What is Retirement Planning?

Retirement planning is a proactive process that goes beyond simply contributing to a 401(k) or IRA. It involves reviewing your current finances, estimating future income needs, evaluating risks, and implementing strategies that help you achieve a secure and flexible retirement.

Retirement Planning Considers:

-Lifestyle goals and desired retirement age

-Income sources, including Social Security, pensions, and business or rental income

-Tax implications of withdrawals and distributions

-Healthcare, insurance, and long-term care considerations

-Coordination with estate, business, and cash flow plans
