Will and Estate Planning

Retirement Planning

Retirement is a goal that nearly everyone strives for. However, many have not fully thought through what their retirement will actually look like from a financial perspective. We can help with this.

Estimating what you will need during retirement will involve a blend of personal reflection and number-crunching. If you’re between five to ten years away from retirement, now is the time to sit down with us and review your planning. We can help you estimate your spending and withdrawal patterns over the span of your retirement as well as facilitate your switch from asset accumulation to asset utilization, if applicable. It’s important to look at constructing a flexible, tax-efficient cash flow to pay your fixed expenses, while having a clear sense of your discretionary spending.
