4. The maximum Social Security benefits will increase

As you can see, the Social Security changes coming are mainly good, and this makes us more than happy. The maximum Social Security benefits will increase, and this is wonderful for those planning their golden years.

This applies to everyone who is waiting for their FRA, or full retirement age. The maximum Social Security benefits will increase from $3,627 to $3,822. This is something good for those who wait until FRA, which is now set at 66 or 67 depending on the year of their birth.

The trick here is to wait for that FRA because if you plan to retire earlier, you will have to be okay with receiving smaller monthly payments. This is kind of like a financial strategy game, and you should see if you can manage to wait until FRA and get the most out of your benefits.

    VERIFY: Did Joe Biden vote to tax social security benefits twice during his Senate career?
    The Verify Team was sent an email, in which a viewer claimed that Joe Biden voted to tax social security benefits two times in his career. This is true.

    If you are worried about your SS BENEFITS BEING TAXED BY STATE AND LOCAL GOVERNMENTS YOU BETTER VOTE FOR TRUMP. He has mentioned many times that he will end taxation of those benefits in office AND LOWER THE INFLATION RATES. If you don’t understand what oil prices have to do with inflation, let me give you a hint.
    Oil as you know makes gas and diesel fuel that powers delivery of everything in everyday life. BUT, do you know it is also used in farming as fertilizer for food production, plastics for food packaging, manufacturing of just about anything in todays needs, including syringes for your meds and some clothing.
    In this country we have more oil and shale oil than anywhere in the world yet these idiots in government cater to the far left and want to keep oil production down.

    They drained the strategic oil reserves which is for National defense just to lower oil prices for a couple days so it looks like they are doing something. My costs of my products I sell have gone up 115%. I had to raise up my sales prices 120%. VOTE FOR TRUMP OTHERWISE THE LITTLE MONEY YOUR COMPLAINING ABOUT NOW WILL BE 10 times worst under K Harris the liar in chief. I live in California and she has destroyed this state and San Francisco with her ignorant policies. Most Californians will agree except those that would vote for her because she is Black or a woman. Do you really want those characteristics to be your deciding vote or do you want our borders closed, low inflation and a strong military and police dept. The choice is yours. Vote early don’t let anyone else fill out your ballot.
