Deciding when to claim Social Security is one of the most important retirement choices you’ll make, but most people approach it the wrong way. They pick an age early, cling to it for years, and assume the “best” decision never changes. In reality, the right claiming strategy shifts as your life shifts: your spouse’s benefit, your health, your spending, your tax plan, and even how much joy you’re getting out of retirement all matter far more than a hard rule.In this episode, Ari explains why Social Security should never be treated as a one-time, set-it-and-forget-it decision. Through real client stories, a behind-the-scenes look at how Roth conversions, RMDs, and retirement income interact, and a simple framework that fits any household, this conversation reframes the entire question. Sometimes delaying boosts long-term security. Sometimes taking it early frees up your cash flow for meaningful years. And in many cases, the “optimal” age changes as your plan changes.If you’ve been wondering when to claim Social Security, how it fits into Roth IRA conversions, what it means for your surviving spouse, or how to build a flexible retirement income plan, this episode gives you clarity without the jargon and confidence without the fear.-Advisory services are offered through Root Financial Partners, LLC, an SEC-registered investment adviser.
