Questions We Should All Be Asking Ourselves

How long will I live?

Will I need long term care?

How much income can I safely count on from my investments?

Will my income keep up with inflation?

How much of my income will I be able to keep?

Do I have the proper Medicare Health insurance?

The unknowns associated with these five questions underscore the greatest risks to your finances in retirement. These five factors represent your retirement LIMITs.

Estate Planning Wisconsin and Minnesota

Know Your Retirement Limits

The risk of living a long life. The longer you live, the greater the risk of exhausting your assets.

The unfortunate byproduct of longer life expectancies is greater need for long term care services. Nearly 70% of seniors will require some form of extended care.

Every investment carries risk. How much risk are you taking? How much should you take?

Beware the dangers of money illusion. Inflation has been historically low for the last few decades. However, consumer prices have more than doubled over the last 30 years.

It’s not how much income you generate, it’s how much you keep. With a $20 trillion dollar deficit, even more in underfunded entitlements and an aging population, changes in tax policy could have devastating effects on future retirees.

Adequately addressing these risks is the single most important step in the planning process. Using cutting edge financial software, we run every plan we create through thousands of scenarios to make sure you are prepared for retirement’s LIMITs.

If you have a retirement plan that ignores any of these factors, ask us about our Retirement Stress Test Evaluation to see how your portfolio will fare when faced with these factors.
