But once I’m confident my plane is airworthy, I give myself a final once-over as well. Like many pilots I know, I take a moment to myself and check to make sure I’M SAFE. And I think this personal preflight checklist might give retirees a few things to think about too as they prepare to journey into an exciting new phase of their lives.
On today’s show, we discuss the essential steps everyone needs to take to create an estate plan, and how your estate fits in with your big picture financial planning as well.
In order to avoid this downside of retirement, my Keen Wealth team works to determine not only our clients’ financial needs, but we also work to understand their psychological and emotional needs. We like to really get to know our clients so that we can plan together for a meaningful retirement in which financial security and an active, engaged, fulfilling lifestyle go hand-in-hand.
My Keen Wealth team can help you make well-informed decisions for your retirement. We can help you figure out how much to save and invest. We can help you figure out an annual withdrawal rate that will keep you happy and active without breaking the bank. We can put you in touch with the right tax and health care pros. We can help get your estate in order. Heck, we’ll even sit down with your children and explain to them the importance of starting their own financial plans as early as possible.
We always stress to our clients at Keen Wealth that once you stop working, it’s time to start learning the “ART” of retirement: Activity, Relationships, and Time. You have to experiment, try new things, make new connections. Let’s talk about how mastering your retirement ART will help you create a new daily routine focused on the people and passions that will make your golden years fulfilling.
Many new retirees are surprised to find that Medicare is not a simple, free, one-size-fits-all health care solution. There are crucial decisions that both you and your spouse will have to make to secure the coverage that makes the most sense during your golden years.
