How to plan for retirement

  • Get started now: It’s never too late to start looking at how much you should be saving for a comfortable retirement. Review your 401(k)2 or speak with a financial professional so you are ready for anything.
  • Consider other income: Transition into retirement by keeping supplemental-income options in mind, such as Social Security and working a part-time job.
  • Be ready for anything: Enjoy peace of mind knowing that you are prepared for the unexpected, such as medical care or living in a long-term care facility.
  • BrokerCheck: Check the background of investment professionals associated with this site on FINRA’s BrokerCheck.

Building your retirement 401(k) and IRA

  • Start contributing: Check with your employer to see if they offer a 401(k) plan and if they match your contributions. If possible, max out your contributions and increase them each year to help your savings grow faster.
  • Review your plan: Speak with a financial professional annually so that they can review your 401(k) and make sure that you’re on the right path to pursue your retirement goals.
  • Find other options: If your employer does not offer a 401(k) or you are self-employed, consider a traditional IRA or Roth IRA to help you save for retirement.
  • Organize your 401(k): When you change employers, have a career change or are getting ready to retire, we are here to discuss options for your 401(k).
