Unclaimed Property – The Simply Retirement Podcast

10 Retirement Websites Every Woman Should Bookmark (Ep. 128)

By The Simply Retirement Podcast | October 28, 2026

Social Security, Medicare, old retirement accounts, long-term care, and even your credit report can all raise questions as retirement gets closer. Knowing where to find reliable information can make those decisions feel much more manageable.

In this episode, I share 10 websites I believe every woman should bookmark for retirement planning. I explain where to review Social Security records, understand Medicare, search for forgotten retirement accounts and unclaimed property, research long-term care and caregiving resources, check a financial professional’s background, and review your credit reports. My goal is to help you gather useful information, spot anything that may need attention, and ask better questions before making important retirement decisions.

Key points:

How to review your Social Security earnings record, benefit estimates, and other important account information
Where to learn about Medicare coverage, enrollment, costs, and free local health insurance counseling resources
How to search for forgotten 401(k)s, pensions, bank accounts, checks, insurance proceeds, and other property
Where to find caregiving and long-term care resources and understand services that may be available locally
How to check financial professionals and credit reports for disclosures, errors, unfamiliar accounts, or concerns
And more!
