Social Security Social Security is an important part of your total retirement/estate planning strategy. I suggest that you should start planning for the part Social Security will play in your strategy when you first think “I really ought to put something aside for retirement.” Is twenty too early? Not at all, if you intend to embark on the execution of a disciplined, life-long retirement strategy. Is sixty-two too late? No, but it has been my experience that the options available to you will become fewer as you grow older. The earlier you begin planning, the more choices you will have. In this context, “choices” means “more opportunities to maximize returns.” I find that you can contribute most when people are between the ages of 30 and 50. Though I can and have helped older people make the best choices for them, it remains a fact that the number of choices available to them are fewer. And Social Security is like any other investment: as your circumstances change (income, marital status, children, age, health), you should re-evaluate your plan in light of your new circumstances, just as you would with any other investment.
