👋 Hey everyone! As more Americans turn 65, it's crucial to understand your Social Security retirement age and its impact on your investment strategy. Here's what you need to know:

🔹 The full Social Security retirement age has gradually risen from 65 to 67 due to changes enacted in 1983.
🔹 Those born between 1943 and 1954 have a full retirement age of 66, while those born in 1960 or later have a full retirement age of 67.
🔹 Waiting until full retirement age ensures you receive 100% of the benefits you've earned.
🔹 If you delay claiming past your full retirement age and up to age 70, you can receive an 8% annual benefit increase.

Remember, the decisions about when to claim Social Security and sign up for Medicare should be made independently to maximize your benefits.
