Social Security Announces Lowest Cost of Living Adjustment in Four Years

Show Notes

GUEST: Jenn Jones, VP of Government Affairs, AARP
 
TOPIC: Each year the Social Security Administration announces the cost-of-living adjustment (COLA) for the upcoming year. Last week, leaders announced a 2.5% COLA for 2025. That is smaller than recent years – attributable to slowing inflation.
 
COLA increases are meant to offset rising prices including food, gas and living expenses. This year, retirees on a fixed income have struggled to keep up with inflation and the 2025 COLA is expected to provide some relief.
