Retirement income planning is a step in the financial planning process that is often overlooked. Many individuals only focus on the wealth accumulation phase, but retirement income planning is essential in order to ensure that you do not outlive your income. There are many variables to consider when planning for retirement. Inflation, rising health care costs and long-term care are just a few examples of the things that can affect your retirement income.
How do we do this?
The Retirement Plan Team can help you create a retirement income plan with the goal of providing a sustainable, predictable, tax-efficient stream of income based on your age, values and vision of retirement. For this reason, we created our retirement planning solution around managing these risks and helping simplify the complexity of retirement income planning. The goals you can achieve working with us include:
- Transitioning your investment portfolio from an accumulation allocation to one that fits your retirement income plan.
- Determining the withdrawal percentage of savings each year that will be sustainable throughout your retirement.
- Formulating a strategic income plan for when you take income from your different accounts such as 401k’s, traditional and ROTH IRA’s, pensions, annuities, taxable accounts and your Social Security benefits that minimizes the overall tax burden on those savings.
- Recommending risk management strategies that protect you against the key risks you will face during retirement.
