 i hope when you take your pension at age 62 you wait until at least your full retirement age to think about taking your social security benefit or maybe you just want to follow up with us and tell us what's going on for your bigger financial picture and we can help guide you around the social security decision so give us a holler follow up we'd love to help you out but yes i think waiting especially as the benefit builds is a wonderful strategy presuming you don't need the money
