Social Security at 62 vs 70: The Math Everyone Gets Wrong

Video

Video Description

Social Security break-even age — it sounds simple, but most people calculate it wrong. In this episode, Erik Soderborg sits down with Zacc Call, president of Capita Financial Network, for Part 3 of our 4-part Social Security series. We walk through how to actually calculate your Social Security break-even age and break down the 3 most common mistakes that lead to an inaccurate number — and potentially a bad filing decision.

We cover why ignoring the Cost of Living Adjustment (COLA) skews your break-even, why Social Security filing needs to be a team decision with your spouse, and why you can't ignore the investment growth you'd get by leaving your portfolio untouched while delaying benefits.

Whether you're 62 and deciding when to file or still a few years out, this episode gives you the framework to make a smarter, more informed decision.

What Every 40–60 Year Old Gets Wrong About Retirement

Video

Video Description

Most people in their 40s and 50s believe retirement is about hitting a magic savings number or maxing out a 401(k). That belief is quietly sabotaging their future.

In this video, someone who has already retired shares the unfiltered truths about what actually determines retirement success—and where most people go wrong. This isn’t financial hype or generic advice. It’s a grounded look at savings rates, investment strategy, Social Security timing, income leverage, healthcare risk, and housing decisions that can permanently change your outcome.

You’ll learn:

Why your savings rate matters more than your total balance

How to invest as retirement approaches without sacrificing growth

Why side hustles usually fail—and what works instead

The Social Security decision that costs retirees hundreds of thousands

The two hidden risks that destroy otherwise solid plans

This video is for potential retirees aged 40–60 who want clarity, not reassurance—and who are willing to confront the tradeoffs that actually shape retirement.

If you’re serious about making better decisions while time is still on your side, this conversation is for you.
