Baby Boomers turning full retirement age in 2020 are the last class that can take advantage of a valuable Social Security strategy. The strategy lets a beneficiary restrict an application to spousal benefits only, giving the beneficiary some Social Security income now while allowing his or her own retirement benefit to grow 8% a year until age 70.
If you are a Boomer who qualifies, it behooves you to take a good look at when you and your spouse will claim benefits. “It’s a great way to get a little extra income for four years.” —Doug Fair, JD Owner/Founder of Successful Seniors • Plan your retirement income to fit your lifestyle • Apply specific strategies designed to increase Social Security Retirement Benefits IN 2020, YOUR OPTIONS MAY BE LIMITED • Manage your healthcare costs • Reduce and eliminate unnecessary fees • Maximize the tax efficiency of withdrawals from retirement accounts • Identify and mitigate the major threats to your retirement savings • Determine whether Roth IRA conversions make sense for you |

Asset Protection
Retirement doesn’t mean that it’s time to stop growing. Same holds true for your money. It should mean, however, that it’s time to stop taking unnecessary risk.
We specialize in helping retirees protect their retirement assets while continuing to move forward. |
Family Legacy Planning
Many of our clients want to leave a legacy for their children and grandchildren and are shocked to learn how easy it is to double, even triple their inheritance – TAX-FREE AND GUARANTEED!
We also work with our clients and help them embrace their own mortality and be prepared for the loss of a spouse and the income burdens this can often create. |
Extended Care Solutions
Long-term care/extended care costs have gone up substantially in the last 10 years. Unfortunately, the statistics are not in our favor, a plan to address these costs should be included in every retirement strategy.
The good news is we work with hybrid insurance plans that leverage your dollar in case you need it for extended care, but remain 100% accessible for withdrawal if you don’t. |
Retirement Income
Creating an income plan to last throughout retirement is perhaps the single most important challenge retirees will face. It’s very likely to spend 30 years or more living in retirement without earned income.
We create a customized retirement income plan, encompassing all sources of income, for each one of our clients and no two plans are exactly alike. Let us get to work on a plan for you. |
