What Retirement Income Puts You In The Top 1%
user 0 Comments Retire Wealthy Tips for Retiree's
what income does it take to be in the top one percent of all retirees you'd think that'd be a relatively simple project to research turns out it wasn't so stick around and benefit from the work that I did to uncover these hard to find numbers let's go for a walk and talk about it and you know the first thing I want to observe is that most of us probably would not recognize could not tell by the lifestyle folks that are in the top 10 percent of all retiree income when I get to the numbers I I think you'll you'll say okay I think I would be able to recognize people that are in the top one percent I'll give you a hint it's a it's a much bigger number than than I thought it was going to be okay and and so why is that you know why wouldn't we recognize uh the folks that are in the top 10 percent and it's because like a lot of things in life you know if you look at Millionaires and millionaires lifestyle you know 70 of millionaires in America are self-made made and and most of them most of us uh got there by being you know uh careful with our money and and and being good Savers is as much as uh being fortunate and and receiving a good salary along the way okay so I'm going to start off with what these numbers look like for all Americans and this is from a large data set they say it's the largest population data set uh in the world and the organization is called ipums and this is for all Americans not just retirees so to be in the top well first let's start off with median and and this is household this is household income the median household income uh in the United States for for everybody all ages is is seventy thousand dollars to be in the top 25 you've got to make about a hundred and thirty thousand dollars to be in the top 10 you're making a little over two hundred thousand dollars that the household income a little over two hundred thousand it's two hundred and twelve thousand and to be in the top one percent you're making over five hundred thousand dollars a year now um and the number is five hundred and seventy thousand what was interesting is each of those groups from um 2021 to 2022 so this is a data set uh that they released the results of at the end of 2022.
each of those groups got a raise between 2021 and 2022. unfortunately from the median and Below on an inflation adjusted basis folks that are at the median below uh are actually making less on an inflation-adjusted basis folks that are above the median are making more in 2022 and we've heard this play out in the press okay so so those are the income levels now let's talk about savings and there's a really interesting point I wanna I wanna share with you here okay to be in the um to be in the top one percent of Savers in the United States this is the top one percent if you're between 65 and 69 75 and 79 or over 80. it's to be in the top one percent you've got to have 2.7 million dollars in what's called net worth and net worth is just take all of your assets all of your savings accounts the value if you own a house the value of your house and subtract from it the the the debt that you have on that essentially so you just take all of your assets and you subtract all your liabilities your car alone your your mortgage your credit card debt hopefully you don't have too many of the latter two uh and that's your net worth so uh if you have a net worth of 2.7 million dollars a household net worth uh in the United States you're in the top one percent what I want to point out is you know if you look at the income boy that income is really staggering right I mean the top one percent of income is 570 000 or higher and you know some people will say well you know that number seemed a little low I was expecting that top one percent income to be higher and I I agree but that's like the last person that made it into the top one percent so there's plenty of people in that category that are making a lot more money but think about this you know the the lowest income in the top one percent is almost six hundred thousand dollars right it's five hundred and seventy thousand dollars yet to be the top one percent in savings you just need two point seven million dollars or more um and what that tells me is you know as a society as a country it's no surprise we're not saving enough money and so um it's not enough to make a great salary you've got to be able to to save it but to me that was just staggering that you know essentially that top one percent you know if they were the Savers they essentially have saved um what five years worth of income uh and most of us could not retire if we had just saved five years worth of income right so that just shows just the the importance of living below your means and and saving as much as you can okay let's keep going now I'm going to break it out by decile and again this is household this is according to the Congressional research service so the the lower quintile so there's five groups the lower one-fifth the lower 20 percent of Americans are making under twenty two thousand dollars a year then the next group up from that are making you know between that twenty two thousand and forty thousand the next group up to that is is making between forty thousand and sixty five thousand um so you can see that you know eighty percent of Americans households are making less than sixty five thousand dollars a year now I haven't got to retirement that's coming up here really soon um let me get to the top quintile the top quintile households in America are a little over a hundred and ten thousand dollars let's call it a hundred and eleven thousand dollars okay so now let's get to what I finally was able to find out so I've shared a lot of info information here and I think many of you are listening to this this uh these numbers and saying you know what I'm doing okay you know it's hard to get that high high salary but if you're saving and if if you're uh spending less than you earn if you're saving that and then importantly if you're investing that remember it's not enough to just save you have to invest it you have to get compounding working for you so a lot of you I think are looking at the at least the savings number and saying yeah we're doing okay we're doing okay and I hope you are I hope you are okay so now getting on to the uh uh the the top income in retirement uh and before I get there if you're enjoying this video take a quick second and hit the like button it really does help the algorithm uh find other people that this this video uh and my videos can help okay so um I'm gonna break this out the top 10 percent the top five percent and the top one percent so people 65 to 69.
Now this is people that are working and not working top ten percent is two hundred thousand top five percent is two hundred and sixty thousand top one percent is essentially one million dollars okay so that's 65 to 69 and now for people 70 to 74 numbers come down a little bit top 10 percent is a hundred and seventy thousand dollars top five percent uh is 260. is that right yeah 265 000 and and the last number is a million dollars so retirees to be in the top one percent of all people 65 and older you need to be making a million dollars a year just to put that in perspective that rule of 25.
if that's what the uh if that's what the income is then they had they'd have to have 25 million dollars in savings by the the rule of four percent I hope you found this video helpful if you did I know you're going to like this video up here that talks about average income for retirees in America in this video down here that talks about five reasons to retire as soon as you can thanks for watching bye bye

Retirement Planning During Bear Markets – Especially if It’s Your First One In Retirement
user 0 Comments Retire Wealthy Tips for Retiree's
bear markets can feel a lot different when you're retired and you're no longer earning income from work especially if this is your first bear Market since you stopped working when you were younger you know you had time on your side you know you may have even seen drops in the market as an opportunity because it gave you additional time and you got to purchase more shares well things were on sale so to speak but now most likely that's not the case the relationship between our money and our accounts now are of money going out versus money going in to put it simply and plus you may have noticed that there's this psychological component now around money and not wanting to mess things up because the decisions we make really carried much more weight now when we're close to or in retirement and it's really that's not only psychological or emotional it's true because planning the distributions is much more complex than the the planning around around saving and putting money into the investment accounts what led to our investment success the last 30 years is a lot different than what's going to lead to success the next 20 or 30 years or at last that's at least what we've been seeing at streamline Financial since 1998 since we've been around so I want to share how to endure through bad markets if you're close to retirement or you're already retired and then what you can do to actually take advantage of of this even if you're already retired and you're no longer saving money and we're going to do that because we know a universal law of physics that can't be disproven and we can actually apply it to our retirement and make it a little bit better if you're thinking Dave what the heck are you talking about here's a brief explanation so Newton's third law of motion is that every action there's an equal and opposite reaction right you've heard that before so the way that I see it is there's a positive to every negative and the same thing there's a negative to every positive it's the law of polarity so I want to share what the positive is to take advantage of during bad markets and by the way if I haven't met you yet I'm Dave zoller and Tim and Luke and I and Sean we run streamline Financial it's a retirement planning firm and we've been around like I had said since 98 so we've seen clients really go through it all the.com bust the financial crisis and then covet and then all the things in between all those uh you know those mini panics that we've had so we created this channel to share what's working and what has worked for them and so that you can hopefully glean some wisdom from them and then apply it to your your own life so the first thing we need to be aware of is that the previous 30 years there were four bear Market Corrections so that's a drop of 20 or more and then the 30 years before that there was a total of five bear Market Corrections so the main takeaway is we need to expect these bear markets to happen during our retirement during that next 20 30 years right the second thing is we don't want to make a change solely on an emotion right and it's not not just making a drastic change like selling everything and putting everything under the mattress right it's we were just talking to someone yesterday and emotions can cause us not to take an action when we know doing so is actually the Smart Financial thing to do for instance during March of 2020 when it wasn't easy to rebalance your accounts it was very difficult to do but if you did follow through and and do the correct rebalancing system or strategy if you were looking back now it could have made a lot of sense the third thing is update your income plan because that helps guide us and make really good planning decisions around our investment plan so it's really start with the income plan you've heard that before and that helps us make the investment decisions versus the other way around and updating your income plan during bad markets that can also give you some confidence as well as you're looking at where we are today and then looking at over the next few years and and seeing that things maybe aren't as bad as it might seem at least when you've got those two things of the unknown and then the known updating the plan is the known and you can get a little bit better picture on what the future might look like for you now to the two things that maybe could give us an advantage during a time like this this is back to the law of polarity so the possible things that we might be able to use here are well first before I say it as always this is not specific advice to you so we're not looking at your your plan together so before you do anything just talk to a financial professional but idea number one to think about is tax loss harvesting that could be a way to write off some of the losses while still keeping your investment strategy intact and I talk about this concept a lot more in other videos so I'm not going to go into details on it today but just keep that in mind the one thing to to really pay attention to though when we're we're talking about the law or talking about tax loss harvesting is that wash sale rule right so look for the other videos or talk to that Financial professional before thinking about doing that the second thing that could be a possible opportunity for really the first time in a very long time is that ability or option to lock in higher yields in that conservative bucket as you know the the bucket strategy you've seen that before where we've got the possible three buckets and having that conservative bucket here is a great way to plan out and prepare for for bad markets and now at the time of this recording some of those historically conservative asset classes are paying a higher interest a higher yield than what we've seen really over the last decade which could be a silver lining during this period of time so those are just two things possible things to look at which maybe could be taken advantage of by you for for your benefit so those are just two things to think about during this period of time that we're in right now if that short video was helpful please like this and then share it with others if you think it could help them too and if you'd like to talk more about your plan feel free to reach out to me in the in the description below or go to our website streamlinedplanning.com for get you click on the get started button we don't always have space available but you'll hear back from me either way so I hope that was helpful and then I'll see you in the

it's to be in the top one percent you've got to have 2.7 million dollars in what's called net worth and net worth is just take all of your assets all of your savings accounts the value if you own a house the value of your house and subtract from it the the the debt that you have on that essentially so you just take all of your assets and you subtract all your liabilities your car alone your your mortgage your credit card debt hopefully you don't have too many of the latter two uh and that's your net worth so uh if you have a net worth of 2.7 million dollars a household net worth uh in the United States you're in the top one percent what I want to point out is you know if you look at the income boy that income is really staggering right I mean the top one percent of income is 570 000 or higher and you know some people will say well you know that number seemed a little low I was expecting that top one percent income to be higher and I I agree but that's like the last person that made it into the top one percent so there's plenty of people in that category that are making a lot more money but think about this you know the the lowest income in the top one percent is almost six hundred thousand dollars right it's five hundred and seventy thousand dollars yet to be the top one percent in savings you just need two point seven million dollars or more um and what that tells me is you know as a society as a country it's no surprise we're not saving enough money and so um it's not enough to make a great salary you've got to be able to to save it but to me that was just staggering that you know essentially that top one percent you know if they were the Savers they essentially have saved um what five years worth of income uh and most of us could not retire if we had just saved five years worth of income right so that just shows just the the importance of living below your means and and saving as much as you can okay let's keep going now I'm going to break it out by decile and again this is household this is according to the Congressional research service so the the lower quintile so there's five groups the lower one-fifth the lower 20 percent of Americans are making under twenty two thousand dollars a year then the next group up from that are making you know between that twenty two thousand and forty thousand the next group up to that is is making between forty thousand and sixty five thousand um so you can see that you know eighty percent of Americans households are making less than sixty five thousand dollars a year now I haven't got to retirement that's coming up here really soon um let me get to the top quintile the top quintile households in America are a little over a hundred and ten thousand dollars let's call it a hundred and eleven thousand dollars okay so now let's get to what I finally was able to find out so I've shared a lot of info information here and I think many of you are listening to this this uh these numbers and saying you know what I'm doing okay you know it's hard to get that high high salary but if you're saving and if if you're uh spending less than you earn if you're saving that and then importantly if you're investing that remember it's not enough to just save you have to invest it you have to get compounding working for you so a lot of you I think are looking at the at least the savings number and saying yeah we're doing okay we're doing okay and I hope you are I hope you are okay so now getting on to the uh uh the the top income in retirement uh and before I get there if you're enjoying this video take a quick second and hit the like button it really does help the algorithm uh find other people that this this video uh and my videos can help okay so um I'm gonna break this out the top 10 percent the top five percent and the top one percent so people 65 to 69.
Now this is people that are working and not working top ten percent is two hundred thousand top five percent is two hundred and sixty thousand top one percent is essentially one million dollars okay so that's 65 to 69 and now for people 70 to 74 numbers come down a little bit top 10 percent is a hundred and seventy thousand dollars top five percent uh is 260. is that right yeah 265 000 and and the last number is a million dollars so retirees to be in the top one percent of all people 65 and older you need to be making a million dollars a year just to put that in perspective that rule of 25. if that's what the uh if that's what the income is then they had they'd have to have 25 million dollars in savings by the the rule of four percent I hope you found this video helpful if you did I know you're going to like this video up here that talks about average income for retirees in America in this video down here that talks about five reasons to retire as soon as you can thanks for watching bye bye

Retirement Planning in Your 50s and Beyond
user 0 Comments Retire Wealthy Tips for Retiree's
Your 50s are an excellent time to get serious
about retirement planning, and that's because at this point in your life, you may have figured
a couple of things out. You might have a decent idea of where you
spend money, what your preferences are, the things you don't care for so much, and you
might also have some financial advantages at this point in life. Perhaps you've paid off a lot of debt maybe. If you had kids, they're out of the house
or almost independent. And you might be in your peak earnings years
because you have gained some expertise and some knowledge in whatever it is you do for
a living, and one big reason to get serious is you might have more money than you've ever
had before saved up so now it really counts. A 10 % loss in the markets, for example, hurts
a lot more than it did when you were 22 years old. But whether you're just getting started saving
for retirement or you've been doing it for decades there are some important things that
come up in your 50s that can help you pave the way to a smoother retirement down the
road.
The first thing to watch for is catch-up contributions,
and this is not the condiment, this is a catch-up contribution that allows you to put extra
into your retirement accounts each year once you reach age 50. The IRS sets maximum limits on how much you
can contribute to those accounts, but at 50, you can do a little bit extra and that helps
to boost what goes into those accounts each year for example in your 401k or 403 b or
governmental 457 you can put in an extra six thousand six hundred dollars per year as a
catch-up contribution on top of the max that you had back when you were 49 years old and
your knees didn't hurt as much. For traditional and Roth IRAs, for 2022 that
number is a thousand dollars of extra catch-up contributions. Of course, this is assuming that you have
the cash flow to make the maximum contribution and put the catch-up contribution on top of
that, and if you don't, that's okay, it's not feasible for everybody, just do what you
can. But if you are really trying to maximize your
account balances at retirement, those catch ups are a powerful tool.
The next thing to do is to look at your Social
Security and pension benefits. It's a good time to start getting a realistic
expectation of what you might get, and that's because you might assume that you're going
to get a lot more or a lot less, but it's really helpful to start figuring out how those
systems work and how much you can expect each month. If you're eligible for Social Security, you'll
want to go through your earnings history and make sure that that is accurate because if
any years are missing you may end up with a smaller monthly retirement benefit. Your benefit is based on your 35 highest earnings
years, so you want to make sure that those good earning years are in there and that you
don't have any unnecessary zeros in your history. Keep in mind that you may be able to get some
retirement benefits from a former spouse or your current spouse, so if you're widowed
or divorced, for example, you want to research those potential benefits and you might also
be able to get income on your spouse's earnings record if you are still married and there,
are some strategies you'll want to look at as you go through that process.
By the way, I'm Justin Pritchard, and i help
people plan for retirement and invest for the future. So, there will be some resources down in the
description below that cover this in more detail and give you some other pointers. Another smart move is to manage your debts
or make a strategy for them. So, if you have consumer debts like credit
cards for example, you definitely want to plan to eliminate those debts and make sure
that your spending stays within your income limits so that you're not digging yourself
a hole during retirement or as you head towards retirement. But what about so-called "good debts" in retirement? For example, a mortgage. There's a lot of benefit to being debt-free
and not having a mortgage payment when you're in retirement a lot of people really focus
on getting rid of that loan before their retirement date but it's not necessarily the end of the
world to have a mortgage in retirement, and paying it off quickly out of your retirement
funds can cause some problems.
As long as you can fit that monthly payment
into your income maybe that's your Social Security, pensions, and some withdrawals from
savings accounts, and you can manage that debt comfortably, then again, it's not the
end of the world, and remember that that loan payment will eventually go away someday which
frees up cash flow for other expenses maybe health care expenses later in life. Speaking of expenses, how much are you going
to need to spend? Well, that's something to start figuring out
and there are a couple of different ways to do that this video that's going to pop up
above will give you some pointers on that but basically you can look at your spending
today and maybe adjust that for inflation or you might look at an income replacement
ratio and say maybe I just need 80 percent of what I'm earning now that might or might
not be right for you or you can target a certain level of spending such as $50 or $100,000
whatever the case may be, and with those numbers you can set a goal to start heading for once
you have an idea of your spending and your retirement income sources and your assets
then you can run some calculations and again we're setting your expectations so that you
know if you're on track or not and this can alert you to some potential shortfalls or
maybe let you know if you could retire earlier than maybe you expected there are a lot of
helpful online calculators out there they can do a decent job of getting you in the
ballpark but make sure you understand what their limitations might be so they don't necessarily
get super detailed and you might not be able to adjust all of the assumptions but again
you can get some basic ideas of if you're sort of close or if you're way off on what
you expected another good move in your 50s is to refine your investment strategy so up
to this point you may have been doing some great things to get you to the point where
you are you've built up some nice assets but if you've been using high risk strategies
maybe speculating maybe day trading that sort of thing it's time to ask yourself if that's
something that you want to continue doing at this stage in life it is difficult to consistently
get good results with those high risk approaches and you might have more to lose now than you
did previously.
I'm not saying you can't do it or definitely
don't do it but I would say proceed with extreme caution and maybe just say hey I've done a
good job up to this point maybe I'll reevaluate what I'm going to do going forward. At 50 it's time to start thinking about long-term
care if you haven't already been thinking about it there's a 70 percent chance that
you might need some type of long-term care and that might include everything from somebody
helping you out at home maybe this is a loved one assuming you have somebody at home who
is willing and able and remember it could be physically and emotionally difficult and
it might require expertise but it could include somebody helping you out at home who you know
or you going into a skilled nursing facility and paying those higher costs that are associated
with that higher level of care there are several ways to deal with the costs and that might
include a long-term care insurance policy but those are kind of problematic so definitely
look into them but consider some other alternatives as well maybe instead of maybe to supplement
or maybe you just go with insurance but some other options include saving up assets and
earmarking those for a long-term care event or maybe looking at your home equity as a
safety net to cover some of those big expenses that's not necessarily a fun way to spend
your time so one of the other things you can do is envision how you want your retirement
to unfold and this is a really important step that a lot of people skip it's important to
have something to do with yourself once you stop working you might have gotten a lot of
your social engagement a lot of your meaning and some of your identity out of your work
and you might want to not necessarily admit that but for a lot of people that's the case
it's easy to say that the main thing you're looking forward to in retirement is not going
to work but you probably want to have some ideas on how you're going to fill your time
and that way you're going to number one enjoy it more and number two there might be some
real benefits in terms of your mental and physical health if you are retiring to something
as opposed to just retiring from work, so ask yourself how will you fill your days? What are you most excited about and interested
in? What can you do to find some meaning and some
purpose during that time? And who might you spend time with, and what
are your plans for keeping your physical health as good as you can possibly keep it? So, I hope you found that helpful.
If you did, please leave a quick thumbs up,
thank you, and take care..
Retirement Planning: I’m 66 Years Old With $800,000, Can I Retire?
user 0 Comments Retire Wealthy Tips for Retiree's
we all want to know do we have enough can we retire and how long will our money last well the key in retirement is to compound good decision after good decision and what that does is that helps to optimize your overall retirement assets and increase the probability that you do have enough and you can retire and most importantly you don't have to to live with anxiety throughout retirement worrying if you have enough or not in this video we're going to look at a 66 year old with 800 000 saved and really get into some of the nuances of different decisions that have to be made in the potential outcome of those various decisions [Music] hi i'm troy sharp ceo of oak harvest financial group certified financial planner professional host of the retirement income show and certified tax specialist the purpose of these videos is to help get you thinking along the lines of what decisions need to be made and how they are all interrelated from social security to health care to investments in asset allocation to managing risk to taxes to really get get you thinking about all the decisions that have to be made and how one decision impacts other decisions as we go through these what you'll start to see with retirement is that it's just as much an art as it is a science because everyone's situation is so unique everyone's circumstances are so different so we're going to look at some different variables here but we're going to start out with some very basic ones so first we have john and jane just a sample case male female both age 66 and just retire now we're in texas so we put texas as a state residence but obviously if you live in a state with an income tax a state income tax there would be a little bit different scenario but that's why the customization is so important okay so retirement period so we like to assume a long life expectancy and the reason is that the age 85 population segment in this country is the fastest growing population segment out there also according to pew research which i brought this article up here when we look at the projection of growth this is the estimated number of people over 100 years old over the next 30 years in 1990 there were 95 000 people over age 100.
In 2015 451 thousand by 2050 this is a pew research study by the way 3.6 million people estimated to be over the age of 100. this is advances in science and technology and medicine and treatment to help people overcome various diseases that they may they may find themselves with in retirement so underestimating life expectancy is a big mistake for a retirement planner because if we plan for 95 or 90 and you don't make it that far well you have that money you're secure but if we plan to 82 and you make it to 90 well guess what that's a big problem so when we talk about life expectancy this is one of the pieces of financial planning that is specialized to you and yourself you know your health you know your longevity you know what health problems you may or may not have of course we can customize this for your particular situation but most people from my experience underestimate the advances in medicine technology and science that will continue to extend our lives as time progresses we have treatment right now for various diseases and cancers that even five ten years ago we didn't have so underestimating our life expectancy is one of the big mistakes that people make now if you do have health conditions if you smoke if you drink you're probably not making it to 95 that would be customized for your particular situation but generally speaking i'd much rather plan for you to live to 95 and you don't make it there then plan for you to live to 85 and then you make it to 95 and then the plan obviously would be insufficient because there wouldn't be enough money to pay for health care to keep up with inflation taxes etc so that's why we put the life expectancies at 95.
okay this particular couple what we're trying to do is account for spending and retirement of sixty thousand dollars per year of course this is after tax so if most of your money is inside a 401k or an ira there is a tax problem there to get 60 000 out we have to pull more than that after taxes to be left with 60. healthcare this is the average medicare cost for a 66 year old couple in this country now it may be a little bit more a little bit less for you depending on your prescriptions and various out-of-pocket costs but this 9 400 this is the average including medicare premiums out of pocket costs for health care expenses for a 66 year old couple in this country okay so social security john has he will file his normal application at sixty six and a half and receive thirty six thousand dollars jane will then file spousal benefits in this scenario which is um a lot of times what we see working with clients where the husband files social security and then the y files for spousal benefits of course your situation may be different again this is where customization comes in but 36 000 and 18 000 are the social security benefits now here's something very important when we look at the breakdown in assets this is where retirement planning starts to get very very fun for us because it start it's putting that puzzle together but where it becomes very complicated for for most people because they don't understand the challenges that come with having too much money inside that 401k so we did a breakdown here six hundred thousand inside the 401k and 200 000 inside the brokerage account there are literally millions and millions of different ways that you could take retirement income from this breakdown of accounts you could take x amount from the 401k take x amount from the brokerage account brokerage of course when you say this this is a non-retirement account a non-ira optimization comes into play when we we are we identify what is the appropriate amount to take out of that 401k and what is the appropriate amount to take out of the non-ira in order to not just reduce taxes today but look at the impact over the course of your retirement which income distribution strategy makes the most sense for not only today but over the next 20 to 30 years so this is the breakdown here we're going to when we look at the tax analysis in a few minutes it's going to make a lot more sense we're going to look at the top 100 different income distribution possible strategies and the impact that they have over a long period of time okay so very simple we're not looking at real estate here so a net worth of eight hundred thousand dollars because yes when you have equity in your home it's a great thing to have you can pull that out for emergencies later we just want to isolate the financial assets that this couple has saved look at them spending sixty thousand dollars a year after tax with inflation uh inflation by the way we have it two and a quarter percent i'll touch on that in a little bit because we received some comments about inflation and health care costs now health care obviously is increasing a lot more than general inflation in the economy but we just want to isolate with these financial assets is that enough to answer the big questions can i retire stay retired and maintain my standard of living so when we look over here at a monte carlo analysis so this button what we're going to do is we're going to hit it it's going to run a thousand different simulations looking at a thousand different market returns over the course of time we just have them in a basic 60 40 portfolio again asset allocation is a big part of a successful retirement but we're just trying to to provide information based on what the majority of people out there are currently doing with retirement okay so this comes in at about 87 percent so 87 percent you may be saying well is that a good number is that a bad number the truth is it doesn't really matter too much it's just a snapshot in time what's most important with a financial plan and a retirement plan is that you stay connected to this over time when markets are up or down and you have various returns over time and you're spending money as well you run into what's called sequence of returns risk which is the combination of taking money out and market losses if you take out five percent you lose 20 you're down 25 percent in a single year now if that happens in consecutive years that's where the sequence of returns risk comes in when you're in the distribution phase of retirement so yes 87 percent i would feel comfortable myself retiring if this came in at 87 percent for me because that means 870 out of a thousand simulations i die with money now it's more nuanced than that of course but what's most important is that we're tracking this over time is it staying at 87 percent is it going up is it going down that's what's really important this is nothing more than a snapshot in time now when we start to look at before we get to the tax analysis i want to come over here to what's called the play zone in this particular software that we use and i like this because it shows what happens if we spend a little bit more money or less money how does that impact our probability of success so right now we have this couple spending sixty thousand dollars after taxes let's say they wanted to spend seventy thousand though seventy one look at the impact that this has it drops it from 87 to 41 that is a massive change in probability of success now what we would do in this situation if somebody wanted to spend 70 000 of course we can customize a plan where seventy thousand is spent maybe in the first five years seven years ten years with the intention of eventually tapering it back down to an inflation adjusted sixty thousand per year so inflation adjusted sixty thousand per year what does that mean well 60 000 today if you take that out of your portfolio it will buy more goods and services than if you take 60 000 out of your portfolio in the future this is a basic time value of money concept inflation erodes our purchasing power over time so to have the same purchasing power in the future of 60 000 today we probably need to pull out 68 69 70 71 000 something in that range we'll actually look at this in a second but the 70 000 this assumes we spend 70 000 today after taxes and it's just inflating at two and a quarter percent over time now i said i would talk a little bit about inflation and right now what's going on as i record this video is we are going through a period of a bit higher inflation in some areas other areas we absolutely don't have any serious inflation the truth of the matter is whatever you believe inflation to be when we customize a plan like this for you we can look at various amounts of inflation but if you start to put it out at four five six seven percent it's very likely you're not going to have enough money to keep up with that level of inflation unless the investment returns are that or greater now positive news there is typically in high periods of inflation stocks have performed well but when we look at inflation inputs and inflation estimates it's been 12 plus years where general inflation in the economy has been under 2 we are starting to see some inflation now most experts believe that it's transitory and by the time we get to next year inflation should normalize but we'll see most importantly again what we do is we stay connected if inflation does start to to sustain itself in a way that gets above two and a half three three and a half four percent well that's why we have a financial plan we start to adjust for those changes same thing with taxes same thing with markets same thing with everything in retirement our health our goals and in the circumstances we find ourselves in they change throughout retirement that's why when we look at something like this it's just a snapshot in time we need to be able to be flexible and pivot based on whatever circumstances come our way okay so taxes i want to look at taxes now we have this this is a different software that we use to look at taxes we'll overlay this software and the outputs from this one to the other software along with a few other ones that we use then of course the human element is the most important when combining all of this together but what we're looking at here is the top 100 distribution strategies for this same couple number one tax planning and income distribution scenarios the number one ranked strategy of course is up top it shows an estimated ending balance of 663 000 and taxes paid over the course of retirement of 42 sixty so ending balance of six sixty taxes paid of about forty two thousand if we come down here to the very lowest ranked strategy so i went to number eleven it's number 101 ranked cumulative taxes 156 000 with an ending balance of 170.
so that's over a 500 000 or so change in an estimated ending balance and a hundred thousand plus in additional taxes paid what's cool about this software is it isolates everything else except your distribution strategy how much are you taking from the ira how much are you taking from the non-ira are you doing any roth conversions so being able to isolate everything else and just looking at those variables shows us very clearly that the tax planning and income planning component for this couple in this scenario john and jane is extremely important it's the difference isolating everything else between finishing with about a hundred and seventy thousand estimated or six hundred and sixty thousand so as you can see income planning tax planning play a very critical part in the overall retirement plan this software that we looked at over here this one is assuming what we call a conventional wisdom distribution strategy now this software is that's the software's weakness this does not do a great job tax planning but when we overlay the tax planning software with the financial planning software here when we get the 87 percent and we get it all done this gets it up to 90 95 96 99 a lot of times the big takeaway here is that retirement is not just about your investments it's about having a plan that looks at your investments and manages risk but also generating income tax planning and health care planning along with estate planning estate planning is very important if it matters to you what happens to your assets when you're gone so we always keep a link in the description if you want to reach out to us set a consultation have a phone call and see if this type of planning is appropriate for you it may not be appropriate for you you may not be a good fit for what we do and that's okay hopefully we still can provide value and help you become a great have a greater understanding of retirement but if you do want to talk to us there's a link below you can schedule an appointment and of course share this video with a friend or family member hit that subscribe button and thumbs up if you liked it and if you don't like it hit the thumbs down that's fine too and if you leave a comment we're gonna make an attempt to address those comments in one big video of course we can't respond to every single comment or provide personalized financial advice but feel free to comment below that helps you to know that there's engagement with this video and they'll help share it with others so they can learn as well

Why This Investment System Can Help Retirees Worry Less About Their Retirement Plan
user 0 Comments Retire Wealthy Tips for Retiree's
I wish to share an investment system for retired people to hopefully help you as you'' re believing regarding as well as preparing for your retired life we'' re additionally mosting likely to check out exactly how to prepare your retired life for the numerous potential prospective economic Seasons that we may be headed into so we intend to consider the several seasons and afterwards the Easy System that'' s going to aid lower taxes and afterwards lower danger as well currently if I place'' t met you yet I ' m Dave zoller and also we aid people prepare for as well as Apply these retirement methods actually for a select variety of people at streamline Financial that'' s our retired life preparing company but since we can'' t help everyone we intend to share this with you too so if you like retirement specific videos regarding one each week be certain to subscribe so in order to develop a proper investment plan in system we want to make certain that we construct out the retired life revenue plan first because without the revenue plan it'' s much more difficult to create the best investment technique it'' s type of like without the earnings plan it'' s like you ' re rating well 60 40 profile seems good or you know May possibly this amount in the conservative pail appears affordable you currently understand as well as as well as you really feel that as you get close to retired life that goal of simply even more cash isn'' t the the end-all goal that we need to actually be going for for retirement it'' s extra concerning sustainability and also assurance as well as after that actually the assurance of income and also perhaps less threat than prior to the last three decades uh things that you did to be effective with the monetary side are mosting likely to look different than the following 20 or 30 years currently if you need assistance defining the the earnings plan a little then take a look at the do it yourself retired life training course listed below this video now as soon as you do Specify your goals for retirement and then the revenue required to accomplish those goals then creating the investment system ends up being a whole lot less complicated and within the financial investment plan we actually recognize that we can just control three things in all three points we in fact desire to reduce through this investment system the initial thing we can reduce or minimize is just how much tax you pay when investing we had a a client that was not a client of simplify Financial however of a tax obligation company involving the the CPA company in March to grab his income tax return and he was completely amazed that he had sixty thousand dollars of extra earnings on his income tax return that he had to pay tax on ideal away before April 15th and it was due to the funding gains being identified and also other circulations within his investment account and also he said however I didn'' t sell anything and the account didn ' t also rise that much in 2014 and I reached pay tax on it however he was already in the highest tax bracket paying around close to 37 percent on temporary funding gains as well as rewards as well as interest so that was an unpleasant surprise as well as we see it happen regularly than it ought to however this can truly be avoided and right here'' s 2 methods we can manage tax to make sure that we put on'' t need to have that occur as well as truly just control tax obligation and pay much less of it is the goal and also I'' ll keep this at a high degree however it'' ll get the the factor throughout top is the type of Investments that you own some are perhaps funds or ETFs or private uh equities or things like that the funds and ETFs they might pass on capital gains as well as as well as distributions to you annually without you even doing anything without you offering or or getting however it occurs within the fund a whole lot of times now we would certainly use funds and ETFs that are considered tax obligation reliable so that our customers they can choose when to recognize gains as opposed to letting the fund company make a decision now the second method is by using a technique that'' s called tlh every year there'' s many several fluctuations or large fluctuations that occur in a financial investment account as well as the method that we call tlh that permits our clients that'' s tax obligation loss collecting it permits them to offer a financial investment that might be down for component of the year and after that relocate right into a really comparable financial investment as soon as possible so that the financial investment technique stays the very same as well as they can actually take a write-off on that loss on their taxes that year currently there'' s some rules around this once more we'' re going high degree yet it offsets uh you understand for that one customer that are not a customer but who had the huge sixty thousand dollars of income he can have been countering those resources gains by doing tlh or tax obligation loss harvesting that approach has actually saved hundreds and also hundreds of of bucks for customers over a period of years so on to the following point that we can regulate in our investment plan which'' s cost this set ' s less complicated yet many experts they wear'' t do it due to the fact that it ends up paying them less now considering that we'' re certified economic organizer experts we do comply with the fiduciary standard as well as we'' re obliged to do what'' s best for our clients so tell me this if you had two Investments as well as they had the specific same approach the very same Returns the exact same danger and also the very same tax efficiency would you rather want the one that costs 0.05 percent per year or the one that costs 12 times much more at point six percent well I recognize that solution is evident and also we'' d opt for a reduced expense funds if it was all the very same inexpensive funds as well as ETFs that'' s how we can really assist reduce the expense or that'' s just how you can assist decrease the price in your investment plan since every basis point or part of a percentage that'' s saved in price it'' s included to your return every year and this includes up to a whole lot in time now the last thing that we wish to reduce and manage is risk and also we currently spoke about the flaws of spending entirely based on on risk tolerance and also when it involves take the chance of a lot of people assume that term risk tolerance you understand just how much danger can we on a scale of one to 10 where are we on the the threat element but there'' s one more method to consider danger in your investment method and like King Solomon our team believe that there'' s a period for everything or like the if it was the bird song There ' s a season for whatever as well as we also think that there'' s four different seasons in spending as well as depending upon what season we'' re in some Investments perform far better than others as well as the 4 Seasons are pull it up right now it'' s more than expected inflation which we may be feeling yet there'' s additionally a season that can be less than expected or depreciation and after that there'' s greater than anticipated economic growth or reduced than anticipated economic growth and also the goal is reduce the threat in investing by making certain that we'' re prepared for every one of those potential Seasons because there are specific property courses that have a tendency to do well during every one of those seasons and we don'' t recognize no one knows what'' s truly mosting likely to occur you understand people would would speculate as well as say oh it'' s going to be this or
