Our Services
Income Planning
Creating a GUARANTEED income, like a personal pension, that will last the rest of your life can help you THRIVE throughout your retirement. It will also help you make better decisions when it comes to managing risk and opportunity with your investable assets once you know your basic lifestyle and retirement needs will always be met.
Annuities
A preferred choice for boomers and retirees that offers innovative strategies for growth and security. Annuities are the foundation for income planning and asset preservation. Many financial advisors have turned to annuities instead of bonds as a key component to creating an income plan to meet the objectives of their clients.
Life Insurance
Today’s financial professionals have designated life insurance as an asset class all to itself. While it has been mostly used is a death benefit, today, it’s also used to create a tax-free income which has become the preferred type of income for retirement.
Ask us how we can create a tax-free income for your retirement.
Today’s life insurance offers a provision for long term health care benefits to pay for the high cost of care while allowing a benefit to be passed on to a spouse or heirs.
Estate Considerations
Everyone has an estate. Whatever you have earned or accumulated has been done so in large part due to the choices, decisions and sacrifices you’ve made throughout your life’s journey. Establishing a Will or Trust along with other legal documents can provide protection and control while you’re living and direct your assets after life for the benefit of your spouse, family, charitable organizations or other heirs. Now may be the time to ask; “What happens to your estate when you’re gone?”
Investments
As you approach and subsequently travel through retirement, you will likely adjust your investment strategies. You may choose not to chase rate of return and the market risk associated with doing so and prefer a more tactical position in order to mitigate risk along the way taking a more conservative view. When your retired, the clock may not be on your side because when a loss occurs the recovery time can be as much as 20% of your life expectancy and the risk may not be justified.
Health Insurance In Retirement
There’s a lot of confusion about health care once you retire. Medicare is what most people will use at age 65. However, Medicare does not cover all your expenses. It offers an 80/20 plan but the coinsurance or 20% is un-capped. This is why secondary insurance or a supplement may also be needed.
