Q: Why do I need a retirement planner?

A retirement planner helps you in making your retirement life run smoothly. They also help in identifying various sources of income, estimating the expenses, implementing a savings program, and helps in asset management. The major focus of a Retirement Planner is to estimate future cash flows and assets management.

Q: What does a retirement planner do?

A Retirement Planner gives you a clear understanding of the financial assets that you are aggregating along with other resources that you have such as Pensions, Social Security, Part-time work, Home Equity, etc. In this way, they help you transform these income sources to become a future asset/regular source of income that will help you in your retirement days.

Q: How much does a retirement planner cost?

Different Retirement planners charge differently. They may charge on an hourly basis, a quarterly or annual retainer fee, a percentage of assets that they manage for you, in the form of Commissions, a fixed fee to run a retirement plan.
