Presents information about the benefit programs provided by the Social Security Administration. |
| Note |
"For most Americans, Social Security is their largest financial asset, worth hundreds of thousands of dollars, and indexed against increases in the cost of living. It is also an incredibly complicated program, consisting of 2,728 core rules and thousands of codicils. As a result, Americans lose billions of dollars in unclaimed benefits every year. The editor of this book has sifted through many thousands of pages of SSA publications to find the answers to the most frequently asked questions about Social Security retirement benefits and how to maximize them and presents them here in a useful and coherent manner." -- (Source of summary not specified) |
