Retirees & Pre-Retirees — FAQ
Strategies to help you retire with clarity and confidence
When should I start planning retirement income?
About five to ten years before retirement is ideal. If you are already retired, we can still improve sequencing, taxes, and portfolio alignment.
How do you help me avoid running out of money?
We stress test long lifespans and difficult markets, set spending rules, keep cash buffers for near-term needs, and review regularly so adjustments happen early.
What is a safe withdrawal rate today?
Rules of thumb are only a start. Your rate reflects time horizon, spending flexibility, tax location of assets, and current inflation and return assumptions.
Do you help with Social Security and Medicare decisions?
Yes. We model Social Security timing and coordinate with healthcare resources so the cash flow plan remains realistic.
What happens if I retire during a market downturn?
We use cash and short-term reserves, flexible spending ranges, and disciplined rebalancing so you are not forced to sell at poor prices.
Can you advise on my current 401(k) at work?
Yes. We help with allocations and integrate the plan into your overall strategy even before you roll assets.
