Safely Increasing Your Retirement Income,
Requires These Two Things
Even if you think you have done everything right, you are probably still missing out on the full retirement income that could be enjoyed.
Sometimes the shortfall is hundreds of dollars a month- often it is more. And of course, the time to have more income is when you can enjoy it!
​
Most retirement income plans should come with a warning label- "May cause severe regret from underspending".
That chronic underspending is confirmed by research and academic studies time after time. Consistently "academic whitepapers" show the hesitancy retirees have in using their retirement principal to improve their lifestyle.
​
​So, is it possible to both increase your income and feel secure at the same time?
​
For over 40-years I have seen time after time that the answer to that question is a resounding "Yes".
​
Two things are needed to make a meaningful impact on your retirement income and for you to feel secure.
​
Safely increasing your retirement income first requires a "new set of eyes" on your situation. If you could see your opportunities for more income, you would have taken advantage of them by now. Same thing with any advisor you may be using.
​​
For over 40-years we have used a process to fully capture our client's situations when we meet, analyzing and evaluating their current plan so they understand what they have to work with.
​
And after we lay that foundation, we can play the "what if" game. It is looking at your nest egg from different perspectives that your opportunities will become clear.
​
More income will also require more variety of "strategies and techniques" and better use of all the many accounts you already have. ​
​
Just like there are new ways to treat illnesses, new ways to generate retirement income are regularly being introduced. Some of these new strategies and techniques could work for you- but only if you get the chance to hear about them. This is an exciting time to be retired!
Sometimes we find that retirees have good accounts already but are not using them correctly or most effectively. Having a fresh set of eyes taking a look can be invaluable.
Sometimes they are trying to use an account that is meant to be a "hammer" as a "screwdriver" and vice versa. A little change and things are working as intended.
Sometimes there are account features and benefits that are not being used or are forgotten. Time has a way of blurring the many details about the accounts you already own.
​
Managing your nest egg wisely is essential to maintaining financial stability and enjoying life to the fullest. Balancing the need for income with the desire to minimize risk requires careful planning and strategic decision-making.
​
We have the experience and the sophisticated tools to help you enjoy a better retirement. Can't promise that we can take you on as a client, but we'd be glad to take 15-minutes to answer your questions and ease some concern.
