Claiming benefits without a clear understanding of the system’s complexities can significantly and permanently reduce your lifetime income—and potentially that of your spouse.
This complimentary seminar is designed to provide clarity on recent changes, filing strategies, legislative impacts, and the integration of Social Security within a broader retirement income plan. Our focus is education—not sales.
Each attendee will receive a complimentary Social Security Maximization Report—a personalized resource to further guide your retirement planning.

No. The seminar is strictly professional, as we do not promote, work with, or accept professionals who intend to “sell” to attendees. Business cards and additional contact information may be shared; however, our goal is to provide you with the necessary information for a more informed retirement decision.
