Delay Your State Pension? Weigh the Risks

About this episode

The episode discusses the risks and considerations of delaying your state pension for larger future payouts.

If you’re hitting 66 soon, big decision ahead: you can delay your state pension for bigger payouts later—but it’s risky. The government urges professional advice before you act, since delaying affects taxes, other benefits, and your finances. Nearly 42,000 people deferred last year, with one in four waiting five+ years. You must wait at least nine weeks to see any boost, and there’s no deadline to claim—so you must live long enough to benefit. Don’t wing it.
