The Social Security crisis is no longer a distant problem—it’s arriving in 2034, a full year earlier than expected. In this Wealth Wise Women Podcast episode, we break down the truth behind recent headlines, the bills in Congress that claim to offer solutions (but few really do), and what women specifically need to know as longer life expectancies and spousal benefits increase their risk. This is a must-listen episode for anyone planning for retirement.
