PLAN A COMFORTABLE RETIREMENT

Are Your Retirement Savings Safe?

If you have $2.5 million saved, you’re well ahead of most Americans.

But how long that money lasts may depend less on the balance itself and more on the decisions you make with it.

Wondering how much you can actually spend each year in retirement?

A financial advisor may be able to size and structure your retirement budget based on your income sources, spending needs, tax situation, and goals so you know what’s realistic for you.

SmartAsset’s free quiz can help you find and compare vetted financial advisors who serve your area, each legally bound to work in your best interest.

It’s never too late to plan to work toward a comfortable retirement.


THE NEW 65: COACHING

This is the “later” you promised yourself. For years you told yourself there would be time later. Later you’d slow down and finally do the thing you set aside. Well, this is later.

It arrived. The New 65 is how you meet it with a plan, instead of letting it drift past. And only the first four meet it at $1,800. After them, the price is $2,500 and it stays there.

You waited a long time for “later.” Don’t let the founding price be the thing you miss.
