Social Security has been around for nearly 90 years. Roughly 66 million Americans receive Social Security benefits. Millions more will begin collecting benefits in the coming years.
With those numbers in mind, you might think that nearly every adult in the U.S. would have a solid understanding of Social Security. However, that's not the case, according to the Nationwide Retirement Institute 2023 Social Security Survey. Here are three key things about Social Security that most Americans get dead wrong.
Nationwide and The Harris Poll asked 1,806 U.S. adults ages 18 and older a wide range of questions about Social Security earlier this summer. In particular, the survey included 21 questions relating to general Social Security topics. Only eight questions were answered correctly by respondents at least 50% of the time.
