More and more women are taking charge of their retirement planning, but some need help getting started. What does retirement mean to you? Do you dream of traveling, pursuing a hobby, volunteering, or starting a second career? Whatever your goal, you’ll need a retirement income plan that’s designed to support the retirement lifestyle that you envision, and help minimize the risk that you’ll outlive your savings.
START SAVING NOW
Save as much as you can, as early as you can. The earlier you start, the more compounding can help you.
WHERE TO SAVE MONEY?
• Employer retirement plan
• Traditional or Roth IRA (either from your own income or Spousal)
• Personal/joint account
WHAT WILL RETIREMENT LOOK LIKE?
• How much money will I need in retirement? Start with your current take home pay, but things may change.
• How much you expect to receive from Social Security, pensions and other income.
• Retirement savings
• Long Term Care
WHY NOT PLAN NOW?
• I don’t have time • I’ll save later when my kids are out of college, my house is paid off
• I don’t know where to start
