Mid to Late Career or Already in Retirement
Mid to Late Career or Already in Retirement
It's Important to Understand the Stages of the Financial Planning Life Cycle
Mid to Late Career is Your Preserving & Increasing Wealth Stage
Already in Retirement is Your Living on Saved Wealth Stage
These Stages are Closely Linked and Must be Considered Together
Although these are two distinct stages, we believe that they must be considered together when planning for a financially successful retirement. In your Mid to Late Career we're focused on preserving and increasing your wealth, and we're planning how to create a continuing income stream for your Retirement when you are living on your saved wealth.
If you plan and execute effectively in your Mid to Late Career, you may have the option to retire at an earlier age than you may have thought! This option gives you the choice to retire, keep working, pursue a passion project or even start a business that suits your retirement lifestyle.
