Why taking Social Security at 62 might make sense for you. Even if the ‘basic math’ says otherwise

美国社会保障福利领取策略分析 - 个人可开始领取社会保障福利的年龄为62岁,完全退休年龄在66至67岁之间,取决于出生年份,最晚可延迟至70岁开始领取 [5] - 延迟领取福利能增加月度支付额,超过完全退休年龄后,每延迟一年福利可增加高达8% [4] - 若在开始领取福利前去世,则无法从缴纳数十年的系统中获得任何回报 [2] 延迟领取福利的潜在风险与“盈亏平衡年龄” - 延迟领取福利的基本计算常忽略长寿风险,若个人寿命未达预期,其终身领取总额可能更低 [3] - 采用“盈亏平衡年龄”分析来评估延迟领取的利弊,例如,完全退休年龄为67岁、月福利2000美元的人,需活过78岁8个月才能比62岁开始领取更划算;若延迟至70岁,盈亏平衡年龄升至约80岁5个月 [6] - 但该分析通常未考虑货币时间价值或更早领取福利并进行投资的机会成本 [7] 机会成本对退休规划的重大影响 - 若提前退休但延迟申领福利,可能需要动用储蓄或退休账户来支付生活开支,从而牺牲了这些资金本可获得的潜在投资回报,这被称为机会成本 [8][9] - 将机会成本纳入盈亏平衡分析后,延迟领取福利变得有利的年龄会显著推后,例如,假设年投资回报率为5%,完全退休年龄67岁、月福利2000美元的人需活到约88岁8个月才能达到盈亏平衡点 [10] - 若预期年回报率为8%,盈亏平衡点可能超出典型寿命范围,在此情况下,尽早领取福利同时保持退休储蓄投资可能带来更好的财务结果 [11] 应对策略与专业建议 - 为降低延迟领取福利时的机会成本,需储备充足的应急资金,以避免过早动用投资,并需确保该资金能抵御通胀 [12] - 建议与合格的财务顾问合作,以综合考虑通胀、遗产规划、医疗成本和年度支出需求等关键变量 [14] - 过度简化退休策略可能代价高昂,更全面、个性化的方法有助于做出更明智的决策并改善长期财务状况 [16]

退休储蓄目标 - 一项2025年的研究发现,美国普通工人的退休储蓄目标为160万美元,预计需覆盖22年的退休生活 [1] 关键退休决策 - 将529计划资金转入罗斯IRA 若账户已开设15年或以上,最多可将35,000美元从529计划转入罗斯IRA 考虑此操作的合适年龄取决于父母开户时间,但建议在21岁以上后考虑 此外,可提取不超过所获免税奖学金金额的529计划资金而免于罚金,但收益部分需缴纳所得税 [3] - 进行追加缴款 年满50岁后,有资格向401(k)、IRA等合格退休账户缴纳更多资金 这对于储蓄进度落后或当前薪资较高能承担更多供款的人尤为有益 [4] - 2026年IRA的追加缴款额为1,100美元,使基本限额提高至7,500美元 2026年401(k)的基本限额为24,500美元,年龄在60至63岁之间可额外追加11,250美元,其他50岁及以上年龄可额外追加8,000美元 [5] - 进行免罚金提取 从税收优惠退休账户提取资金免收10%提前提取罚金的最低年龄为59.5岁 但提取的资金可能仍需缴纳常规所得税,例如从传统401(k)或IRA中提取 [6] - 国税局对特定情况豁免10%的税收罚金,具体条件因账户类型而异 例如,可为符合条件的大学教育费用从IRA中取款,若完全且永久残疾则可从401(k)或IRA中取款 [7] - 申领社会保障金 最早可在62岁申领社会保障金,但等到70岁申领可获得最高金额 可根据个人收入历史,通过计算器估算不同年龄申领可获得的金额 [8]
