3 Great Reasons to Take Social Security Benefits at 62
When it comes to filing for Social Security, you get your share of choices. If you wait until full retirement age (FRA) to sign up, which is either 66, 67, or somewhere in between, you'll get the full monthly benefit you're entitled to based on your wage history. If you delay your filing beyond FRA, you'll boost your monthly benefit -- for life.
But there's also the option to sign up for benefits before FRA. In fact, the earliest age you can claim benefits is 62, and it happens to be a very popular choice among seniors. Here's are a few good reasons to sign up for Social Security at 62 yourself.
