Social Security's Former Chief Actuary on the Program's Present & Future

About this episode
Stephen Goss was Social Security's Chief Actuary for nearly a quarter of a century, capping off a long career of public service at the Social Security Administration. Today, as a private citizen, he talks to us about Social Security's financial picture… about the factors behind the projected shortfall in the program's trust fund reserves... and about potential ways to strengthen Social Security for the future. This is a rare interview with Stephen since he retired in 2025 and shouldn't be missed!
