April is Financial Literacy Month


Financial Literacy Month is "a time to focus on finances both now and for the future. One of the most important financial issues for any worker and his or her spouse is retirement planning. During Financial Literacy Month, we encourage everyone to give some thought to retirement planning. 
 
One of the best places to start your retirement planning is with Social Security’s Retirement Estimator at www.socialsecurity.gov/estimator. Workers can use the Estimator to test different retirement ages, learn how to maximize retirement benefits by delaying retirement, and find out how working after retirement might affect benefits. 


We also recommend a visit to www.mymoney.gov. This government site has a wealth of information from multiple agencies covering virtually every financial issue that Americans may face over the course of a lifetime—from buying a home to financing college to saving for retirement." Source:SSA
