Solved: 10 Social Security Mysteries

Social Security is America's largest source of retirement income. But most of us have little or no idea how it works. Worse yet, misinformation causes poor retirement decisions. Here are straight facts about Social Security's top 10 mysteries.

First, some background. Social Security is insurance, paid for by workers and employers. Only workers and their families benefit from it. It insures against loss of your work income due to retirement (or age), disability or death. It has an annual cost of living adjustment (COLA) equal to the inflation rate, to protect your long-term buying power.

Mystery #1: Will Social Security be there for me? Social Security can pay 100% of all promised benefits until 2033. After 2033 it can pay about 75% of promised benefits. There are numerous options to extend solvency indefinitely with a mix of tax increases and/or benefit cuts. If you're a pessimist, subtract 25% from your SSA benefit estimate.
