Social Security: What You Need To Know
Despite media reports and speculation, Social Security plays a pivotal role in your retirement planning. As you plan your retirement, you need to know:
- How are my Social Security benefits computed?
- How much can I expect to receive?
- What are my options?
- Which Social Security benefits am I entitled to?
- What Medicare rules apply to higher-income beneficiaries?
Join me for lunch and an enlightening discussion with our special guest speaker, a Public Affairs Specialist from the Albany Social Security Office.
Come with questions you’ve never had answered, and learn what’s essential for your retirement well-being!

About Pearls of Wisdom
Pearls of Wisdom is an educational series developed to give women of Capital District an opportunity to network, discover, and discuss topics of interest. Each quarter, we explore topics and issues relevant to women. Past programs have included:
- Identity Theft
- Tax Planning
- Estate Planning
This is not your typical financial seminar! You’ll leave with information not a pitch to buy financial products you don’t want and don’t understand. In other words, there are no strings attached.
Pearls of Wisdom is sponsored by Godfrey Financial Associates, an independent Registered Investment Advisory firm. We are dedicated to providing quality programs and services for women of the Capital District.
Please check out our community and events page to get the date and time to our next program.
