Questions About Retirement Income?

Here’s What You Should Know

  • How can I make sure I don’t outlive my savings?

    A well-crafted retirement income plan considers how much you’ve saved, how long you might need it to last, and what risks could throw you off track. We’ll show you how to turn your savings into predictable income while protecting your principal as much as possible. Our goal is to help you cover your essential expenses with confidence and leave room for the extras that make retirement enjoyable.

  • What role do annuities play in retirement income?

    Annuities can act like a personal pension, providing guaranteed payments for as long as you live. While they aren’t right for everyone, they can be a powerful way to create stability in retirement. We’ll explain how different types of annuities work and help you decide if they fit into your overall plan.

  • When should I start taking Social Security?

    Your Social Security benefits depend on when you start claiming them, and the right timing can make a big difference. We’ll help you weigh the trade-offs of claiming early, waiting until full retirement age, or even delaying benefits to maximize your monthly payments.

  • How do I handle required minimum distributions (RMDs)?

    RMDs can create unexpected tax obligations if not planned for properly. We’ll help you create a strategy for taking distributions from your retirement accounts in a way that meets IRS requirements and minimizes your tax burden.

  • Can you adjust my plan as my needs change?

    Yes, retirement planning isn’t a “set it and forget it” process. We’ll meet with you regularly to review your strategy and make adjustments as your life or the market changes, ensuring your plan stays aligned with your goals.
