Title: Are NC Teachers Ready for Retirement? Social Security & Rising Costs

As a North Carolina teacher, you've dedicated your life to educating others and shaping the future. But as you approach retirement, the question of financial stability looms larger, especially with the rising cost of living. One major concern for many teachers is whether Social Security alone will be enough to sustain them through their golden years.

The Problem: Social Security Isn’t Enough

While Social Security is an important component of your retirement income, it often falls short of meeting the increasing cost of living. With inflation driving up prices for necessities like housing, healthcare, and daily expenses, many retirees find that their Social Security benefits simply don’t keep pace.

For North Carolina teachers, the challenge is compounded by the fact that many of you rely heavily on Teachers' and State Employees' Retirement System (TSERS) pensions. While TSERS provides a stable income, it may still leave a gap when combined with Social Security. Many retirees quickly realize that their combined pension and Social Security benefits may not be enough to maintain the lifestyle they’ve worked so hard to achieve.
