Will your money last?
In this day and age, retirees have several factors that they need to consider before retiring to make sure they enjoy a financial comfortable retirement. When thinking about retirement, you should address specific risks including:
· Potential for outliving assets
· Inflation
· Rising cost of healthcare
· Declining social security benefit
The goal of retirement income planning is to create a sustainable, predictable stream of income that also has the potential to increase over time. How should you do this? Experts suggest the following:
· Review your retirement portfolio to determine whether your asset allocation (investment mix) is appropriate for your specific goals. Make adjustments if necessary.
· Maximize contributions to retirement accounts, such as a 401(k) plan and/or an IRA.
· If you’re facing a retirement savings shortfall, consider possible fall-back strategies, such as delaying retirement and/or withdrawing less money from your account(s) each year during retirement.
· Evaluate the potential role that annuities may play in your financial plans for retirement.
