Wise Quotes
On Holistic Retirement Planning
“Holistic planning is not traditional. Most Financial Planning is kind of transactional in nature and it’s specific to a certain transaction or a certain goal. But when you when it comes to retirement planning and we’re going to plan for decades, right? The quality of the planning becomes much more important and holistic planning is taking in all the aspects. So it’s certainly much more than investing right? You’re looking at the tax implications over time, healthcare, and will my money run out? The five W’s are the five key areas of wealth management so it’s it includes investment planning, it includes income planning, tax planning, health care planning and legacy or estate planning. So there’s a kind of the five big areas and you can’t really neglect any of those. So if you’re leaving one or two of those off, you really don’t have a complete plan.”
On Risk and Holistic Retirement Planning
“A lot of times people don’t understand sequence of returns risk for one. And a big reason for that is because they’ve never had to deal with it. All during their working years, there is no sequence of returns risk. It’s only as they get close to retirement and then in those retirement years. And people don’t really know how that works and what is the risk. And so that’s one big area where we like to educate them. You really can manage it well when you have a strategy to do so, but if you don’t have that strategy. then there’s more risk than you should take. Inflation, of course, losing buying power every year is something you have to account for. And a lot of times people aren’t really thinking through that. RMDs that kick in and can cause additional taxation. We call them tax triggers. It’s like you kind of think you kind of know what the tax brackets are and then, Oh, wait a minute. Now I have some extra tax on this or my Medicare goes up. And so there’s little surprises like that. We like to shine a light on and make sure we’re not doing things that cause our money to be depleted prematurely.”
On Market Volatility
“We don’t ever like to make predictions. But one prediction I can make is that there will be volatility in the markets. There always is. It’s in the nature of the markets and you just you’ve got the timeframes and you’ve got the right strategies. It’s nothing to be feared. Lack of preparation is something to be feared.”
