A new report warns that Social Security's trust fund could run short of reserves by 2032, potentially leading to benefit reductions if lawmakers fail to act. In this episode of Winning Retirement, Greg and Kristen break down what that could mean for retirees and whether claiming benefits early is the right move.

They explore possible solutions Congress may consider—including higher payroll taxes, raising the retirement age, and adjusting cost-of-living increases—and discuss why Social Security should be viewed as a foundation of retirement income, not the entire plan. You'll also hear why maximizing Social Security isn't always the same as maximizing your retirement, and why having a comprehensive income strategy may be more important than ever.
