Retirement Basics

Will You Have Enough to Retire Comfortably?

Most of us imagine retirement as a happy time, a reward for a lifetime of hard work, full of possibility and potential. We have good reason to see retirement in a positive light. Americans are living longer, healthier lives than ever before. In fact, for some of us, retirement will make up a full third of our lives. Of course, this means that our retirement assets will have to do more for us over a longer period of time. This makes planning for our retirement essential.

• How to put together a retirement road map
• Factors that influence when you should retire and how long your retirement could last
• How to “crunch the numbers” by estimating your retirement expenses and retirement income, while factoring in inflation and taxes
