Claiming Social Security without a plan can lead to costly surprises you never saw coming.
In this episode of Money, Taxes & Freedom, Bryan and Shane Hopkins break down six critical things to understand before filing for Social Security. From knowing your benefit amount and coordinating healthcare costs to budgeting, emergency funds, debt decisions, and overlooked spousal benefits, the conversation highlights how Social Security fits into a much bigger retirement picture. They also explore how potential future changes to Social Security could affect planning decisions today—and why preparation matters well before your first check arrives.
