20 Retirement Planning Mistakes That Waste Your Money

Retiring Too Early

Retiring early has two main disadvantages. First, the earlier you retire, the less time you have to save for retirement.

For example, if your full retirement age is 67 and you start your retirement benefits at 62, prepare for your monthly benefit amount to be reduced by about 30 percent.
