Video: How much can Retirees spend in Retirement

A #Morningstar article from January #2025 describes their latest #studies and #simulations from 2024 about the #sustainable #withdrawals from your #retirement portfolio, and I would like to share the results. Affluent #retirees are #living #longer, and traditional #pensions have declined in prevalence. Meanwhile, many retirees are working well past the traditional retirement age of 65. This video outlines what you need to know about retirement income planning. While there’s no one-size-fits-all plan, the #4% rule has been a popular approach. According to the 2024 data, how much can you spend in retirement so your #portfolio lasts 30 years?

Video: How to Spend Money

This video is about people who have been #saving their whole #lives and now have trouble #spending #money. We have trouble with #decumulation. The video discusses being #mindful about spending on #experiences, knowing what your #values are so that you gain from your spending, including #altruism and #donations. Using a #budget is also recommended, to know how much you can and should spend, to enjoy the fruits of your #labor.

Video: Wealth Building Strategies by Net Worth

I walk you through what your main #priorities should be at each #stage of #networth and show you what #changes (and what stays the same) as your #investment #portfolio begins to grow. You have different #priorities at a negative net worth compared to when you’re at over a #million. We look at #mortgages, #debt, #creditcard debt, #studentdebt, living beyond your means and #lifestyle creep, the importance of #insurance, an #emergencyfund, #saving #rate, #interest #rates, using #index #ETFs, #bonds, #privateequity and #realestate. The importance of #financialplanning, #tax #planning and living an appropriate #lifestyle is also mentioned.

Video: A Canadian Retirement Study

I discuss a May 2024 Harris #Poll on #Canadian #retirement, done on behalf of #EdwardJones. We discuss what the survey found as #keys to #success in retirement, what financial course corrections one can make, like #reducing #debt, #maximizing #savings, following a #plan and a #budget, and getting #financial #education and #Financialadvice. It is important to #testdrive your retirement first if you can, and two-thirds of #Millennials are concerned that their #parents or #in-laws may not have enough money to live comfortably in retirement.
