Aligning Your Retirement Plans

If you have a spouse or a partner, your retirement isn’t just your own. You may dream of spending weeks at a time fishing, but if your partner is prone to seasickness, you’ll need to reevaluate. Likewise, if there is a significant age gap, you may need to wait ten years before you both hit the road in a Winnebago.

Like marriage, retirement involves compromise. Align your retirement goals ahead of time, thinking through how you will spend your time and your money:

• Where will you retire?
• Will you travel or stay in one place?
• What big investments will you make?
• Will you live to the extent of your income or leave your children a substantial inheritance?
  

If you have a ‘bucket list’, find out if your spouse has one too. Decide what you want to do together while you still can. It can be a great motivator to have someone pushing you to do the things you’ve always talked about doing.

Make sure you and your partner are on track for retirement. To find out how, contact us, or register for the Striding to Success Pre-Retirement Boot Camp.
