Frequently Asked Questions
When should I start planning for retirement?
Ideally 5–10 years before your target retirement date, but it's never too late to create a solid plan.
How much do I need to retire comfortably?
A good rule of thumb is 25x your desired annual retirement income in savings — so $5,000/mo in income needs ~$1.5M saved.
What's the difference between a fiduciary and a broker?
Fiduciaries are legally required to act in your best interest. Brokers only need to recommend 'suitable' products — which isn't the same thing.
How often should I review my retirement plan?
Annually at minimum, and whenever you experience major life changes like a job change, inheritance, health shift, or market swings.
