Retirement Planning Never Stops

November 7, 2020 by Brandon McGee

When you’re young, you begin to realize that the money moves you make will one day impact you in retirement. And once you reach retirement age, you’ll realize the importance of adjusting your approach to ensure that you have enough money to last the rest of your life.

In other words, retirement planning never stops. Even after you hang up your work boots, you still need to plan for the future.

Here are five important steps to take as you plan for your retirement, regardless of your age or financial circumstances:

  • Make a list of all your retirement assets: This takes on many forms, including but not limited to retirement accounts, pensions, personal assets, life insurance, and real estate.
  • Organize all applicable paperwork: Think about things such as your estate plan, life insurance policies, deeds, and beneficiary designations.
  • Set a goal: Only you know how much money you’ll need to comfortably retire. Set a goal and then decide how much money you have to save every month/year to get there. The sooner you set a goal, the sooner you can get on the right track.
  • Get guidance: From a tax professional to an estate planning attorney, there are many people who can assist you with retirement planning and related details.
  • Check-in regularly: Your financial situation and retirement goals may change as you age. Since this is likely to happen, it’s critical that you check in regularly to ensure that you’re still on the right track to reaching your goals. Never be afraid to make changes.

Once you come to grips with the fact that retirement planning never stops, you’ll feel better about every decision you make.

If you have any questions about retirement planning, estate planning, or related subject matter, contact us to schedule a consultation with one of our experienced and knowledgeable attorneys.

Client Review

Brandon McGee is knowledgeable, experienced and professional regarding Estate Planning. The entire process of multiple meetings to establish our input, draft and sign documents and fund the Trust were well organized and clearly explained. At completion, we were presented with a very well organized binder with the documents (both paper and electronic) and lists for future action.  In short, we find Brandon McGee and his staff to be competent, professional and friendly. ~ Brian C.
