Sometimes, when I write a column about a certain topic, that column seems to generate more questions than it answers. And that certainly was the case with a column I wrote about widows benefits just before the holidays. Ever since, my inbox has been crammed with emails from widows or about widows. And I even got some questions about benefits for widowers.
Q: You wrote an interesting column about widows benefits. But you didn’t say anything about widowers. So, what about us guys? Can we get anything from Social Security if our wife dies first?
