Guilderland Public Library: Navigating Social Security

Spotlight Newsroom by Spotlight Newsroom
May 19, 2022

Reading Time: 3 mins read

Well before you retire, it’s important to weigh all the options on collecting your Social Security benefits.

This decision could potentially result in substantial lost income if not properly evaluated beforehand.

Arm yourself with the knowledge needed to formulate a sound strategy by attending this one-hour virtual session, “Navigating Your Social Security Benefits,” on Tuesday, May 24, at 6 p.m.

We’ll obtain answers to key questions, including:
– Will Social Security be there for me?
– How much can I expect to receive?
– When should I apply for Social Security?
– How can I maximize my benefits?
– Will Social Security be enough to live on in retirement?
Sign up on the Events tab of our website for this program, presented by John N. Kalil, Jr., LUTCF, founder and president of Retirement Solutions, LLC in Saratoga Springs.

Virtual Storytimes

Our storytimes for ages birth through age five feature special themes incorporating books, music and lots of fun! During May, live (and lively) storytimes are held Tuesday and Wednesday mornings at 10:30 a.m. on Zoom. Register on the Events tab of our website to receive the link.

New Podcast Episode

“How Did You Find It?” is our monthly podcast highlighting GPL news and offerings, books, entertainment, and much more, with Librarians Kathleen and Kristina as your hosts. This month’s episode, unveiled Friday, May 20, features a Summer Reading Program sneak preview, plus an introduction to our newest librarian. You can access this podcast on most major platforms, including Apple, Spotify, Google Podcasts, Pocket Casts, Breaker and Radio Public, plus listennotes.com. Reach out to us anytime with feedback and suggestions at: [email protected]
