We walk your through the retirement planning process step-by-step

The initial visit is really about getting to know you. What does your ideal retirement look like? What do you value most? Do you want to travel, or do you prefer to stay home and work in your garden? Everyone’s ideal retirement is different, and our goal is to help you clarify yours.

During this visit, you will also learn about our process and the experience you can expect to have if you choose to partner with our retirement plan consultants.

As part of the initial meeting, we will help you clarify your goals. Retirement planning goes further than where to invest money for retirement. We will discuss your short-term needs and long-term wants as we develop your goals that will guide the planning process.

Once we have clarified your goals, we begin the planning process by gathering relevant documents and information. We will provide you with a link to our Financial Planning questionnaire software so you can easily input the financial information we need to begin drafting your plan.

We will draft your Financial/Retirement plan, which will act as your roadmap to reaching your goals. We consider your time horizon, future income needs, and other information unique to you. There’s no single recipe for retirement success or an overall best investment for retirees. We create a holistic and tailored retirement planning experience customized for your unique situation.

The way your retirement investment options are managed is a vital component to reaching your financial goals. We will go over the different investment management strategies and styles to better align your investments with your overall financial plan during this process.

Once we have finalized the Financial/Retirement and Investment Plan, we will work towards implementation. Our retirement planning services guarantee you’re aware of each step of the plan and approve of it before implementation.

We understand that the future is uncertain, and because neither of us has a crystal ball, your financial plan is designed to be fluid. As your life circumstances change, we need to adapt and change your plan as well. We adjust and optimize where to invest your money for retirement.

Each individual has a unique set of goals and desires for retirement. Our financial advisors work with you to design your personalized retirement plan. Our retirement planning services are designed to adapt as your circumstances change.

 

Experience You Can Trust

You will work with a CFP (Certified Financial Planner) throughout the retirement planning process. We will help you clarify your goals and vision for retirement in order to properly design the retirement plan for your individual circumstances.

CLEARLY DIFFERENT INVESTMENT MANAGEMENT

Building Wealth While You Are Still Working and Preserving Wealth During Retirement Require Two Distinct Investment Approaches

While you are still receiving a paycheck, your retirement accounts enjoy the benefits of growth and steady contributions, also known as Dollar-Cost Averaging. While you are in the accumulation phase of your life, you continuously buy shares throughout the market’s ups and downs. When you retire, you are no longer buying shares; you are selling shares to support your income and lifestyle.

We believe, as you get closer to retirement, your investment philosophy must adapt, and move from a more passive approach to an active approach, focused on wealth preservation and risk management. While a buy and hold approach may have served you well during your accumulation phase, it may not be the best option when you retire and are relying on your investments to supplement your income. A substantial loss to your portfolio in the first few years could have severe consequence on your retirement and standard of living.

The Sequence of Returns during you working years or before you take income has little impact on the overall returns of your portfolio. The chart to the left shows an example of the average return on two portfolios. The left column shows “Mr. Green’s portfolio and the right column shows “Mr. Red’s portfolio. Each start with $1 million in investments, but they experience their annual returns in an inverse order. Mr. Green has high positive returns early on, while Mr. Red experience Low negative returns at the start. Both end with the same dollar amount.

Now let’s examine how the Sequence of Returns impact a portfolio when taking distributions. Mr. Green and Mr. Red each start with a $1 million portfolio, but this time they take an annual distribution of $50,000. Mr. Green begins taking distributions during an up market, while Mr. Red starts taking income during a down market. The chart to the right shows the result. The Sequence of Returns can significantly impact your investment portfolio when taking distributions. It is for this reason we believe it is important to manage risk and take a more active approach to investment management especially heading into retirement.

We Believe It Is More Important To Minimize Portfolio Losses Than To Maximize Gains

The graph on the left shows the impact that large losses have on a portfolio and the required return needed to breakeven. If your investments lose 30%, it takes a 43% gain to breakeven. If you lose 50%, it takes a 100% gain to breakeven. We call this the Fundamental Law of Percentages.
