    Podcast Extra: AARP on Social Security’s COLA and the Road Ahead

    A bigger Social Security check doesn’t necessarily mean more breathing room in your budget. In this podcast extra, Retirement.Radio’s Matt McClure talks with Bill Sweeney, AARP’s senior vice president of government affairs, about the 2027 cost-of-living adjustment and the financial pressures facing retirees. They discuss why the annual increase may fall short of what many older Americans need, how Medicare premiums can affect that increase, and why Congress faces growing urgency to address Social Security’s long-term funding challenges. Sweeney also shares practical resources to help you review your earnings history, explore benefit estimates, and make more informed claiming decisions. --- 📻 Listen LIVE every Saturday at 7:30 AM ET and Sunday at 8:30 AM ET on News + Talk 99.9 WXJB: https://www.wxjbfm.com/ 🌐 Visit our website: https://takepointwealth.com/ 🎧 Listen to the podcast: https://takepointwealth.podbean.com/ 📺 Subscribe on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@TakePointOnRetirement --- 📞Connect with Erick Arnett: Phone (Tampa Bay) --- (352) 707-2889 Phone (Nationwide Clients) --- (888) 991-1287 Email --- Erick@takepointwealth.com Website --- https://takepointwealth.com/ LinkedIn --- https://www.linkedin.com/in/erick-jon-arnett-4b3bbb7   👍 Like, Comment, and Subscribe for more content on retirement planning, financial planning, 401(k) analysis, and portfolio management --- Erick and his team are experienced independent investment and tax advisors who have been helping individuals, families, and business owners for over 20 years.
