Retirement Planning
People often think of retirement in abstract terms – far away, undefined, difficult to envision. As a result, more people are unprepared to retire than ever before – according to the Insured Retirement Institute’s 2019 study, 45 percent of baby boomers haven’t put a single penny toward their own retirement.
Prepare for Tomorrow, Make the Most of Today
Journalists and pundits seem to come out with a new study or soundbite every week declaring our country is in a “retirement crisis.”
But is there actually a nationwide “retirement crisis?” Whether or not there is a cumulative crisis among individuals preparing to eventually retire isn’t the point. The point is that your retirement is in your hands. While you may feel as though there is a crisis looming if you’re unprepared to retire, the truth is that it’s not too late to start those preparations through intentional planning.
That’s what we’re here for – to help you avoid your own personal retirement crisis by putting your financial plan into concrete terms using our five-step process. Want to find out how prepared you are for retirement right now?
