Retirement is an exciting milestone. Planning becomes even more crucial, once you get within a few years of saying goodbye to your career. As we turn 60 and inch closer to retirement, there are important questions to answer.

Choosing when to file for benefits is a critical decision that will affect your monthly retirement income for the rest of your life.
