WHAT YOU’LL LEARN:
- Why the Social Security shortfall doesn't mean your benefits disappear completely.
- How S corp distributions reduce payroll tax and what you give up.
- Why Social Security isn't an investment account.
- How the $184,500 wage base creates a tax and benefit sweet spot.
- Why your retirement plan shouldn't depend on receiving full Social Security benefits.
