Without the proper guidance, planning your retirement can feel like a confusing maze full of complicated details and difficult decisions. Many turns can take you down the wrong path.

Retirement planning is primarily based on risk tolerance. Some people are super conservative and don’t want to risk losing anything, even if that means lower financial gains. Other people are not so risk-averse and like to gamble with their money for a chance at attaining larger financial rewards.

Conservative vs Aggressive Retirement Planning

But when you’re near retirement, you must protect yourself from sudden changes in the financial market – especially during unstable economic times. You don’t have enough time to regain losses from market volatility before you retire, so you need to shift to a more conservative plan.

During your free assessment, we assess your risk tolerance and develop a plan to adjust your current portfolio to reduce costs and protect your assets from market volatility while still working towards your goals.
