Myth No.5 - The tax on Social Security benefits isn't enough to worry about. Modestly affluent seniors now pay tax on up to 85% of benefits. For example, an affluent senior has 85% of a $20,000 annual benefit taxed at a 25% marginal federal tax rate. The tax on benefits is $4,250 ($20,000 X .85 X .25).
Your Social Security can be worth more in golden years' income than your 401(k) or individual retirement account. The trick: Know at what age to best file for benefits. Consider a married couple who both begin Social Security with a first-year combined benefit of just $23,304, based on the Social Security program fact sheet. As of Dec. 31, 2013, the average retired benefits recipient gets $1,294 a month and a spouse $648 a month. A retirement plan needs a value today of $543,147 to provide the same income as Social Security for the next 20 years.
