits to Your Spouse
from Haws Federal Advisors Podcast · host Dallen Haws
Survivor benefits can often be the difference between a spouse having a comfortable retirement or a stressful one. So getting this one right is crucial. But does it always make sense to leave your spouse full survivor benefits? No. I believe that there are specific times where you and your spouse would be better off with partial survivor benefits or no survivor benefits at all.
