RSSA® Client Testimonials

“Melissa Warren was EXCEPTIONAL at hearing my issue and immediately being able to direct me to the answer. Awesome and best use of 10 minutes EVER! Couldn’t find the definitive answer ANYWHERE else.”

“Initially I wasn’t sure what to expect. I was a bit hesitant about sending $600 to someone I had never even met except over the phone and a web site, but it turned out to be money well spent and I’m super happy. Along with a 17-page analysis, Tom spent 35 minutes with me on the telephone. He answered all of my questions clearly, concisely, and in language I could understand, and he kindly offered to remain available in the future if other questions pop up. It was money well spent and gives me peace of mind that I can retire knowing what my social security income and my wife’s survivor benefits will be.”

“The written analysis from RSSA was extremely clear and comprehensive, and the follow-up call with our RSSA advisor made it easy to make the important decisions about our financial security going forward. I am so glad I did this — now I can move ahead with confidence and clarity that I am doing the best thing for my future.”

“Spoke with Norm Haug. He was very helpful and took his time to answer my questions. He discussed options that I could do and what to be careful of. Norm emailed me a review of our conversation with info. If I have more questions I would discuss with Norm again.”

“Well worth every penny. Like almost everyone, my wife and I found social security baffling and Thomas walked us through every aspect of it and presented options available to us. The information was clear and comprehensive and when we have questions in the future, Thomas will be there to answer them. If you are planning for you retirement, this service is incredibly useful.”

“I had done lots of Social Security research prior to working with Thomas at RSSA but still had questions. He provided me with an excellent personalized Social Security Analysis. Thomas reviewed the analysis with me and clarified and answered all the questions I had. The whole process went extremely smoothly, was easy, and so worth the money. RSSA allowed me to make an informed decision about the best time to apply for Social Security. It was a pleasure to work with RSSA and Thomas and I would highly recommend them to anyone who needs information regarding Social Security.”

“I can’t say enough about the Team here at RSSA. Tom and Norm were precise and extremely attentive. My son and I have benefited so much having them as our advisors. I’ve learned so much and was able to execute and finalize important decisions based on their precision.”

“We are having a great experience working with Thomas Drapala as our RSSA! He has been extremely kind, thoughtful, personable, and accommodating. He explains things well and has patiently addressed all of our questions and concerns. We can tell he and the company really care about the people they serve, and while they do sell their services we never felt like we were talking to a salesperson. We are normally do-it-yourselfers but we realized we were in over our head with this and we’re so glad we reached out for help. This decision will pay for itself many times over!”

“I have an MBA in Finance and a law degree but even then, I know it is foolish not to engage a specialist to at least verify your findings. Melissa did a marvelous job uncovering critical path options that I was totally unaware of, as well as the categorizations of spousal and child benefits, and the optimal times when claims should be initiated – all extremely essential if you have a special needs child.”

“Martha was referred to my spouse & I in anticipation of applying for SS benefits. She was oh so right on (!) with her advice. The SSA website had similar information, we learned after Martha helped us with options and strategies, but Martha presented the information in ways that were CLEAR and obvious so we could make choices for our future together. Thank you so much, Martha! We are in the flow of the best option for us at this time.”
