What Early Retirees Need to Know About Bridging Income Before Social Security Kicks In
Overview
Retiring early is a goal many people strive for. And with enough savings, it's something you may be able to pull off.
But early retirement can be a challenge, as you may need to support yourself with savings and investments without Social Security benefits. The earliest age you can claim benefits is 62.
