Social Security Basics

"Social Security Basics" is a comprehensive yet accessible guide that demystifies the complex world of Social Security benefits. Author Devin Carroll, drawing from his extensive experience helping distressed and confused clients, has created this essential resource to help readers confidently navigate the Social Security system. The book is strategically divided into two main parts. The first part covers the fundamental aspects of Social Security that are crucial for everyone to understand. The second part specifically addresses the unique rules and considerations for public servants, with detailed explanations of the Windfall Elimination Provision (WEP) and the Government Pension Offset (GPO). Carroll's motivation for writing this book stemmed from witnessing firsthand how the complicated and verbose nature of Social Security rules often left people frustrated and potentially missing out on their rightful benefits. Through years of studying, speaking engagements, and writing about Social Security, he realized that most questions could be answered through a solid grasp of the basic principles. Duration - 2h 58m.
