Can I Retire at 55? Tips for Early Retirement
Harvey 0 Comments Planning your Retirement Retire Wealthy & Wise Retiree Tips and Tricks
If you're thinking of retiring at 55, you want to be careful about where you get your advice and guidance, and that's because most retirement advice is geared toward those who retire quite a bit later, in fact… Most people retire at 62, but things will be different for you if you're going to retire at 55. So that's what we'll talk about for the next couple of minutes here, we'll go over where you can get the money from, and how that works with taxes as well as healthcare, then we'll look at some actual numbers and what it might look like for somebody who retires at age 55.
We might also want to get philosophical just briefly and ask the question, Why age 55? Yes, it's a nice round number. And there are some interesting tax strategies that are available around that age, but let's say you could retire a little bit earlier at 54, would you want to make that happen? Or if you worked a few more years… I know you'll think this is crazy, but if you worked a couple of more years and you could not impact your finances, but still take some of those dream vacations and spend time with loved ones, would that be worth it to maybe work until 59, for example? So we want to figure out exactly why you are pursuing a particular goal and then we can improve the chances of success for you, so let's start with health coverage, this is a tricky one because you're retiring quite a bit earlier than most people who might be near that Medicare age, so you have a number of different options to continue being covered, and it is a good idea to have real health insurance coverage just in case something happens.
So a couple of your choices include, number one, you can continue your current benefits from a job if you have them for up to 18 months in most cases, and that's under COBRA or your state's continuation program, that can get quite expensive because you're going to pay the full price, if you weren't already doing that, plus perhaps a teeny little bit extra for administration, but it is a way to continue with the program that you currently have, so that can be helpful if you are mid stream in certain treatments or if it's going to be hard to get certain benefits that you currently have on a different health care program, unfortunately, that's not usually a long term solution because we need to get you until age 65, which is when most people enroll in Medicare, and you should see your costs go down quite a bit at that point, maybe depending on what happens, so another solution that a lot of people look at is buying their own coverage, and that happens typically through a healthcare marketplace or an exchange, and that's where you just by coverage through an insurance company.
So you can go directly to the insurers, but it's often a good idea to go through… Start at healthcare.gov, and then go through the marketplace or the exchange, and that way you can shop some plans and potentially, depending on your income, you can potentially get some cost reductions that make it a lot more affordable, I'll talk more about that in a second, but another option is to switch to a spouse's plan, if you happen to be married and that person has coverage that's going to continue for whatever reason, that might also be a solution for you, when you leave your job, it could be a qualifying event that allows you to get on that person's program, but let's talk more about saving money on health care expenses before age 65, most people are going to buy a policy based on the factors that are most important to them, so that could be the premium or the out of pocket maximum, the deductible, the co pays, certain areas of coverage, all that kind of thing, you can select a plan that fits your needs.
Now, you might find that those tend to be quite expensive, and so if your income is below certain levels, you might be able to get effectively a reduction in the premium, it might be in the form of a tax credit or a subsidy, so here's just a preview of how things could look for you, let's say your income is, let's say 50,000 in retirement, and you need to look at exactly what income means, but there is no coverage available from a spouse, we've got one adult, and let's say you are… As our video suggest age 55 here, so you might get a benefit of roughly 422 a month, meaning you could spend that much less each month, and that's going to make it a lot easier to pay for coverage on these plans, if we switch your income down to 25,000 per year, the help is even bigger, so as you can see by varying or controlling your income, and this is something you might have some control over if you retire at 55, you can also control your healthcare costs, we'll talk about some conflicting goals here, where you might not want to absolutely minimize your income during these years, but this is important for you to know if you're going to be paying for your own coverage, and if you're experiencing sticker shock when you see the prices…
By the way, I'm going to have a link to this and a bunch of other resources in the description below, so you can play with this same calculator yourself. Now, once you're on Medicare, the cost should drop quite a bit, this is a calculator from Fidelity where we can say, let's say you are a female, and we're going to say you're eligible for Medicare at this point, so we'll bring you up to age 65.
It is going to be quite a bit higher cost, if you look at it before age 65, and that's because you are paying for those private policies from insurance companies, let's say you're going to live until age 93, and so you might expect to spend roughly 5800 6000 bucks per year, depending on your health and your location and other factors, it could be more or less, but this is an estimate of what somebody might spend, a single woman each year in retirement, of course, that number is going to increase each year with inflation and deteriorating health issues. But this is a ballpark estimate of what you might be spending in the future, now we get to the question of, do you have the financial resources to retire at 55? And that comes down to the income and the assets that you're going to draw from to provide the resources you need to buy the things you want and need, and one way to look at this is to say We want to avoid early withdrawal penalties because again, you are retiring at an age that's earlier than the typical retiree and most retirement accounts are designed for you to take withdrawals at 59.5 or later, to avoid those penalties, fortunately, you have a couple of options, so with individual and joint accounts, just taxable brokerage accounts, you can typically withdraw from those without any penalties, but you may have capital gains taxes when you sell something, those taxes may be at a lower rate than you would pay if you take big withdrawals from retirement accounts, but you just want to double and triple check that, but that can be a liquid source of funds.
You. Can also typically withdraw from Roth accounts pretty easily. So those regular contributions come out first, in other words, you can pull out your regular contributions at any time with no taxes and no penalties, what that means is that's the annual limit contributions you might have been making her by year, so the 7000 per year, for example. That money would be easily accessible, but if you have other money types like Roth conversions, for example, you're going to be very careful and check with your CPA and find out what all of that could look like.
There. Are other ways to get at funds that are inside of pre tax retirement accounts, and it might actually make sense to draw on those to some extent, we'll talk more about that in a minute, but these are some of the tricks you can use to avoid an early withdrawal penalty yet still draw on those assets before age 59.5. The first one is the so called rule of 55, so this applies if you work at a job with, let's say a 401K, and you stop working at that employer at age 55 or later, if you meet certain criteria, then you can withdraw those funds from the 401k so they go directly from the 401k to you. They don't go over to an IRA, you could withdraw those funds without an early withdrawal penalty. A complication here is that not every employer allows you to do that, so 401k plans can set a bunch of their own rules, and one of them might be that they don't let you just call them up and take money whenever you want, they might make you…
Withdraw the entire amount, so if that's the case, this isn't going to work, so be sure to triple check with your employer and the plan vendors and find out exactly how this would work logistically or if it will even work. Next, we have SEPP that stands for substantially equal periodic payments or rule 72. This is an opportunity to draw funds from, let's say your IRA or a certain IRA that you choose, but before age 59 and a half without getting early withdrawal penalties. Now, this is not my favorite choice. I don't necessarily recommend this very often at all, and the reason is because it's easy to slip up and end up paying tax penalties. The reason for that is in part that it's really rigid, so when you establish this, You calculate an amount that you have to take out every year, and it has to be the same amount every year, and you have to make sure you do that for the longer of when you turn age 59 1/2 or for five years.
And even that sounds kind of simple, but it's still easy to trip up, and you also have to avoid making any kind of changes to your accounts, so it's just really rigid and can be difficult to stick to you, so… Not my favorite choice, but it could be an option. Those of you who work for governmental bodies, maybe a city organization or something like that, you might have a 457b plan, and those plans do not have early withdrawal penalties before 59 and a half, so you could withdraw money from that and use some income, pre pay some taxes, and have some money to spend fairly easily, this by the way, is an argument for leaving money in your employer's 457 versus rolling it over to an IRA, because once it goes over to an IRA, you are subject to those 59 1/2 rules and a potential early withdrawal penalty. So that could end up leaving you with 72 to work with, for example, which again is not ideal.
So you might be asking, well shouldn't I just minimize taxes and hold off on paying taxes for as long as possible? And the answer is not necessarily. So it could make sense to go ahead and pre pay some taxes by getting strategic, the reason for that is that you will eventually have to pay taxes on your pre tax money and it might happen in a big lump, and that can bump you up into the highest tax brackets, so it could be better to smooth out the rate at which you draw from those accounts and hopefully keep yourself in lower tax bracket, at least relatively speaking. So when your RMDs or your required minimum distributions kick in after age 72 under current law, that could possibly bump you up into the highest tax brackets, maybe you want to smooth things out and take some income early. So let's look at the question of, Do you have enough with some specific numbers, and before we glance at those numbers, just want to mention that I am Justin Pritchard.
I help people plan for retirement and invest for the future. I've got some good resources, I think, in the description below, some of the things that we've been talking about here today, as well as some general retirement planning information. So if this is on your mind, I think a lot of that is going to be really helpful for you. Please take a look at that and let me know what you think of what you find.
It's also a good time for a friendly reminder, This is just a short video, I can't possibly cover everything. So please triple and quadruple check with some professionals like a CPA or a financial advisor before you make any decisions, so let's get back into these questions, Do you have enough? As we always need to mention, it depends on where you are and how much you spend and how things work for you. Are you lucky to retire into a good market, or are you unlucky and retiring into a bad market? All of these different aspects are going to affect your success, but let's jump over to my financial planning tool and take a look at an example. This is just a hypothetical example, it's the world's most over simplified example, so please keep that in mind, with a real person, we've got a lot more going on.
The world is a complicated place and things get messier, but we're keeping it very simple here, just to talk about an example of how things might look, so this person has one million in pre tax assets and 350,000 in a brokerage account, and if we just quickly glance at their dashboard here, pretty high probability of success, so let's make it a little bit more interesting and say… Maybe that IRA has, let's say, 700,000 in it. What is that going to do? And by the way, this is still a lot more than a lot of people have, but again, if you're going to be retiring at 55, you typically have quite low expenses and/or a lot of assets.
So let's keep in mind here that retirees don't necessarily spend at a flat inflation adjusted level, and I'll get into the assumptions here in a second, but let's just look at if this person spends at inflation minus 1% using the retirement spending "smile," that dramatically improves their chances, and I've got videos on why you might consider that as a potential reality, so you can look into that later at your leisure, but as far as the assumptions, we assume they spend about 50,000 a year, retire at age 55. The returns are 5.5% per year, and inflation is 3% per year.
Wouldn't that be refreshing if we got 3%… So we glance at their income here age 55, nothing, and then Social Security kicks in at 70. They're doing a Social Security bridge strategy. I've got videos on that as well, or at least one video, the full year kicks in here later, and then their Social Security adjust for inflation, looking at their taxes, we have zero taxes in these earlier years because they are just not pulling from those pre tax accounts. Maybe not getting much, if anything, in terms of capital gains, maybe their deduction is wiping that out, so we may have an opportunity here to actually do something and again, pre pay some taxes and pull some taxable income forward.
In fact, if we glance at their federal income tax bracket, you can see that it's fairly low from 55 on, maybe they want to pull some of this income forward so that later in life, they are drawing everything out of the pre tax accounts all at once. It just depends on what's important to you and what you want to try to do, and that brings us to some tips for doing calculations, whether you are doing this with somebody, a financial planner or on your own, you want to look at that gap between when you stop working and when your income benefits begin from, let's say, Social Security, there's also that gap between when you stop working and when Medicare starts, and that's another important thing to look at, but what are your strategies available there? Should you take some income, and exactly how much? That's going to be an area where you might have some control, so it's worth doing some good planning.
We also want to look closely at the inflation and investment returns, and what are the assumptions in any software that you're using, for example? These are really important inputs and they can dramatically change what happens… You saw what happened when we switched from a flat inflation adjusted increase each year to the retirement spending smile, just a subtle little adjustment has a big difference on how things unfold, and in that scenario, by the way, we would typically have healthcare increasing at a faster rate. But like I said, we use an over simplified example and didn't necessarily include that in this case, but you do want to click through or ask questions on what exactly are the assumptions and are you on board with those assumptions? You may also need to make some adjustments, and this is just the reality of retiring at an early age when you may have 30 plus years of retirement left, a lot can happen, and there really is a lot of benefit to making slight adjustments, especially during market crashes, for example, so.
If things are not necessarily going great, some little tweaks could potentially improve the chances of success substantially, that might mean something as simple as skipping an inflation adjustment for a year or two, or maybe dialing back some vacation spending. These are things you don't want to do, that's for sure, but with those little adjustments, you can potentially keep things on track, and that way you don't have to go back to work or make bigger sacrifices. And so I hope you found that helpful. If you did, please leave a quick thumbs up, thank you and take care..

As well as that comes down to the revenue and the assets that you'' re mosting likely to attract from to supply the sources you require to purchase the points you desire as well as require, and also one way to take a look at this is to say We wish to prevent early withdrawal penalties since once more, you are retiring at an age that'' s earlier than the normal senior citizen and the majority of pension are made for you to take withdrawals at 59.5 or later on, to avoid those fines, fortunately, you have a couple of alternatives, so with specific and also joint accounts, just taxed brokerage accounts, you can commonly take out from those with no fines, however you may have funding gains taxes when you market something, those tax obligations might be at a reduced rate than you would pay if you take large withdrawals from retirement accounts, however you simply intend to double and also three-way check that, yet that can be a fluid resource of funds.You.

Next, we have SEPP that means significantly equal routine settlements or policy 72. This is a chance to draw funds from, let'' s state your IRA or a particular IRA that you pick, but before age 59 and also a half without getting early withdrawal penalties.Now, this is not
my favorite choice. I put on ' t always advise this extremely frequently at all, as well as the reason is due to the fact that it ' s simple to slip up as well as end up paying tax obligation penalties. The factor for that is in component that it ' s actually rigid, so when you establish this, You compute a quantity that you have to secure every year, and also it needs to coincide quantity yearly, and also you have to make certain you do that for the longer of when you transform age 59 1/2 or for 5 years. As well as also that seems sort of easy, but it ' s still easy to trip up, and you likewise have to avoid making any type of sort of adjustments to your accounts, so it ' s just really stiff and can be difficult to stick to you, so … Not my preferred selection, yet it might be an alternative. Those of you that benefit governmental bodies, maybe a city company or something like that, you could have a 457b plan, as well as those plans do not have very early withdrawal charges prior to 59 and also a half, so you could withdraw money from that and use some earnings, pre pay some taxes, and also have some cash to spend relatively easily, this incidentally, is an argument for leaving money in your company ' s 457 versus rolling it over to an IRA, because once it visits an individual retirement account, you undergo those 59 1/2 regulations and a potential very early withdrawal penalty.So that can finish up leaving you with 72 to collaborate with, as an example, which once again is not perfect.
So you might be asking, well shouldn ' t I just decrease tax obligations as well as hold off on paying tax obligations for as lengthy as feasible? And also the solution is not necessarily. So it might make sense to go in advance and also pre pay some taxes by getting calculated, the reason for that is that you will at some point need to pay taxes on your pre tax obligation cash and it might occur in a large lump, which can bump you up right into the highest possible tax obligation braces, so it could be far better to ravel the price at which you draw from those accounts and hopefully keep yourself in reduced tax obligation brace, a minimum of relatively talking. So when your RMDs or your required minimum circulations start after age 72 under current legislation, that can potentially bump you up right into the greatest tax braces, possibly you intend to smooth points out and also take some income early.So allowed ' s take a look at the question of, Do you have enough with some particular numbers, and also prior to we glimpse at those numbers, just wish to mention that I am Justin Pritchard.
I help people intend for retirement and also spend for the future. I ' ve got some good sources, I believe, in the description listed below, a few of the important things that we ' ve been discussing right here today, as well as some basic retired life intending info. So if this is on your mind, I believe a whole lot of that is going to be truly handy for you. Please take'a take a look at that and let me recognize what you consider what you locate. It ' s additionally an excellent time for a friendly suggestion, This is just a brief video, I can ' t perhaps cover every little thing. So please three-way and quadruple talk to some professionals like a certified public accountant or a financial expert prior to you make any decisions, so let'' s obtain back right into these concerns, Do you have enough? As we constantly need to point out, it relies on where you are as well as how much you spend as well as exactly how things benefit you.Are you fortunate to retire into a good market, or are you unfortunate and also retiring right into a poor market? All of these various aspects are mosting likely to impact your success, but allow ' s leap over to my monetary preparation tool and have a look at an instance. This is simply a theoretical example, it ' s the world ' s most over streamlined instance, so please maintain that in mind, with a real person, we ' ve got a lot extra going on. The world is a difficult area and points obtain messier, yet we ' re maintaining it extremely basic right here, simply to speak about an example of exactly how things could look, so'he or she has one million in pre tax obligation assets and also 350,000 in a brokerage account, and also if'we simply rapidly eye their dashboard below, rather high possibility of success, so let ' s make it a little more fascinating and also state … Possibly that IRA has, allow ' s say, 700,000 in it. What is that going to do? And also by the way, this is still a lot more than a great deal of people have, however again, if you ' re going to be retiring at 55,
you usually have fairly reduced expenditures and/or a great deal of possessions. Let ' s maintain in mind right here that senior citizens put on ' t always invest at a level rising cost of living readjusted'level, and I ' ll get into the presumptions below in a 2nd, yet let ' s simply look at if this person spends at rising cost of living minus 1% using the retirement costs “smile,” that drastically improves their chances, and also I ' ve obtained videos on why you could take into consideration that as a prospective reality, so you can look into that later on at your leisure, however as far as the assumptions, we think “they invest about 50,000 a year, retire at age 55. The returns are 5.5 %'annually, and also inflation is 3 %each year. Wouldn ' t that be revitalizing if we obtained 3% … So we glimpse at their earnings below age 55, absolutely nothing, and also after that Social Safety kicks in at 70. They ' re doing a Social Protection bridge approach. I ' ve got videos on that as well, or a minimum of one video clip, the complete year begins here later, and then their Social Protection readjust for rising cost of living, checking out their tax obligations, we have absolutely no taxes in these earlier years due to the fact that they are simply not pulling from those pre tax obligation'accounts. Possibly not getting much, if anything, in terms of capital gains, possibly their deduction is wiping that out, so we might have a possibility here to in fact do something as well as once more, pre pay some tax obligations as well as draw some gross income forward.In truth, if we eye their government earnings tax obligation brace, you can see that it ' s rather reduced from 55 on, possibly they intend to pull several of this earnings onward to ensure that later on in life, they are drawing every little thing out of the pre tax accounts simultaneously. It simply depends upon what ' s
essential to you as well as what you intend to try to do, as well as that brings us to some pointers for doing computations, whether you are doing this with somebody, an economic coordinator or on your very own, you desire to check out that gap in between when you stop functioning and also when your revenue advantages start from, allow ' s say, Social Safety, there ' s likewise that void between when you quit functioning as well as when Medicare begins, which ' s one more crucial thing to check out, however what are your approaches available there? Should you take some revenue, as well as precisely just how much? That ' s mosting likely to be an area where you might have some control, so it ' s worth doing some great planning.We likewise want to look closely at the inflation and also financial investment returns, and what are the assumptions in any kind of software that you ' re using, for instance? These are actually vital inputs and they can dramatically transform what takes place … You saw what occurred when we switched over from a level'rising cost of living adjusted boost annually
to the retirement costs smile, simply a refined little adjustment has a large difference on how things unfold, and also in that scenario, incidentally, we would commonly have healthcare raising at a much faster rate.

' m Justin.
Pritchard, I assist people prepare for retired life as well as spend for the future. So, in the summary.
below, you'' re mosting likely to find some resources on this topic, and I'' ll include some links to calculators.
that you can make use of to run your own numbers. We'' ll beginning with a solitary person example.
and after that get involved in a pair, as well as these are over simplified instances however the vital point is to.
repaint the photo of exactly how things may unravel as well as reveal you exactly how you can run a few of these numbers.
yourself.We looked at a few of those data on investing and also if you ' re going to retire with.$'500,000 in assets unless you have some actually excellent retirement earnings you ' re most likely not going. to be on the high end of those stats so we ' ll presume someone here spending concerning 45'thousand. dollars each year going to obtain 2 000 a month of Social Safety and security revenue so we ' ll placed those. numbers right into our useful calculator here 45 000 of spending or revenue we ' re going to neglect. tax obligations for right currently however we ' ll get to that later on as well as she obtains 2 000 a month in Social Safety that. leaves 21 000 that she ' s mosting likely to require to take out from savings every year now you can play with an.
rising cost of living price and also obviously inflation is greater right currently the concern is will certainly it remain high. for the rest of your life
for the following three decades or something that would certainly be fascinating if it did. I ' m simply going to go with this for right now and one year away from retirement let ' s. state five as well as a half percent returns both before and during'retired life as well as 25 years. of life perhaps 30 years of life if we consider the estimations there this person requires around. 457 000 so depending on exactly how much she has if you already had 500,000 you may be all established nevertheless. again this is an oversimplification so we have actually ignored taxes let ' s assume that every one of that cash. remains in a pre-tax pension you ' re mosting likely to have to pay some income taxes when you take. withdrawals so one means to look at that is just to boost once again this is an oversimplification however. you may say allow ' s call it 50 000 and also think about 5 000 in taxes each year and what might. that indicate well that may indicate you require an extra 65 000 above the 500 000 you ' re thinking about. an additional problem is that this thinks flat returns annually as well as'the reality is that you ' re never going. to obtain precisely five and also a half percent some years you ' ll get 5, some years you ' ll get six, some. years you'' ll lose cash
, some years you ' ll earn extra, yet they normally put on ' t go in a straight. line so we need to wonder what would certainly take place if you have poor timing for instance if there ' s a. big market collision right at the beginning of your retirement.To assistance repaint a richer image. of that let ' s look at an economic planning program that ' s a bit much more durable so this. is claiming that she may have about a 50-50 possibility of success and I ' ve obtained some techniques to. enhance that yet just for starters that ' s a lot more or less
a coin throw so what does that mean. if there ' s a 50% chance of success this is a Monte Carlo analysis therefore what happens is. we might state that you get a thousand different hands of cards'. Some of those are really good. those might be the ones up below that'leave you with a lot of cash at the end of your retired life. or the end of your life several of them are really bad and you would run out of money
very early and also in. about 50 %of these cases you finish up simply making it you ' re probably not going to obtain the very best good luck. as you go right into retired life and also hopefully you put on ' t obtain the worst luck however we wish to have the ability to. represent a number of different varieties right here to make sure that if things are type of bad or pretty negative that. you have a decent chance'of making it so what can we do to improve those chances of success one way. is to adjust costs so if you ' re versatile then you can reduce what you spend in years
when points. are actually poor or you might also take a look at something like the retired life costs smile which is based. on some study from David Blanchett which claims that retired people might spend it roughly inflation.
here she ' s mosting likely to benefit another year then that earnings stops she ' s going to wait until age.
70 to take Social Protection so there are a pair years there with absolutely no revenue and afterwards a
partial. year then that complete Social Safety advantage kicks in obviously it ' s inflation adjusted
so'. it ' s actually greater out in the year 2029 those expenses are best around 45 000 when she'stops. functioning and there ' s that 5 thousand dollars of tax obligations due so in these initial couple of years. when she has no revenue she ' s mosting likely to be taking pretty big withdrawals to support her investing. however once that Social Safety and security earnings kicks in after that she can take a lot smaller sized circulations as well as.
that tax obligation expense is going to come down and also we can take a look at that if we take a look at what her tax. rate could be this is an effective tax obligation rate so this considers any kind of deductions that you ' ve. taken, uh, typically individuals pay surprisingly low taxes especially if you ' re at this possession degree. in retired life approximately$ 500,000 in cost savings if you have a number of million you ' re mosting likely to be. in greater tax obligation brackets especially later in life when you begin
taking those called for minimum. circulations however at this stage and with this asset degree the tax prices can be surprisingly reduced. for some individuals so that was our solitary example as well as currently we can look at a couple however I ' m not going. to experience all of those steps once more they ' ve got 2 incomes
being available in to ensure that makes. it a whole lot simpler to sustain higher spending degrees so allow ' s jump over to the quick calculator simply to. see how that looks so they desired 50 000 of income or investing they ' ve obtained 35 000 of Social Protection. coming right into the family to ensure that ' s just 15 000 they need to create out of their assets allow ' s. toss on a little bit additional just for some tax obligations and various other things so we ' ll keep every one of the various other. assumptions the exact same as well as it ' s a 30-year retired life here they can additionally make do with less than 500 000. once again neglecting some tax obligations and poor timing and also other things that might turn up as shocks yet with. an actually streamlined estimation they ' re at least kind of in the ballpark with concerning 500 000.
withdrawal price you need to wonder if you are selling on your own short as soon as again any kind of versatility. you have in retirement is very valuable so if you ' re able to alter your'investing in reaction to. just how the markets do if you are lacking cash more promptly than prepared for after that that is extremely. handy and also possibly you can retire sooner or possibly you can begin with a greater withdrawal rate versus. if every little thing is rigid and you ' re running rather slim after that you wish to select a reduced withdrawal. price since you put on ' t have a great deal of padding to adjust to life shocks so simply for recommendation. below we ' re looking at some information from JP Morgan, their research on withdrawal prices and also various. profiles as well as when may you have a relatively high degree of self-confidence when need to you be a lot more. worried and also'they give you an approximation what I such as regarding this is it doesn ' t just point at one. number it offers you some ranges and you can claim well I ' m comfy with
particular varieties I ' m great. with environment-friendly i wear ' t like anything less than dark green or you can claim I ' m going to dip into some. yellow because i desire to retire quicker and I ' m eager to take chances as well as especially perhaps
i can. make adjustments if things aren ' t going well so what about taxes we stated we chatted much more concerning that. and also tax obligations are essential this is mosting likely to minimize the amount of cash you have for costs you need. that indicates she only requires to draw out 21 000 from those pre-tax retired life accounts for. ignoring state revenue tax obligation and various other variables her tax burden is reasonably little however it. still takes a bite out of points therefore if she was thinking she has 45'000 of income that. social protection plus the withdrawals what ends up occurring is she has a little much less. She needs to either make up the difference or pull out added funds a great deal of individuals ask. regarding living off the rate of interest or just not dipping right into the savings yet investing the revenues as well as. the rewards that come off of their financial investments i get where that originates from probably you want to keep. some money around for a health and wellness treatment event or possibly you desire to offer assets to the future generation. or to your favored charity definitely makes good sense the truth regrettably is that for people who. have regarding 500 000 saved for retirement is that those people are usually mosting likely to have to invest. from their possessions so what ' s vital is that you make certain you put on ' t lacked cash prior to you. lacked life that goes back to some of those
planning inquiries as well as looking at a withdrawal. rate that is mosting likely to make it likely at least that you don ' t lacked cash as well as remember that. if you do run out of cash you might still have some social safety earnings and other sources. readily available however we truly desire you to be comfortable and also have assets to make use of for the remainder of your. life a couple of means you can enhance your possibilities are you can discover various products i put on ' t. market annuities and also they can certainly be mistreated yet an instant annuity as an example can pay you. earnings for the remainder of your life as well as it ' s pretty basic as well as low-cost you definitely don ' t want. to place all of your money right into something like that but it can assist if you are driven by a need. for security various other strategies like buckets or time segmentation might likewise aid you enhance. Your opportunities there are a whole lot of various ways to go about this it simply depends what really feels. for you and if you ' re lucky sufficient to own a residence and have some equity in it then that may. be available for you later on to help cover some requirements if some surprises turn up so as. you ' re figuring every one of this out what can you do to boost your opportunities of success there are a. great deal of moving parts however that indicates there are a lot of opportunities to make little modifications that.
can improve your opportunities keep in mind those retirement costs methods to make sure that ' s the go go sluggish. go and no go years where you may lower your spending by a specific amount as you go through. each phase or that retired life costs
smile which goes slightly slower than inflation but you. might intend to have specific groups of spending that go much faster than
basic rising cost of living like health and wellness. care expenditures as well as in the group of least prominent remedies there is working much longer now this could. be something that aids you remain to save money as well as if you ' re able to maybe spend extra on the. points you like then perhaps you can maintain functioning not a lot of people wish to do this but it is. truly effective that ' s due to the fact that it shortens the number of years that you take withdrawals plus.
it can assist your social safety or your pension plan benefit or both since you ' ve got more years of.
gaining perhaps higher profits and also you often tend to assert at a later age which normally assists your. profit the disadvantage of that I wear ' t need to tell you is that you need to maintain working longer. Also one year or a partial year can'make a big difference
and as well as your time as you evaluate. social protection and also various other decisions like that due to the fact that when you assert can have a huge influence. on what your revenue appears like as well as it can also open chances like leaving some of those. lower earnings years to make Roth conversions and you certainly wish to keep in mind rising cost of living as well as.

Nevertheless, if they can certify for an exemption or if you'' re over the age of 59.5, that would not apply and your complete tax could be no, you can even obtain tactical about this, so if you recognize that you'' re mosting likely to have a low earnings right here next year, you may wait to take a distribution, maybe it'' s November or December when you realize you want some money, and also if you can wait until January of the following year, that'' s great.Or possibly you divided circulations as well as take several of what you need in December and take the remainder in January, which may help you remain in low tax obligation brackets, or perhaps a 0% tax obligation bracket, Roth circulations are an additional possible method to obtain cash out free of tax, so you already paid income tax obligation on your payments, those need to come out free of tax, yet you require to be mindful of any kind of profits in your Roth accounts.

And if you'' re relocating cash over to an individual retirement account, things can look various as well, but this is the kind of study you desire to do, discover if you can make a qualified circulation, certainly, the option for making use of Roth might not matter if you'' ve invested your whole life putting in pre tax money, and also naturally, you did have to pay taxes when you make those payments, so once again, absolutely nothing is best below, like I said, you'' ve either paid it one way or another, yet these are means to potentially handle your tax obligations today.Next on the list of not best remedies is a 401K financing, so when you obtain from your 401K, you wear ' t owe taxes on'that withdrawal as long as you pay back the car loan on time, however if you wear'' t pay back, any overdue amount may be dealt with as a distribution which'' s subject to taxes as well as possibly early withdrawal charges, plus with fundings, you truly need to be mindful regarding leaving your task or losing your work, so you could be needed to pay back the superior car loan equilibrium when you quit working for your employer, yet you might not have those funds readily available to just settle a financing in a round figure, that'' s probably why you obtained in the very first place, in some instances, it is possible to balance out the financing amount by adding the cash to an IRA later on, yet those rules can be complicated, and again, you just need a swelling sum of cash to repay the loan, if you'' re mosting likely to do that … What regarding that Obligatory tax withholding? When you take a cash circulation from a 401k, the strategy usually has to withhold 20% of the gross quantity and also send that over to the IRS, as well as that'' s an advance settlement or a down payment on your ultimate tax obligation costs for the year, it'' s not necessarily the exact amount you owe … It'' s simply a down payment. You could owe a lot more, you might owe much less … That'' s bothersome if you need the total that'' s in your 401k, if you can'' t afford to do without that 20%, so as a possible remedy, you might move every one of that cash out of the 401K over to an individual retirement account, an individual retired life account that you regulate and afterwards from there, you can take circulations making use of whatever tax obligation withholding degree you desire, it may be 20%, 10% or absolutely no, once again, bear in mind that you may owe tax obligations on that particular later, as well as not withholding enough might wind up in there being a huge tax expense later in the year and potentially some under payment charges, so there are a number of challenges with that method, and also you also require to be able to take a distribution from your 401k that could not be possible unless you have actually left your job.So it'' s vital to take a look at all these details. By the way, I'' m Justin Pritchard, and also I help people prepare for retirement as well as invest for the future, and also I'' m going to place some resources in the summary below, extra on this subject concerning these tax obligations on 401 withdrawals, individual retirement account withdrawals, I believe you'' ll discover that valuable, there will likewise be some general retirement planning info, simply broad view stuff that I assume will be truly handy, so make certain to examine that out, and also it'' s also a great time to bear in mind, this is simply a short video clip, we'' re not covering whatever right here, it'' s just type of some food for idea, so certainly do some even more research study, three-way check everything and talk to a professional before you make any kind of decisions, so what if your main issue is the fine tax, you'' re under age 59 and fifty percent, as well as you'' re taking a circulation, what are some ways to a minimum of prevent that, also if you need to pay income tax obligations?

You still generally owe revenue taxes if it'' s a taxed circulation, that age can go even reduced for public safety employees, there'' s additionally the 72t or substantially equivalent periodic repayments, as an example, that would certainly allow you to take a series of settlements from your pre tax accounts, as well as you can start those before age 59 1/2, getting the cash without the early withdrawal charge, but the approach can be type of inflexible and also difficult, you need to do it for at the very least 5 years, or age 59 and also a half, whichever is much longer, as well as if you make any type of type of little blunder, which is simple, then you could thwart the entire method as well as you would retroactively owe taxes.You have to
be extremely mindful keeping that one, yet it could be a solution. There are likewise 457 strategies out there that wear'' t have an early withdrawal charge, so if you have a governmental 457 B, as an example, you need to have the ability to take withdrawals at any kind of age without a very early circulation penalty. That'' s important to bear in mind, possibly you leave that job in your 30s or 40s or something like that, you might take into consideration leaving the funds in that 457 because after that you have the flexibility to gain access to that money early without the penalty. Preferably. You wait for later on. Often life takes place. That'' s wonderful to have. There are numerous various other exemptions too, so be sure to research those on the internal revenue service internet site or with your tax specialist, and you might obtain some great suggestions, naturally, Captain Obvious would certainly claim, Wait till age 59 and also a fifty percent, which could be possible if you'' re already in your late 50s, possibly you just have a number of years to go. Possibly there are some alternative resources of the funds to choose from, and if you can just make it a couple of years, you have saved that 10%, which can truly make a wonderful difference.Next, we have actually certified charitable distributions or QCDs, so if you are charitably minded, you can offer money straight to a tax professional charity from your individual retirement account, and note that this is from an individual retirement account, not a 401k, so when this is done correctly that contribution is not consisted of in your earnings, despite the fact that you pull the cash out of a pre tax retirement account, so if you ' re going to donate cash anyhow, it ' s truly worth examining this alternative', and that ' s since you ' ll reduce your tax'worry and by skipping the tax repayment, that leaves more cash for your favorite charity in other words, you put on ' t have to take a distribution, pay the'tax obligations on it and afterwards provide the remainder to charity, you can reduce out the middle action and simply send out all of the cash straight to a charity, be certain to review this approach very thoroughly with your tax professional, due to the fact that there are some regulations and constraints to be conscious of specific age limitations as well as optimal quantities, however if you can satisfy every one of those, it ' s a fantastic method, be'sure to have a look at my various other video clips on tax obligations as well as retirement accounts.And if you discovered this practical, please leave a quick thumbs up.

A lot of us recognize that, but when you go from the wedded filing jointly tax obligation brackets right into the single brackets, as well as often, it can create a large increase in tax obligations in addition to a loss of revenue keeping that social safety and security check vanishing, so we're going to consider some different contingencies. Again, my goal right here is to simply get you to begin believing and connecting those dots. we've rested with thousands of families for many years i can't potentially look at each and every single circumstance there is available the primary goal is simply to get you thinking obtain you to link those dots and also comprehend that choices need to be made and also there are effects for these choices as well as usually those effects will not be understood till 10 20 years down the roadway all right checking out these revenue goals once again since we're creating right here a go go slow go no go your go go years you're spending more your slogo you're decreasing yet you're still going out to dinner you're still doing points in the no go you're actually simply not going anywhere maybe to the medical professional's workplace however you're investing a great deal of time in your home currently all of these numbers are mosting likely to pump up significance in one decade so the method we take a look at this is 50 000 is the base living cost number then this 50 000 takes place top of it for a period of 10 times or ten years so it's a hundred thousand for the first 10 years after that this set goes away as well as now this set starts a 25 000 spending objective on top of the base costs of 50 000 so every one of these are mosting likely to blow up meaning in today's bucks this is what we wish to be investing however rising cost of living erodes our buying power in time so if we want to invest a hundred thousand bucks a year we need to be pulling a bit much more out each year to maintain our buying power in today's dollars currently we use a 2.25 percent inflation rate for this instance i know rising cost of living in the economy is presently higher than that however we do not expect that inflation to last for the following 20 to thirty years.
in fact the marketplaces if we look at the 10-year treasury rate which the bond market is a fantastic kind of soothsayer allow's let's allow's call it of what rising cost of living is expected to be in the future the 10-year treasury price now as as of tape-recording this video is at about 2 and also a half percent that coincides rate as before covid the exact same price when president trump obtained elected as well as also the same rate when head of state obama obtained elected for his second term so the marketplaces are informing us that they do not anticipate rising cost of living to be a serious factor to consider over the following a number of years they do anticipate like the fed claims it to be more transitory currently that's what we're finishing with inflation right here okay for social safety we're checking out this first instance both of them taking it at 67 . We have john and also jane john's is 36 thousand bucks a year jane's is 31 000 715. financial investment accounts so in jane's 401 k she has 250 000 in john's he has 700 000 and also they have 50 000 below in financial savings now something to aim out here a lot of this money is in what's called professional pension that suggests they've obtained a tax deduction for putting money into that account but in retired life every single time they require cash because they just have fifty thousand in financial savings they go to take it out they're mosting likely to need to pay revenue taxes now i would certainly have liked to see an extra diversified what we call a tax obligation diversified structure leading right into retirement significance we're saving much more in this after-tax pail ideally we have some cash inside a roth ira yet this isn't still this isn't poor if you're in that million dollar array 1.2 800 000 someplace around there anything much less than that it's not as poor as if you have two or 3 million inside that 401k that becomes a problem for tax obligations down the roadway so this is in fact fine I'm great with this money being in the qualified buckets, but if it starts to get a substantial quantity higher, we certainly want much more tax obligation diversification. okay currently we're going to look at the monte carlo simulation so this runs a thousand different simulations of numerous market returns to make sure that indicates one year could be plus four percent plus twelve percent minus fifteen plus eighteen minus 6 plus 9 that would be one simulation that series of returns we're gon na take a look at a hundred of those different simulations to determine a probability that this couple retiring at age 60 spending a hundred thousand for 10 years after that seventy five thousand for 8 and after that fifty thousand forever intended expiry both of them at age ninety and also rising cost of living at 2 as well as a quarter percent bear in mind all this revenue is going to boost with rising cost of living at that 2.25 percent annualized price moving into the future all right so this thousand simulations a number of things to mention here first it is available in at 80 percent so 80 is in the eco-friendly it's not a terrible number it's much better than 50 or 60 . That's for certain it's not 90 95 99 though one huge thing i wish to note right here and simply genuine fast what this suggests is if you were to retire a thousand times in concerning 800 of them you need to be all right you must pass away with money the green lines these stand for a different simulation out of those 1000 so if i click here we die in this particular highlighted simulation with a little over five hundred thousand dollars left below with 443 873 a truly great one 1.7 million several of these simulations that 20 percent we do go out down right here.
however below's a huge big big takeaway in this example the in all of the simulations essentially the properties are invested down in the starting so this places us into a precarious position perhaps if in these beginning years where the accounts are dropping because we're spending much more remember this couple hypothetically is retiring at age 60 . So they can't turn on social security, yet they have to draw from their pension. They're most likely to pay taxes on those withdrawals, so we really need to take out even more than $100 in this spending objective scenario, and we're extremely prone to the sequence of returns. Okay, once more if you're new to the channel, the series of returns threat is the combination of taking revenue out of your portfolio with market losses. If you secure five percent and also the market goes down 15 you're down 20 so your 1 million goes to 800,000 yet to obtain that very same level of revenue in the list below year you have to now take a hundred thousand bucks out but you only have eight hundred grand left so it's a higher portion that you need to get. That's the series of returns. Take the chance that if you shed money in the initial couple of years, you dramatically decrease the chance of success in retired life, so I intend to talk a little about Roth conversions now. Due to the fact that this couple has all of their cash inside their retirement accounts, there's truly no excess cash outside besides the $500,000 in cost savings to pay the taxes on any type of Roth conversion. Additionally, because they're retiring more youthfully, they're compelled to take out even more cash from the portfolio. In this certain circumstance, I probably would not encourage any kind of Roth conversions, although all their money is inside that tax-ravaged pension. the factor is if we do a conversion where we have to compose the federal government a check one it would certainly have to come out of the 401k or the individual retirement account so we need to take more out pay taxes on that particular send it to the federal government whatever's left to pay tax obligation on the conversion but we're taking more cash out of the account which leaves us much less to earn passion on we're already in a vulnerable position here if the marketplace drops hey real quick while we're on the subject of tax obligations we're going to be doing an online stream on this channel when head of state biden passes his new tax obligation legislation this is going to be a game changer for retirement it really genuinely is i believe we're going to undergo the regulations we're mosting likely to utilize our resources we're mosting likely to consolidate it to bite-size pieces What is most likely to influence you, but to go to that online stream, you have to register for the channel, so make sure to subscribe. So in this particular situation, if we have an actually good year out there and the accounts go up to 300 000 this year, next year, and the following year, and we're sitting at 1.5 as well as now that they're a bit older, fine, extremely possibly we're going to re-look at that, we're most likely to re-look at it yearly, however, that may put us right into a position where it makes even more sense to do a Roth conversion now. one more reason i wouldn't consider concern be bothered with roth conversions for this certain pair is also though you have a million dollars in this instance the among the huge reasons you think about roth conversions is due to the fact that you have so much in the retired life accounts that as soon as you obtain to RMDA age which is 72 called for minimum distributions you're forced to start taking cash out of that account as well as pay taxes on it that can place you into a very high earnings tax obligation bracket a lot greater potentially than you were in in the working years if you likewise have a pension plan if you have any rental earnings if you have a substantial source of various other revenue from various other areas having a lot of money inside pension can place you right into very high tax obligation brackets when r d start it's a little under four percent that you should disperse at 72 but it goes up from four five six seven eight nine 10 11 as you age throughout your 70s 80s as well as into your 90s so if we look below this theoretical instance their tax obligations aren't substantial these aren't killer taxes currently of course we have some pending tax modifications upcoming with some regulation this is considering the existing tax obligation code if they maintain their word in congress and also not increase tax obligations on individuals in this income range it should not be a huge bargain for this family members down the roadway so we see if we theorize out into the future or or look out their tax obligations they are they're not massive this isn't anything as an economic consultant as a retirement coordinator that i'm ultra worried about i ‘d much instead maintain the cash in the account.
gaining interest as opposed to writing look for conversions and sending it to the government due to the fact that they are currently in an at risk setting retiring young so not a huge bargain here fine currently i intend to check out a visual depiction of the costs objective compared to the social protection revenue as well as recognize the shortfall this is a very crucial action when we're income preparation we have to not only identify the shortage certainly but we have to identify what is the very best economic device to create that capital which tax obligation buckets need to it come from your individual retirement accounts or your non-iras normally talking yet the very first action in doing all of that is recognizing where the shortages are so this is the rising cost of living adjusted go go slow-moving go no go spending earnings plan and also we see it begins at 100 000 since of inflation it rises to 120 slogo slogo years 70 or 71 this starts for for this pair still boosting with rising cost of living and after that the no go years where they're not going anywhere social protection fine this is the only resource of secure revenue we have in the prepare for this household we see social security remember i stated it's most likely to start at age 67 for both partners it stands for a respectable chunk of the revenue specifically on these out years however they're not taking it for 6 as well as a half seven years in this example so one of the huge challenges below are the shortfalls in the beginning this is why they obtain right into a susceptible placement because in order to spend more in the go-go years as well as retire at 60 they have to pull more money out of the profile so we're taking out we have the shortage here quite considerable shortage so typically what i'll see if a person is available in to take a seat with me or one of our experts we're doing planning for an instance like this nearly 70 80 percent of the time the family's mosting likely to claim troy i'm simply going to take social security sooner as well as in theory that makes sense since you're most likely to take social safety which is mosting likely to decrease the need for profile withdrawals and what's what is for some individuals that is the appropriate technique for others it's not it simply so various items interacting together truly needs this kind of extensive evaluation however i simply intended to explain right here the shortfalls prior to i dive into the social safety analysis to allow you recognize where the shortfalls are once again if we check out these numbers they're pretty huge particularly in the initial pair of years now for the social safety and security evaluation so we're going to take a look at advancing earnings received if they make it up until life span yet additionally fairly talking what are the yearly earnings numbers received if they take it very early versus complete retired life age no need in this example to wait until 70 due to the fact that they're retiring early only have a million dollars they're most definitely going to take it at 62 or 67 or somewhere in between so here are the chances just to be fast concerning this it's really and i do not see this frequently 82 across the board regarding likelihood of success despite if they take social security at 62 or 67.
One thing to point out they take it at 70 it drops to 58 now that means 58 of the time they're going to not run out of money but 42 of the time they would run out of money and only be left with social security later in life that's not a good thing now annual income and cumulative income received versus taking it at 62 versus 67 for john 25 200 versus 36 000 and then for jane 22 2 versus 31 715 1.374 million received from social security from 62 until 90. 1.625 million received from social security from age 67 until 90. this assumes they both make it to 90. now a couple of things to consider first if one spouse pre-deceases the other unexpectedly the smallest social security check goes away and the family is left with the larger of the two if one spouse is unhealthy or not expected to live as long or one spouse is expected to live much longer it may make sense to do some combination strategy here where the highest earning spouse with the largest social security defers as long as possible that way if he passes away that higher social security check will stay in the family now that's one thing to consider the second thing to consider here is in the real world when we're sitting down with you and going through and doing a review let's say you retire at 60 one of the things we're going to be talking about when we sit down and do reviews is what is the portfolio doing what is the forecast for the economy what is your entire situation what are you actually spending we track this progress over time in this plan and our clients actually have access to the plan digitally so we'll sit down and we'll talk to you about it so in the real world if the portfolio is up 30 or 40 percent let's say over a three or four year period and we hit 62 and you're not very aggressive with the portfolio for example let's say we felt good about things we decided to tilt it a little bit more aggressively in the beginning years of retirement we say you know what maybe let's defer social security because that's a guaranteed lifetime income and guaranteed growth to that payment and let's take some of those profits out of the portfolio that reduces the risk let's reduce your equity exposure and let social security defer one more year so in the real world it's not just about the math it's about so many other things and this is again the light bulb moment once you start to realize all the decisions that you have to make and all of the variables out there we can never make 100 percent the best decision 100 percent of the time we have to make the best decision as frequently as we can but looking at all of these different variables and then talking it out and having a conversation it's not retirement planning financial markets taxes income all this stuff it's not necessarily always black and white there's a lot of gray this is why working with someone who understands these nuances can help provide better information so you can make a more intelligent decision all right now we're going to look at what is called the play zone so our clients love this because they can actually log in and start to move this little slider around especially if they're not retired and see the impact of working one more year or retiring one year sooner so what i'm going to do now is let's say john says you know what i don't hate my job and i don't really know what i would do if i retire i think i'll probably go to 62.
Well all these same variables that we've looked at it jumps now from 80 82 percent up to 95 96 percent now let's say john absolutely doesn't want to work anymore he's fed up he hates his boss he doesn't like the commute he just is tired 82 i'm not comfortable with that i like to have a little bit higher what if in the go-go years we only spend we target spending 95 000 for the first 10 years okay that jumps it up to 90.
Okay well what if we then couple that with reducing our slogo spending okay now i'm up to 95. now john's feeling pretty good about pulling the cord and retiring all we had to do was connect him to what his spending meant for his portfolio longevity and show that hey if we just plan on spending somewhere between that 90 to 95 000 range instead of 100 much more comfortable probabilities now in the real world again we tend to find people spend more money in the first couple years of retirement this is typical but then it will also typically reduce no one's going to spend exactly a hundred thousand dollars a year for the next 10 years this is why it's so important to be connected to your money to do reviews to have a relationship with a financial advisor who understands retirement we're going to do this analysis every single year when we have conversations with you this is what our job is the market goes down the market does really really well we can spend more we may have to spend less all of these pieces are connected now we're going to look at a really cool feature and this is what are you afraid of so we get this all the time so most of our clients just simply don't want to see their portfolio go like this throughout retirement they want steady predictable streams of income coming from multiple different places increasing income sources the market crashes they don't want to lose 40 or 50 percent of their money but they're also concerned about taxes and inflation and long-term care so this module right here we're going to look at what are you afraid of so let's say we're wrong about inflation okay let the bond market as i said earlier is telling us that inflation long term is not a concern that's what the bond market's telling us but congress is spending a whole lot of money the federal reserve has printed trillions and trillions and trillions of dollars maybe we're wrong maybe the bond market's wrong what happens to this plan if inflation goes up to 3.25 from the 2.25 well this is the problem for this particular plan now everything that we had earlier in the play zone where we reduced that spending possibly worked a little bit longer those changes are not affecting this right here we're still at that 82 probability the base case but again this assumes that inflation is 3.25 now and remains that way indefinitely until planned expiration but i do want to show the power of inflation how that can destroy the purchasing power and reduce the probability of success for your retirement what if this is one we hear a lot social security gets cut let's say your benefits get reduced by 15 it drops it to 62 percent in this particular example now i do not believe your social security is going to be reduced i guess it is possible if you are in this means-tested category that congress may come up with in the future let's say if you have x amount of dollars or if you have this amount of income maybe they'll say you don't need your social security with some of the things that we have pending in this tax legislation right now in the reconciliation bill i wouldn't doubt it honestly if that's a consideration down the road i would assume it's not going to impact the majority of people in retirement so just my gut most of you probably do not have to worry about social security cuts but it's something that could happen okay low returns this is the biggest one i think most people are in jeopardy of because in retirement once you cross it's like a line of demarcation once you cross over from the accumulation phase and you enter the distribution phase the retirement years volatility in the market again this is from my experience working with thousands of families over the course of my career we get more sensitive to volatility the average investor tends to make bad decisions with their portfolio selling at the wrong time can cause your portfolio to lose 10 15 20 of its value that it that it otherwise would have extrapolated out over many years we could very easily see a reduction in average returns of one percent drops it to 73 one of the worst things we can do is allow the news the noise out there dictate what we do with our investment portfolio we don't have crystal balls and there's so many emotions tied into investing if you take your money out every time the market drops five percent because you're scared of it going down 30 percent you're making mistakes you're costing yourself money long term and you probably shouldn't be in stocks probably shouldn't what happens if you die early live long let's say john dies at 79 but jane lives to 94.
it's not good drops it to 53 percent that's one social security check going away now again in the real world we would adjust for jane the spending keep her connected to the portfolio make sure that she understood how much she could spend and also uh it's just it's just being connected that's the big thing in that particular moment long-term care home health care these expenses are a big concern for our clients so if we stress test it for home health care long term care let's say john passes away naturally no need for long-term care but jane does have a concern that at age 85 she may need let's say eighty four thousand dollars a year seven thousand a month probability drops to sixty six percent so these are some of the let's call it a sensitivity analysis or contingency test to determine how some of these variables that we're just looking at as statics throughout the plan generally speaking how anyone individually or we can look at a combination of these at the same time how they impact your retirement plan so everything that we do on these videos everything we do with clients when we're looking at this type of analysis it's very important to keep in mind that it's just a snapshot in time next year everything's going to look a little bit differently your portfolios will have changed you will have spent different levels even emotionally things may be different as far as our goals and what we're trying to accomplish our belief in this the markets etc so we have to stay connected this is what retirement planning is about it's not just here's your plan see you later manage the investments it's not a retirement plan that's not helpful that's not anything that anyone should do i hope you enjoyed today's video got into some of the nuances some things that we have never covered before if you have any questions comments put them down below and we look forward to seeing you on the next video [Music] you
