Q: I am 62 and currently unemployed. I have $117,000 in a 401(k) and $7,000 in savings. If I do not find a job soon, should I file for Social Security?

A: At age 62 you would receive a reduced Social Security benefit but it can be helpful with cash flow. So, yes, you should consider filing for Social Security benefits.
