Social Security is a constant in an ever-changing financial world

AARP New Hampshire State Director Todd Fahey offers this statement about Brexit and financial security:

“The coming weeks will bring many questions about how this will impact the broader global economy – and the US economy in particular – especially those invested in the markets with 401ks and other retirement plans.

“Market volatility prompted by events like this should remind us of the intense need for our leaders to take substantive action to strengthen Social Security.  In the end, Social Security has been the one guaranteed source of retirement income for most Americans, and it remains a bedrock of retirement security for Granite Staters at every income level.

“Market turmoil from events like Brexit further demonstrates the need to preserve the program’s status as an unfailing constant for future generations of American retirees.  Social Security is a reliable constant in an ever-changing financial world.”
