Sadly, while we focus most of our efforts before we retire, we often forget to plan for “life after work”!
Why Retirement Planning is Important
What will your retirement look like? Could we run out of money in retirement? Are we investing in the right places? How much will we need in retirement? Will Government and Employer pension plans cover us through retirement?
If we don't plan for retirement, we'll never be able to prepare for it. And an ill-prepared retirement is bound to be one filled with financial stress and chaos! Fail to plan, plan to fail!
