During your working and saving years, most people are ok with some market risk. Generally, this is because you may feel that you have time for your account to recover if a market dip occurs. However, as you get closer to retirement, you may wish to protect your money. Usually, this means your plan for income may change as well. In fact, many people prioritize having a steady income over their rate of return in this phase of life

Fortunately, there are possibilities that let you keep money safe but also allow for potential gains. Also, income planning should also include where you want your money to go when you are no longer here. Of course, there may be tax consequences or other considerations if you decide to leave your money to a loved one. Work with our team to learn about choices for this aspect of income planning as well.

The Right Plan Is
One That Works For You

When Lisa began her career in finance and insurance services, her drive was to help people. She saw how some companies and advisors were treating their clients and she knew they deserved better. That’s why we are so dedicated to treating each and every client with dignity and respect. The most important part of income planning is being clear about what you want and need. At Marathon Group Financial, we make sure you build a foundation of protection in retirement first. After all, all clients deserve peace of mind in retirement. Once retirement nears, it is time to put some of your assets in a place where the stock market cannot drop its value. For instance, if you have money in a fixed index annuity (FIA) or in a max cash value index universal life insurance (IUL) policy, your principal is secure. Instead of having a link to the stock market, your money in an FIA or IUL links to an index. If your index rises, so, too, might your money. But, if the index drops, you don’t lose money. When it comes to retirement income strategies, get with a professional who can show you the options available for you.

Educate Yourself

First and foremost, retirees should seek education on the topic of retirement. Indeed, people who take time and gain understanding about their options are the ones who feel most confident. To help you gain knowledge, we offer various dinner seminars (or, online gift card dinner events) to those nearing or in retirement. During these sessions, we educate you on the market, and how it can impact how much money you have. Also, we review choices for keeping your savings protected, yet allowing for a reasonable rate of return over time on your account. Finally, we give you the chance to ask questions, bring up concerns, and learn from other retirees who attend the events as well. If you prefer, we also offer one-on-one meetings, either virtually or in person.
