Waiting for a bigger Social Security check can feel responsible—until lived experience tells a different story. A listener’s regret about delaying benefits until age 70 sparks a candid conversation about timing, trade-offs, and what retirement really looks like across decades. Glenn explores how health, lifestyle, taxes, and changing priorities all factor into when to claim Social Security, and why decisions that look good on paper don’t always feel right in real life. The discussion emphasizes aligning financial choices with personal values, realistic expectations, and the different seasons of retirement.
