Do you have a plan to help maximize your Social Security benefits and minimize your taxes? Social Security may be one of the largest sources of income in retirement while taxes may be one of the largest expenses. Not properly planning for both can lead to less income in retirement.

Join us for a special event at Elgin Community College where we will discuss the following important topics:

  • What’s new and changing for Social Security and taxes in 2025.
  • The changing financial landscape for those approaching retirement.
  • The impact that proposed changes to tax laws, market volatility, high interest rates and rising inflation may have on your retirement income.²
  • Why taxes can be one of your biggest retirement expenses without a proper plan in place.
  • Immediate, actionable steps to help protect your savings from heavy, unnecessary “retirement taxes.”
  • How Social Security Benefits relate to, and affect, your taxes in retirement and how to avoid excessive taxation.
  • Claiming strategies, common mistakes to avoid and planning techniques to help you maximize your Social Security benefits.
  • How you can create tax-free retirement income and potentially lower your tax bracket in retirement.
  • Planning for longevity, inflation, and future tax increases to ensure you won’t OUTLIVE your money in retirement.
  • And MUCH more!
