<\/p>\"\"Five easy pointers to help you plan all during your retirement years\u00a0<\/em>\n

If you\u2019re retired, you enjoy good news in that you\u2019ll probably live longer and perhaps better that your parents and grandparents did. The bad news: You\u2019ll live a longer and perhaps more expensive life, too.<\/p>\n

You face decisions your parents or grandparents likely didn\u2019t face before you.<\/p>\n

This means every year you need to re-evaluate your situation and health to ensure the foundation for your retirement (which might include years of less-than-great-health). Let\u2019s say you are 58 \u2013 you need to plan for the next 37 years \u2013 more than a third of your life.<\/p>\n

Pointers to Help Plan During Retirement<\/strong><\/p>\n

Here are five areas to consider, in ascending order of importance:<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Costs of advice.<\/strong> You probably have a lot of questions. How much do you pay someone now to help you coordinate your investments? How much do your investments cost?<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    Is your portfolio sufficiently diversified? Did you buy annuity policies that you don\u2019t really understand and that may become expensive for you to own? Do you need someone to only manage your investments or to also provide financial planning advice?<\/p>\n

    The average American spends more time analyzing the cost of a new TV than the costs and qualities of a financial advisor.<\/p>\n

    2. Social Security. <\/strong>Don\u2019t decide about benefits and lump-sum pension choices without input from an objective financial planner \u2013 or you may leave significant money behind. Remember too that the Social Security Administration won\u2019t necessarily provide advice on your best strategies.<\/p>\n

    3. Your home and future health.<\/strong> Consider the final 15-plus years of your life. Where will you live when you\u2019re 80?<\/p>\n

    In a large home with stairs? Will most of your wealth center around your home as your retirement years tick past? Who will care for you if you can\u2019t yourself (don\u2019t plan on a spouse, as you may become a widow or widower)?<\/p>\n

    Get objective advice on long-term care planning and your options for a reverse mortgage to convert your home equity into cash.<\/p>\n

    4. Know what you own. <\/strong>Are you one of the tens of thousands with half-forgotten old 401(k) plans from previous employers? Have multiple accounts with various brokers? Outdated estate documents or long-forgotten life insurance policies?<\/p>\n

    Consolidate your holdings and paper trail, a kindness not only to your current recordkeeping but also to your future heirs.<\/p>\n

    5. Make your wants clear.<\/strong> Include your adult children or siblings in a frank discussion about where your assets are and your preferences for treatment if you end up in the hospital.<\/p>\n

    You don\u2019t need to give specific dollar information, but family or friends need to know your preferences and where to find your assets if you die or can longer communicate. Death and taxes are inevitabilities we all face. Make that time as easy as you can for your executor and heirs.<\/p>\n
