With the stock market crash of 2000-2002 and again in 2008-2009, millions of Americans lost BILLIONS of dollars. From 2000-2002, 80% of Americans lost half or more of their entire financial portfolio during that three year period. It took investors about 3.5 years to recover from that bear market. In 2008-2009, the market crashed again with a decline of more than (-37%) in just over 7 months!  
 

Millions who were planning to retire can no longer afford to retire.

 
The consequences of investors not having their money in wealth-building tools that would provide principal protection in down markets and that would guarantee a rate of return with a lifetime income has been ominous. As a result of all these issues, “retirement income shortfall” is becoming a major concern for business owners who now contemplate working longer in order to save more for retirement.

Growth, Value, or Both

More than half of Americans have direct investments in the stock market, and it’s probably safe to say that they would like their investments to grow.1

Most investors would also like to believe their investments have value. So what does it mean to invest in a growth mutual fund or a value mutual fund? The labels “growth” and “value” reflect different investment approaches that mutual fund managers use when making portfolio decisions.

Two Strategies for Pursuing Results

Growth stocks are companies that appear poised to grow. These companies generally do not pay dividends because they are more likely to reinvest profits. A growth company may be on the verge of a market breakthrough or acquisition, or may occupy a strong position in a growing industry. Generally, smaller companies have more potential to grow, but a larger company may also be a growth stock. As you might expect, growth stocks carry substantial risk.

Value investing tries to identify companies that are undervalued by the market. Their stock prices may be lower in relation to their earnings, assets, or prospects.

Deciding When to Begin

 
A presidential commission has recommended increasing the early retirement age for Social Security to 64 and the full retirement age to 69. Fortunately, the plan, if adopted, would be phased in slowly and wouldn’t be fully implemented until 2075.

Currently, most Americans can choose to start collecting benefits at full retirement age, which ranges from 65 to 67 depending on the year they were born, or to receive a reduced benefit as early as age 62. This is an important decision, so it’s a good idea to consider all the factors involved.
 
It’s About Monthly Income
If you claim benefits at age 62, the amount you receive each month would be about 70% of your full retirement benefit. Each month you wait to claim benefits after age 62, your monthly benefit increases slightly, so that at full retirement age you would be entitled to 100% of your full retirement benefit. For each month you wait to claim Social Security afterfull retirement age, your monthly benefit will continue to increase until you reach age 70, when you could be entitled to about 132% of your full benefit.
 
If you live an average life expectancy, you will collect the same amount in lifetime benefits regardless of
