Sobering but important message of what we have to be mindful we may lose at retirement:
- Income <duh>
- Identity
- Purpose
- Structure
- Community
- Relevance
- Power
Many can be replaced in retirement, but only if you're intentional w/ a plan to do so?

Re the trendy idea that technical financial skills are "table stakes" for financial planning:
Yes, they are the bare minimum that a client should expect from a planner.
But also, a client should not expect that every planner has them. Because very plainly, that is not the case.

ChatGPT provides intelligent-sounding responses, which is great when it's right, but dangerous when it's wrong because non-experts can't spot the error in the middle...

This is exactly what I talk about all the time. Helping people plan financially for aging and end of life is so important but still full of potholes even when you think you have everything figured out. 1/a few #eol #hpm

Especially this time of year, spending can be a form of self-soothing or an expression of love. But it doesn't always go well.
I enjoyed sharing ideas for this important article. Excellent and timely information from Isabella Simonetti.

Perhaps the most surprising takeaway from our latest withdrawal rate research, launching today: Swinging for the fences with a high equity % won't help and may even hurt. @syouth1 John Rekenthaler and I updated our retirement income research from 2021. 👍 morningstar.com/articles/112…

The best financial plan has nothing to do with what the markets are doing, nothing to do with what your real estate agent is telling you, nothing to do with the hot stock your brother-in-law told you about.
Are you referring to bank savings/CD rates listed at The Balance? If so, I wish they would take my name off those pages (I haven't been involved with that for a long time, and somebody else supposedly updates them—apparently not very often). Thanks for the heads up

If you want to retire at 55 (give or take), you need to be careful about how you plan. That's because most information and tools are geared for people who retire later.

How do I know I have the right asset allocation for my risk tolerance? When markets freak, I don't tweak.
Turns out I'm more risk averse than I 'should' be at my age, but what matters isn't that I could earn more if I took more risk, but that I'm not moving my money emotionally.

Forget online fraud. When it comes to stealing from the elderly, often the danger lies in a simple phone call—or a caregiver or family member, says Jim Wasserman. humbledollar.com/2022/08/bad…

Some retirees are returning to work. What's behind that? There are several good reasons. @LGers explains: kiplinger.com/retirement/604…
Hi, it's been a very long time since I wrote the article or looked into that (somebody at The Balance updates those articles periodically, which explains the recent timestamp). My guess is yes, it would likely save them money, but I can't say for sure.

There’s no shortage of ways to give to charity, but some retirees may score a special tax break by donating money from their IRA. cnbc.com/2022/07/08/heres-a-…

I enjoyed sharing ideas for this timely article. There are a variety of ways to address inflation in your investing. For me, minor adjustments make sense, and trying to completely outsmart inflation over the short term is harder than it would seem.
