Social Security Class in Uptown Butte to Help Residents Plan for Retirement

When should you start collecting Social Security?  How much can you expect to receive?  And what exactly happens to your benefits if you decide to keep working?

These are just a few of the questions that will be addressed during an upcoming Social Security class in Uptown Butte. The informational session is scheduled for next Thursday, October 22, at 6:45pm in the Thornton Building Classroom, located at 65 E. Broadway.  Those planning on attending should use the Wyoming Street entrance.

Social Security plays an important role in retirement planning but understanding how the system works isn't always easy.  Between deciding when to claim benefits and figuring out how much money you will receive, there are plenty of decisions that need to be made and that's where this class comes in. The session will also cover spousal and survivor benefits along with strategies that could help individuals maximize their lifetime Social Security income.

Whether retirement is right around the corner or still several years away, understanding these details can make a difference when planning for the future.

The goal is simple.  Give people the information they need to make confident financial decisions.  For Butte residents looking to get a better understanding of Social Security, next Thursday's class offers an opportunity to get answers and to start planning ahead.  You don't need to be approaching retirement to benefit from the information.  Anyone interested in learning more about the system and the options available will find the discussion worthwhile. Reservations are not required, simply show up to be included.
