Here's what you need to know.


When retiring a person can start earning their social security checks at age 62 or they can delay that to age 70 and earn a higher benefit. However, there are downsides to delaying the benefits.

Many tend to miss out on a early retirement to earn more social security benefit when it may not even be necessary. But another downside to this is that as the person gets older, the body is more prone to injury and the person could get injured while working their job. This can lead to unhappiness of working throughout the years which makes the retirement benefits not worth it.

Also, several business opportunities may be missed because of the late retirement. When going for a business opportunity, the time of retirement is essential or deals and projects could be missed and so will profits.
