Social Security Payments May Not Be Enough for Retirees – Check What Other Benefits Are Available!

Social Security payments average $1,929/month in 2025, but retirees often need more to cover $4,500+ in living costs. Supplemental programs like SSI, Medicaid, SNAP, and Extra Help can make a huge difference. Alternative income sources, including retirement accounts, part-time jobs, and reverse mortgages, help fill the gap. Start with a benefit screening, apply online, and review your situation yearly to build a stronger, more comfortable retirement plan.
