Objectives

More
Americans than ever are living to be
100 years of age and more, and those
numbers are projected to just keep on
rising. Your own personal odds of reaching
100 years old are the highest they have
ever been! One out of every 20 Americans
in their 40s and 50s right now may well
make it all the way to 100 plus. With
this fact in mind, it is doubly important
to assess your fiscal condition and
ensure that your savings will see you
through a long and happy retirement.
The last thing you want to have to worry
about is running out of money. Two options
to take a look at include:
| |
 |
Fixed
annuities—You collect
a set amount of money every month
for life |
| |
 |
Equities—Keep
a substantial amount of dollars
in equities, even as you close
in on retirement and beyond. The
returns can help you fight inflation
better than bonds will

retirement plans fall under the umbrella
of qualified plans. The qualified designation
simply means that the plan grants the
company and its employees beneficial
tax advantages (like tax deferment)
provided it meets specific prerequisites.
