California is a state where the cost of living is significantly higher than the rest of the USA, going nearly 52 points higher than the national average. This cost can depend on where you live. If you live in rural California, it will cost less than the heart of LA. However, you can expect to pay a little more in most areas. The least high cost is groceries, but you will be paying over 10$ more than the national average. Retiring to California can be a fantastic journey, but be sure you have enough money to partake in it.

The federal government has stopped mailing most paper checks, and Social Security wants every beneficiary on direct deposit or a Direct Express card by the end of 2026. Fewer than 1 percent of recipients still get a check in the mail. Here is who is affected, how to switch, and the narrow exceptions that let a few people keep paper.

The repeal of WEP and GPO restored Social Security for more than 3 million public-sector retirees, and the agency has paid about $17 billion in back benefits. But those lump sums are taxable, a surprise bill hit this filing season, and a proposal in Congress would change it. Here is where things stand.
