These days, most
people can't rely on their employer's "pension plan"
to provide for their retirement needs. Social Security will not allow
any of us to live in the style we've dreamed about. In fact, Social
Security will probably only account for 30-40% of your retirement income
needs. It will take "proper planning" and systematic investing
for most of us to retire comfortably. We're all living longer,
healthier lives and most of us have more hobbies and activities than
our parents did. This all leads to a need for more retirement income
than our parents required.
Some basic retirement
planning steps.
- Visualize your
retirement years. Where do you want to live? What would you like to
do?
- Write down
your goals from questions #1 and apply a monthly or yearly income
necessary for you to accomplish these goals.
- Tally your
current retirement savings plans (IRAs, Rollover IRAs, 401ks, pension
plans, etc.) and note your current monthly / yearly investments into
them. Then

Develop a strategy
for meeting your retirement goals.
$olution$
is equipped to help you design a retirement plan specific to your goals.
We'll take into consideration your desires, current savings, current
income, age, family status, and investment risk tolerances to develop
a plan you can "stick to". There's no real magic, just
a plan and discipline.
We may need to
have you start out with small contributions and increase them over time.
We may be able to help re-position your current retirement assets to
enhance their return. We can offer specific plans to help you maximize
your "tax-deferred" retirement savings in diversified investment
accounts. We can even show you how to never pay taxes on portions
of your retirement savings.
Everyone's
situation is different. An IRA may be a great idea for one person while
a ROTH IRA is better suited for another. A 401k plan may be better than
a SIMPLE Plan for certain people and businesses. There are even people
who are maximizing their retirement plan at work and still need additional
ideas for retirement savings in order to meet their goals. No matter
what the case, we'll help you understand the alternatives so you
can make a good decision. Doing nothing is easy (so is living in
a travel trailer in Blythe). Learning how and where to save for
retirement is more difficult, but worth the effort.
$olution$
can help. We'll recommend tested, diversified investment plans.
We'll help you understand the advantages of both "qualified"
and "non-qualified" investment products. We'll explain
mutual funds
versus annuities
versus bank savings plans
versus individual stocks & bonds
and how they all fit in IRAs,
401ks, and SIMPLE Plans. We'll project inflation and investment
return into your plan to give you the best chances of success. We'll
show you the tax advantages of a qualified retirement plan over a "normal"
investment plan.
Most people don't
plan to fail, they simply fail to plan
because they're
not sure how to plan. If you want to know more, visit our Request
Information screen. We'll be happy to help.
