Retirement Focused Financial Plan and Lifestyle Transition Planning
Download Retirement/Lifestyle Transition Services PDFThis plan is most appropriate for pre-retirees, people seeking a ‘phased-in’ retirement that may include consulting, freelancing, non-profit or part time work and those in the first 10 to 15 years of retirement. Clients are frequently focused on what level of spending can be maintained to support a lifestyle that may include a second home, travel, sport and hobbies while balancing the desire to help children and/or parents, the ability to cover potential medical costs including care at home or the desire to leave an inheritance.
Key areas we will cover:
- Review your financial objectives
- Income planning, how to replace your paycheck, social security strategies.
- Spending plan for different lifestyle or retirement phases.
- An overall review of your tax return and available deductions
- Tax strategies to potentially reduce taxes
- Health care expenses
- Residence and rental real estate issues
- Plus, your wish list … travel, family needs, reduced work schedule, leisure time, community activities, second acts.
Who can benefit? Pre-retirees, retirees, full-time to part-time or self-employed transitions, phased-in retirements and anyone pursuing a second act or encore career can benefit.
