Charleston's Retirement CoachA bigger Social Security check doesn’t always mean a better retirement. In this episode of Charleston’s Retirement Coach, Brandon Bowen breaks down a real‑world story of regret from waiting until age 70 to file for benefits. The conversation explores why Social Security timing is about more than monthly income, how break‑even math really works, and what people often overlook about health, quality of life, and opportunity cost. Brandon walks through how filing decisions interact with savings, debt, and retirement income planning as a whole.
