Sidebar: Making Sense of Your Retirement Statements

"Your Social Security Statement" is a great personal tool that Social Security sends to all working Americans, beginning at age 25. It is mailed out annually, approximately three to four months prior to your birthday. A sample of this statement is attached, using "Wanda Worker" for illustrative purposes. You'll note that it includes an individual history of yearly earnings, as well as a personalized statement of estimated benefits. Use your own statement to look at the different scenarios that age plays in your retirement decision. Visit www.socialsecurity.gov/mystatement for more information.
