Address Retirement Risks
Part of retirement planning means preparing for events that are
out of your control. No matter how much you save for retirement
or how much planning you do, there are always events that are
unforeseen. While these events can’t be predicted, some can be
anticipated and prepared for.
Running Out of Money
The overwhelming majority of planning for retirement is
designed to address one almost unimaginable risk: running out
of money. For a married couple, there are usually three major
goals with regard to retirement income:
1. Maintaining their standard of living in retirement.
2. Making their income last for the rest of their lives.
3. Taking care of each other financially when one of them
passes away.
