Step 1 of Retirement Success Plan: Investment and Portfolio Analysis

I'm giving you a choice of two Investments investment a and investment B both of them return 10 over the previous year which one would you rather have been invested [Music] oftentimes when I ask this question to a prospective client I'll get the response Troy it doesn't matter they both return 10 Give Me A or B but when it comes to retirement planning and this is why step one of the rrsp is so important the allocation meeting it's not about the return necessarily it's about how much risk did we have to take to get that return investment A and B both had a 10 percent return but this is just one outcome in an infinite set of possible outcomes remember these are two distinct Investments with different characteristics possibly different purposes so even though they return the same the question is how much risk did we take to earn this return are we being compensated enough from a reward standpoint based on the risk that we're taking so with a high degree of statistical confidence we could analyze and say investment a had a likely downside scenario of somewhere between five to fifteen percent if a different set of outcomes or circumstances occurred that's the risk profile but invest B had a possible downside of negative 20 to negative 40 percent now with that new bit of information which investment would you choose investment a or investment B all individual Investments or combination of Investments could be plotted somewhere along this chart this is what we call the efficient Frontier over here we have the return the expected return and over here we have the risk that we're taking so ideally we have Investments that are more to the left which represents lower risk and higher up the y-axis which represents higher return so if you own five different stocks that portfolio in and of itself could be plotted somewhere on this graph if you have one security let's say you're fully invested in your company stock you could plot it right here on this graph now if you have 20 or 30 or 50 different mutual funds or ETFs or individual stocks once again that set of Investments can be plotted somewhere on this graph so when we plot investment a and investment B on the graph here we can clearly see that they have a similar return profile but investment a has less risk so this makes it easier to identify as an investment that we would rather place our dollars now down here I have investment C could be a portfolio of stocks this could be maybe if you have a lot of money invested in your company stock but we clearly see that we're taking more risk without being rewarded for that risk that we're taking another way to think about this is think of your skills and the capability that you have in your current job or in your former job if you're if you're retired would you take a salary that was much much lower than Market in order to do that same job with those same responsibilities no you probably would not I know you would not that's what we're doing here with investment C essentially we are taking risk or taking on responsibilities in that example while not being compensated for it okay so think of these letters investment a investment being investment C this was the one we wanted to be in this is the one that we took a little bit more risk for the same return and over here we just don't want to be in I want to liken this to GPA grade point average because we're all pretty familiar with that either you from your schooling experience you have kids or grandkids an a investment or set of Investments kind of I put a in air quotes here that's the GPA so what we want to do with your portfolio in retirement is increase its GPA we want to reduce risk and increase expected return now that you have a good understanding of risk and return and how every set of Investments can be placed somewhere on that graph it's now important to tie that into retirement planning so the allocation determines how much income you can take how much money will be left later in life it determines how much tax you'll pay in retirement it can also impact your health care strategy or long-term care strategy and it definitely impacts your overall estate plan so those are the five steps of the RSP and this is why the allocation is so critical it's step one because it impacts everything else when you reach out to us for the first time all we do on that first visit is get to understand who you are and what's important to you we're going to gather some of the objective data under of course understand what your vision is for retirement your goals but the objective data is the current portfolio the financial statements the tax information how much we want to spend in retirement in between that first and the second visit we're going to go through an analysis to see where your portfolio falls on that Spectrum in order to understand if there's congruence between your willingness to take risk for the expected return that your portfolio can provide and where you currently are we first have to identify what is that willingness that you have to take on risk so we have to first understand your willingness to take risk so this is a pretty simple questionnaire here simply saying over the next six months you're comfortable risking this in order to make this potential return now this is what we call a symmetrical risk return profile we're essentially risking one dollar to earn one dollar but really what we're trying to identify here is what is your comfort zone on the downside because what we're going to try to do is create a portfolio that has an asymmetrical risk return profile so less risk to achieve more potential return so are you comfortable losing seven percent over the next six months in a recession or are you fine to let it stay invested and you believe long-term capital markets are going to do just fine so you're more comfortable in the short term possibly a 13 loss there's no right or wrong answer here but everyone's personal willingness to take risk is different so we have to identify that because if you have a portfolio that has too much risk that is the one thing that will absolutely be certain to blow up a long-term retirement plan if the market goes down you call us up panicking and say Troy I need to get out of the market I can't take it anymore well you most likely won't be in there for the rebound and all the planning that we've done up to that point can be significantly impacted because we were expecting the risk profile based on the conversations that we had to be structured properly and if it's not and the markets go down then we get out well all of a sudden everything is completely messed up so this is why your risk willingness is such an important concept because if we're putting a plan together we need to know that you're going to stick with it because markets will go down one other thing to point out here I like to focus on the dollar amount because percentages can be deceiving I had a client a long time ago or a prospective client come in and say Troy I'm comfortable losing about 10 percent he had two million dollars so I said okay if the market goes down and you lose 200 000 you're okay with that he said no I fire you instantly so there was a disconnect between the 10 percent and the two hundred thousand dollars so I like to talk about risk in terms of dollars because percentages seem just they don't really drill down into our willingness to take risk whereas if we focus on the dollar amount that hits home okay so this would be coming back on a second visit and we're looking at your actual portfolio and this is very similar to what we see someone maybe told us that they're they're comfortable let's say with about 50 stock but when we do the analysis what we often find is that there's more risk inside the portfolio but on top of there being more risk oftentimes it's not the most efficiently structured so we see down here we actually have bringing the GPA back a 3.1 so this means that it's not the most efficient from a risk-adjusted return standpoint means we're we're not where we want to be on that graph an annual range 3.42 so for taking this much risk we don't want to be rewarded with an annual range midpoint here of only 3.42 percent over the next six months now we also see with the potential risk and reward over the next six months there's a 95 percent probability that this portfolio to the downside could lose 16 percent over a six-month period and the upside is plus 19 so these are very very wide guard rails okay if we extrapolate that out over the course of one year we have a negative 32 percent and a plus 38 so most of our clients aren't comfortable losing potentially 38 percent in a single year so for this level of risk based on the questionnaire that we asked earlier and they come in around a 50 risk score this is not only too much risk inside the portfolio but it's really poorly constructed from an analytical standpoint and the guardrails are far too wide we're not being compensated for the risk that we're taking and that's what this GPA right here is telling us that's the analysis that we go through between the first and the second visit and that's often what we see it's not efficiently structured the portfolio possibly too much risk and oftentimes that GPA is a lower number meaning we're not being compensated with enough expected return for the risk that we're taking so in between that first and the second visit that's what our team is doing looking at your particular situation now once you become a client and we go through that allocation visit this is step one of the RSP what we're trying to do is to create a proposed portfolio that brings first and foremost the risk number in line with that questionnaire that we asked you before we're also trying to create some asymmetry in regards to the risk that we're taking in the expected Return of the set of Investments that we've put together so now what we've done is we've lowered the overall risk score of the portfolio to be more in line with the questions that we were asking in regards to that that slider that we had on the screen if you're not comfortable with potentially losing 19 percent in a six-month period we need to bring the risk score down in the portfolio so that's the first thing that we're trying to do the second thing is we're trying to create asymmetry here so you see this we're risking nine for the potential of 15.

This is over a six month period so we extrapolate that out over 12 months it's minus 18 for plus 30. that's asymmetry when it comes to the risk return profile additionally we've increased the GPA of the portfolio so the maximum according to the software is a 4.3 so this means we're being properly compensated for the risk that we're taking the expected return is the proper compensation for that risk now anything can happen Marcus can go up or down but what we've done is we've created an efficient portfolio that when markets are up or when markets are down our potential returns are in line with our willingness to take risks but also when we've tied this into your income plan tax plan and the rest of the RSP it's all creating a much more congruent financial planning experience also the expense ratio over here I don't know if you noticed before but we had an expense ratio in the mutual funds and that current portfolio in the proposed portfolio we've eliminated those fees so in summary here during the first visit we get to know where your willingness to take risk is in between the first and the second visit we're going through and doing an analysis of your current portfolio identifying the risk score see if there's any disconnect between your willingness to take risk in the actual risk inside your portfolio but then also looking at the potential return what is the GPA what is the expected return what is the Symmetry between these two once you become a client and we go through the allocation meeting here's where we look at the proposed portfolio where we get the risk number of the portfolio in a line with an alignment with your willingness to take risks try to increase the asymmetry between the risk and the potential return increase the GPA of the portfolio and increase the expected return now all of this is a shortened version of what the actual allocation visit looks like but it hopefully conveys how important this step is because it not only determines the amount of risk or the potential downside you could see to your values in retirement it also of course contributes to the potential return which then dominoes into your income for retirement the taxes the health care plan and also the estate strategy so step one allocation extremely critical when it comes to the retirement success plan this is why we do it first [Music] thank you

Retirement: I’m 60 Years Old with $900K in Savings. Can I Retire Now? What is My Risk Capacity?

so you're 60 years old with nine hundred thousand dollars saved and the question is can you retire in today's video we're going to look at a few different decisions that could be made the impact those decisions have on the plan with the overall goal of not running out of money hi I'm Troy sharp CEO of Oak Harvest Financial Group a certified financial planner professional host of the retirement income show and a certified tax specialist in today's case study we're going to look at a situation that's not too dissimilar from what we normally encounter in our day-to-day operations here at Oak Harvest Financial Group so we have James who's 60 years old he comes in and he says Troy I want to spend about seventy thousand dollars and I'm just tired of working I want to to this year to be my last year so I want to spend seventy thousand dollars I think I'm going to live to about 90 years old pretty good health and I want this fifty thousand dollars to increase with inflation over the course of my retirement but for the first 10 years and what I hear you talk about in this go go spending phase I want to spend an additional 20 000 per year bringing that first 10 years of spending up to 70 000 per year then that go go spending goes away and then we have the inflation adjusted 50 000 to plan for from age 70 to age 90.

Hey just a brief Interruption here to ask you to subscribe to the channel now what that does for you is that puts us Oak Harvest Financial Group and all the content we produce in your little TV Guide so you have a much easier way to come back and find it later share this video with a friend or family member and also comment down below I love to respond to the comments now if you have any questions about your particular situation or you'd like to consider becoming a client of Oak Harvest feel free to reach out to us there's a link in the description below but you can always reach out to us and give us a call and have a conversation to see if we might be a good fit for each other James tells us that since he wants to retire as soon as possible he he thinks it makes sense to take Social Security the first time available so claiming at 62 a little more than two thousand dollars a month at twenty five thousand dollars per year he also has that nine hundred thousand dollars broken out to four 401K money of 700 Grand then 200 000 in a taxable account or what we call non-qualified outside of the retirement account very important to point out here that the tax characteristic of these two accounts and the Investments inside them and the interest and dividends and the withdrawals from them are taxed differently so that's part of an overall tax plan now James also has a home that's completely paid for and worth six hundred thousand dollars but he's told me that I don't want to use this to fund any of my retirement goals I've lived in this home for a long time I want to stay in the home but we know from a planning perspective that we do have that in our back pocket if it's needed down the road so James's total net worth here is about 1.5 million looking at the paid off home of six hundred thousand the 700 Grand inside the 401K and the 200 000 of non-qualified or taxable account assets now as part of the process to understand where someone is and where they're trying to get to we have to understand how is the portfolio currently allocated so James tells us that Troy I know I've wanted to retire so I've been investing aggressively and trying to get ahead of the game but here we are in 2022 and the markets have pulled back some so that double-edged sword is starting to kind of rear its rear its head but we see James's 93 stock so one of the questions that we have from an internal planning perspective is if we keep this same level of risk while we retire and start taking income out of the portfolio what does that do for what we call the risk capacity or the portfolio's ability to take on risk while Distributing income in the retirement phase so we have to look at the guard rails and guard rails are essentially a statistical calculation of probabilities of the portfolio returning this much on the high side and a good year and this much on the downside in a bad year if these guard rails are too far apart and we're taking in income out if we run into a bad couple of years that bump up against that bottom guardrail but we significantly increase the risk of running out of money so part of the analysis of the planning is is this an appropriate guard rail for this type of portfolio given the desired income level so with everything we've looked at so far the question is if James continues doing what he's currently doing and retires with the desired spending level the assets that he's accumulated living until age 90 what is the probability that he has success well it comes in at about 61 so that's probably not a good retirement number it's something we want to see if we can work to improve so I'm going to pull up the what if analysis here and start to look at some of these different decisions that we could make and see if we can get this probability to increase okay so now we have the what if analysis where we have two different columns up here on the board right now they're identical we're going to keep this one the same as the base case everything that we just went through but now we're going to start to change some of these variables to see what the impact those decisions have on the overall retirement plan and this is much more of an art at this stage than it is a science because we want to start to explore different scenarios and then see what is most comfortable for you once you understand the impact of these different decisions you can take some time to kind of way think about them weigh the the pros and cons and now we're starting to work together to craft you a retirement plan that gives us increased probabilities of success but also something that you feel very very comfortable with so the first couple of options we have which are the most simple and usually have the biggest impact on the plan is that we can either work longer or spend less so James says no I don't want to spend less I have a specific plan I want to get my RV I want to travel the country I want to play some golf I've done my budget I need to spend that 70 000 for the first 10 years so the first thing we'll look at is the impact of working another couple of years so I've changed the age here to 63 as far as Retirement the only variable we're going to change at this time I don't want to change too many variables at once I want to see the impact of different decisions how they impact the overall plan okay so that gives us a bit of an increase but the next thing I want to look at here is social security so Social Security is a very valuable source of guaranteed lifetime income first it's an increasing stream of income it increases with inflation but two no matter what happens with the stock market that income is always going to be coming in so instead of taking the 62 and having a significant reduction in the lifetime income that we receive because I don't want to change spending we still have the 50 and 20 in here I want to change the Social Security from taking it a 62 to taking it at full retirement age okay so changing the Social Security election day gets us up to 76 we're definitely moving in the right direction here after a conversation with James and he realizing that you know what I do feel really secure with that increased social security income because if the market doesn't cooperate I know I'm still going to have that much higher income later in life so that would lead us down the road to say okay let's look at adding more guaranteed lifetime income if we can get your Baseline income to cover a majority of your spending needs then we don't need the market to perform necessarily as well later in life so now we want to look at the impact of adding more guaranteed income to the plan which has the effect of providing more security later in life because if the markets don't cooperate we know we have a certain level of income being deposited every single month no matter how long we live so if you go to our website here it's Oak harvestfinancialgroup.com com we have up top an income writer quote where this is constantly searching for the highest amounts of guaranteed lifetime income that are available in the marketplace simply input the variables here so in Texas age 60 Ira money income starts we're going to start looking at seven years here and I know the dollar amount I would want to put in 300 000.

The good news here is you can input any of these different variables we don't ask for your information so it's a calculator tool that you can play with on your own Single Life payout and we get quote okay so here's the output screen we have all of these different companies over here when you see the same company twice it's because that company offers multiple different products with the same income Rider so an income writer is just an addendum or an attachment to a contract that guarantees no matter what the stock market does a certain amount of Lifetime income based on the specifications you input so about thirty three thousand dollars here so that's about 11 percent of the initial deposit with that income starting in year seven this is why we call it a deferred income annuity because it gets a guaranteed growth to calculate a guaranteed lifetime income that you then would incorporate into your plan so in this what-if analysis we come down here we I've already inputted so three hundred thousand dollars and then we just calculate these scenarios okay now we're up to 87 percent here so now things are starting to look a little bit better let's make a couple of different adjustments here because remember when I talked about the guard rails that's too aggressive of a portfolio given the income need especially in the beginning years but now that we've added some deferred income into the plan the portfolio's capacity for risk increases later in life and all that means is because there's so much income coming in the portfolio can withstand a bit more volatility later once Social Security and the Deferred income annuity kick on because you're needing to take less from the portfolio so let's make a couple more adjustments here so after retirement we don't want to keep the the current investment strategy let's get a little bit more conservative here go from an aggressive plan to something a little bit more conservative and then you know what let's also say now that we're starting to move in the right direction instead of retiring at 63 what happens if we retire at 62.

Get your retired one year earlier than some of these other numbers okay now we're at 83 percent retiring at 62. I want to look at one more variable here because you may want to get a part-time job James may want to be a starter at a golf course maybe he wants to work in the church and he can get ten thousand or fifteen thousand dollars a year maybe just wants to work two three months out of the year so the next thing I want to look at is if we've done all this now what happens if during this first 10 years of retirement he decides he wants to work three months out of the year or maybe just a part-time job and work one or two days a week so instead of needing twenty thousand dollars per year we just need another ten thousand let's say from the portfolio so really that's only earning ten thousand dollars extra in retirement income you could do that driving Uber many different choices there you know what I'm just going to decrease this no I'll leave it there now with James deciding to maybe work part-time here to reduce that spending need in the first 10 years let's see if we can also get them retired at 61.

Okay so now James has decided that working part-time and hey we're talking 10 grand here so this isn't a lot of money now I want to see what happens if we go back to the original goal that James had of retiring as soon as possible at age 61. so we're going to change this back to his original goal 61 calculate all scenarios and now this gets us up to 94 so we started at 61 if where James was originally at whenever he came in if he kept doing whatever he was already doing we got him up to 94 percent here okay I want to take a minute before we finish the final Concept in this video to discuss some of the adjustments we've made so far to get James from 61 to 94 so first and foremost we adjusted the Social Security election strategy secondly we added that deferred income annuity thirdly James has decided to work part-time to generate ten thousand dollars per year in those beginning years to help reduce the burden of taking out an additional twenty thousand dollars of retirement income and then finally we've brought the guardrails in on the Investment Portfolio which helps to eliminate very bad outcomes that could happen with his original 93 allocation to stocks we haven't totally went to bonds or cash we've just brought those guard rails in by reducing our Equity exposure in the beginning years of retirement we can always adjust that later now last thing I want to do is look at what we call the combined details all of these things together in a spreadsheet just so we can see how these different pieces are working together and then look at what we call different Monte Carlo analyzes so now I want to share with you some of the individual trial analysis that we run just like we would for a normal client to help identify not only where the weak spots are in the portfolio but how these different decisions that we're making impact the overall client balance and it's not just looking at what we call an average rate of return it's looking at a thousand different simulations we're going to look at a couple here and the Order of the return so check out the video if you want to understand more about this concept you can click the link up above and the title of the video is how eleven percent average returns could destroy your retirement and that'll really get home that concept of it's not about what you average but it's about the order in which you realize returns over the course of your retirement during the day distribution phase so here we have this individual trial and we're gonna it's the median scenario out of a thousand different scenarios so I just want to go through this fairly quickly with you and based on some of the adjustments to the portfolio we see the investment return column here so all of this I think averaged out to I think it was about four and a half percent gross returns I can go back and double check that in a second but you see it's it's never four four four four four four four four or six six six six this is what it looks like in the real world so James retires essentially the beginning of 2023 we have the Deferred income annuity clicking on here we've changed Social Security to click on here so if we add these two together come heck or high water there will be minimally 74 000 almost 75 000 deposited into his bank account every single year now if we look at the retirement need it's about sixty one thousand dollars plus the discretionary Go-Go spending is about twelve thousand two ninety nine so about seventy three thousand dollars but what this does is because we're getting so much from these two sources it really reduces the need for the portfolio to perform and if we kind of go out go on out through retirement you see Social Security isn't increasing income so later in life now we're up to about 89 almost 90 000 of income and our ninety thousand dollars inflation adjusted retirement income need is covered by the amount of guaranteed lifetime income that we have in the portfolio which then allows our portfolio balances to stabilize because we're not needing it to support our lifestyle later in life so this is just one example here but we see the ending portfolio value even though it spends down a little bit in the beginning years okay it starts to stabilize because the income provided from the decisions that we've made put us in a situation where we don't have to withdraw so much from the portfolio Okay so now I want to look at a different trial and just to confirm here the 500th scenario was an average of 4.6 but you saw the different order of those returns and how we actually got to 4.6 okay so if we slide this up here let's assume it's a pretty bad scenario this is going to let me change it here find a worse return okay so this brings the average down to 3.05 and we still see in bar graph form here that the portfolio value still is stabilized and it's primarily because that change in the Social Security decision and adding the Deferred income annuity it still puts us into that position to where if the market doesn't perform we have enough income from guaranteed sources that we're not dependent on the stock market to provide us income in retirement especially later in life when we typically are more conservative and most people that I've worked with don't have the same stomach at 80 or 82 to stay invested in Big Market pullbacks as they did when they were 52 or 62.

Now what I want to show you is the comparison to what we just looked at in the individual trial analysis to the original plan that came in at 61 percent with all the original inputs so if James just wanted to retire not go see anyone make any adjustments I want to show you what that looks like on the individual trial analysis so remember in this scenario we kept Social Security at 62 no job so the spending stayed at seventy thousand twenty thousand was that go go spending no change to the portfolio so we still have the aggressive portfolio which brings in the possibility of some pretty bad outcomes and no deferred income annuity here to help stabilize the income generation later in life as well as the volatility impact on the portfolio so when we when we look at this so here we go um had James has a 900 000.

You see we have none of the annuity income here Social Security starts out at about 26 000 for him a little more than two thousand a month now look at the investment returns here because it's a more aggressive portfolio the range the guard rails are increased here and then finally the spending we have the fifty thousand plus twenty thousand increasing for inflation with the Go-Go lasting 10 years so in the first 10 years of retirement we see things are going pretty well even at this spending level because we have some pretty good returns in here even though we have a couple bad years but what happens is the income because of inflation the income need increases later in life and we see it really just takes a couple of bad years here minus 21 minus 12 we go from a million to 755 and then it's pretty much all downhill from there in this particular scenario running out of income except for Social Security which is now only up to about forty four thousand dollars per year compared to the other plan with the Deferred Social Security so full retirement age and the Deferred income annuity we were at I wanted to say it was around 85 88 000 um of income not dependent on the stock market here we're only at 45 in the mid 80s so that means we have to take more out of the portfolio so it's more susceptible to bad returns later in retirement now the big takeaway here is this is what a good retirement planner does it's not necessarily about the investment returns it's about determining how much money you should have in the market when you should take Social Security we didn't even get into taxes here additional benefits could be provided through tax planning but what you should do with taxes and identifying those spending goals and those needs in order to get you retired and stay retired and then staying connected to this plan over time that's what a good retirement advisor does it's not about outperforming the market it's about finding a plan that gets you and keeps you retired just a brief reminder here to subscribe to the channel now what that does is that puts us in your TV Guide here on YouTube so it doesn't cost anything but if you subscribe to the channel you can come back to us much more easily down the road make sure to comment down below and also share this video with a friend or family member that you think could benefit from what we're talking about today [Music] foreign

Retirement: I’m 60 Years Old with $900K in Savings. Can I Retire Now? What is My Risk Capacity?

so you're 60 years old with nine hundred thousand dollars saved and the question is can you retire in today's video we're going to look at a few different decisions that could be made the impact those decisions have on the plan with the overall goal of not running out of money hi I'm Troy sharp CEO of Oak Harvest Financial Group a certified financial planner professional host of the retirement income show and a certified tax specialist in today's case study we're going to look at a situation that's not too dissimilar from what we normally encounter in our day-to-day operations here at Oak Harvest Financial Group so we have James who's 60 years old he comes in and he says Troy I want to spend about seventy thousand dollars and I'm just tired of working I want to to this year to be my last year so I want to spend seventy thousand dollars I think I'm going to live to about 90 years old pretty good health and I want this fifty thousand dollars to increase with inflation over the course of my retirement but for the first 10 years and what I hear you talk about in this go go spending phase I want to spend an additional 20 000 per year bringing that first 10 years of spending up to 70 000 per year then that go go spending goes away and then we have the inflation adjusted 50 000 to plan for from age 70 to age 90.

Hey just a brief Interruption here to ask you to subscribe to the channel now what that does for you is that puts us Oak Harvest Financial Group and all the content we produce in your little TV Guide so you have a much easier way to come back and find it later share this video with a friend or family member and also comment down below I love to respond to the comments now if you have any questions about your particular situation or you'd like to consider becoming a client of Oak Harvest feel free to reach out to us there's a link in the description below but you can always reach out to us and give us a call and have a conversation to see if we might be a good fit for each other James tells us that since he wants to retire as soon as possible he he thinks it makes sense to take Social Security the first time available so claiming at 62 a little more than two thousand dollars a month at twenty five thousand dollars per year he also has that nine hundred thousand dollars broken out to four 401K money of 700 Grand then 200 000 in a taxable account or what we call non-qualified outside of the retirement account very important to point out here that the tax characteristic of these two accounts and the Investments inside them and the interest and dividends and the withdrawals from them are taxed differently so that's part of an overall tax plan now James also has a home that's completely paid for and worth six hundred thousand dollars but he's told me that I don't want to use this to fund any of my retirement goals I've lived in this home for a long time I want to stay in the home but we know from a planning perspective that we do have that in our back pocket if it's needed down the road so James's total net worth here is about 1.5 million looking at the paid off home of six hundred thousand the 700 Grand inside the 401K and the 200 000 of non-qualified or taxable account assets now as part of the process to understand where someone is and where they're trying to get to we have to understand how is the portfolio currently allocated so James tells us that Troy I know I've wanted to retire so I've been investing aggressively and trying to get ahead of the game but here we are in 2022 and the markets have pulled back some so that double-edged sword is starting to kind of rear its rear its head but we see James's 93 stock so one of the questions that we have from an internal planning perspective is if we keep this same level of risk while we retire and start taking income out of the portfolio what does that do for what we call the risk capacity or the portfolio's ability to take on risk while Distributing income in the retirement phase so we have to look at the guard rails and guard rails are essentially a statistical calculation of probabilities of the portfolio returning this much on the high side and a good year and this much on the downside in a bad year if these guard rails are too far apart and we're taking in income out if we run into a bad couple of years that bump up against that bottom guardrail but we significantly increase the risk of running out of money so part of the analysis of the planning is is this an appropriate guard rail for this type of portfolio given the desired income level so with everything we've looked at so far the question is if James continues doing what he's currently doing and retires with the desired spending level the assets that he's accumulated living until age 90 what is the probability that he has success well it comes in at about 61 so that's probably not a good retirement number it's something we want to see if we can work to improve so I'm going to pull up the what if analysis here and start to look at some of these different decisions that we could make and see if we can get this probability to increase okay so now we have the what if analysis where we have two different columns up here on the board right now they're identical we're going to keep this one the same as the base case everything that we just went through but now we're going to start to change some of these variables to see what the impact those decisions have on the overall retirement plan and this is much more of an art at this stage than it is a science because we want to start to explore different scenarios and then see what is most comfortable for you once you understand the impact of these different decisions you can take some time to kind of way think about them weigh the the pros and cons and now we're starting to work together to craft you a retirement plan that gives us increased probabilities of success but also something that you feel very very comfortable with so the first couple of options we have which are the most simple and usually have the biggest impact on the plan is that we can either work longer or spend less so James says no I don't want to spend less I have a specific plan I want to get my RV I want to travel the country I want to play some golf I've done my budget I need to spend that 70 000 for the first 10 years so the first thing we'll look at is the impact of working another couple of years so I've changed the age here to 63 as far as Retirement the only variable we're going to change at this time I don't want to change too many variables at once I want to see the impact of different decisions how they impact the overall plan okay so that gives us a bit of an increase but the next thing I want to look at here is social security so Social Security is a very valuable source of guaranteed lifetime income first it's an increasing stream of income it increases with inflation but two no matter what happens with the stock market that income is always going to be coming in so instead of taking the 62 and having a significant reduction in the lifetime income that we receive because I don't want to change spending we still have the 50 and 20 in here I want to change the Social Security from taking it a 62 to taking it at full retirement age okay so changing the Social Security election day gets us up to 76 we're definitely moving in the right direction here after a conversation with James and he realizing that you know what I do feel really secure with that increased social security income because if the market doesn't cooperate I know I'm still going to have that much higher income later in life so that would lead us down the road to say okay let's look at adding more guaranteed lifetime income if we can get your Baseline income to cover a majority of your spending needs then we don't need the market to perform necessarily as well later in life so now we want to look at the impact of adding more guaranteed income to the plan which has the effect of providing more security later in life because if the markets don't cooperate we know we have a certain level of income being deposited every single month no matter how long we live so if you go to our website here it's Oak harvestfinancialgroup.com com we have up top an income writer quote where this is constantly searching for the highest amounts of guaranteed lifetime income that are available in the marketplace simply input the variables here so in Texas age 60 Ira money income starts we're going to start looking at seven years here and I know the dollar amount I would want to put in 300 000.

The good news here is you can input any of these different variables we don't ask for your information so it's a calculator tool that you can play with on your own Single Life payout and we get quote okay so here's the output screen we have all of these different companies over here when you see the same company twice it's because that company offers multiple different products with the same income Rider so an income writer is just an addendum or an attachment to a contract that guarantees no matter what the stock market does a certain amount of Lifetime income based on the specifications you input so about thirty three thousand dollars here so that's about 11 percent of the initial deposit with that income starting in year seven this is why we call it a deferred income annuity because it gets a guaranteed growth to calculate a guaranteed lifetime income that you then would incorporate into your plan so in this what-if analysis we come down here we I've already inputted so three hundred thousand dollars and then we just calculate these scenarios okay now we're up to 87 percent here so now things are starting to look a little bit better let's make a couple of different adjustments here because remember when I talked about the guard rails that's too aggressive of a portfolio given the income need especially in the beginning years but now that we've added some deferred income into the plan the portfolio's capacity for risk increases later in life and all that means is because there's so much income coming in the portfolio can withstand a bit more volatility later once Social Security and the Deferred income annuity kick on because you're needing to take less from the portfolio so let's make a couple more adjustments here so after retirement we don't want to keep the the current investment strategy let's get a little bit more conservative here go from an aggressive plan to something a little bit more conservative and then you know what let's also say now that we're starting to move in the right direction instead of retiring at 63 what happens if we retire at 62.

Get your retired one year earlier than some of these other numbers okay now we're at 83 percent retiring at 62. I want to look at one more variable here because you may want to get a part-time job James may want to be a starter at a golf course maybe he wants to work in the church and he can get ten thousand or fifteen thousand dollars a year maybe just wants to work two three months out of the year so the next thing I want to look at is if we've done all this now what happens if during this first 10 years of retirement he decides he wants to work three months out of the year or maybe just a part-time job and work one or two days a week so instead of needing twenty thousand dollars per year we just need another ten thousand let's say from the portfolio so really that's only earning ten thousand dollars extra in retirement income you could do that driving Uber many different choices there you know what I'm just going to decrease this no I'll leave it there now with James deciding to maybe work part-time here to reduce that spending need in the first 10 years let's see if we can also get them retired at 61.

Okay so now James has decided that working part-time and hey we're talking 10 grand here so this isn't a lot of money now I want to see what happens if we go back to the original goal that James had of retiring as soon as possible at age 61. so we're going to change this back to his original goal 61 calculate all scenarios and now this gets us up to 94 so we started at 61 if where James was originally at whenever he came in if he kept doing whatever he was already doing we got him up to 94 percent here okay I want to take a minute before we finish the final Concept in this video to discuss some of the adjustments we've made so far to get James from 61 to 94 so first and foremost we adjusted the Social Security election strategy secondly we added that deferred income annuity thirdly James has decided to work part-time to generate ten thousand dollars per year in those beginning years to help reduce the burden of taking out an additional twenty thousand dollars of retirement income and then finally we've brought the guardrails in on the Investment Portfolio which helps to eliminate very bad outcomes that could happen with his original 93 allocation to stocks we haven't totally went to bonds or cash we've just brought those guard rails in by reducing our Equity exposure in the beginning years of retirement we can always adjust that later now last thing I want to do is look at what we call the combined details all of these things together in a spreadsheet just so we can see how these different pieces are working together and then look at what we call different Monte Carlo analyzes so now I want to share with you some of the individual trial analysis that we run just like we would for a normal client to help identify not only where the weak spots are in the portfolio but how these different decisions that we're making impact the overall client balance and it's not just looking at what we call an average rate of return it's looking at a thousand different simulations we're going to look at a couple here and the Order of the return so check out the video if you want to understand more about this concept you can click the link up above and the title of the video is how eleven percent average returns could destroy your retirement and that'll really get home that concept of it's not about what you average but it's about the order in which you realize returns over the course of your retirement during the day distribution phase so here we have this individual trial and we're gonna it's the median scenario out of a thousand different scenarios so I just want to go through this fairly quickly with you and based on some of the adjustments to the portfolio we see the investment return column here so all of this I think averaged out to I think it was about four and a half percent gross returns I can go back and double check that in a second but you see it's it's never four four four four four four four four or six six six six this is what it looks like in the real world so James retires essentially the beginning of 2023 we have the Deferred income annuity clicking on here we've changed Social Security to click on here so if we add these two together come heck or high water there will be minimally 74 000 almost 75 000 deposited into his bank account every single year now if we look at the retirement need it's about sixty one thousand dollars plus the discretionary Go-Go spending is about twelve thousand two ninety nine so about seventy three thousand dollars but what this does is because we're getting so much from these two sources it really reduces the need for the portfolio to perform and if we kind of go out go on out through retirement you see Social Security isn't increasing income so later in life now we're up to about 89 almost 90 000 of income and our ninety thousand dollars inflation adjusted retirement income need is covered by the amount of guaranteed lifetime income that we have in the portfolio which then allows our portfolio balances to stabilize because we're not needing it to support our lifestyle later in life so this is just one example here but we see the ending portfolio value even though it spends down a little bit in the beginning years okay it starts to stabilize because the income provided from the decisions that we've made put us in a situation where we don't have to withdraw so much from the portfolio Okay so now I want to look at a different trial and just to confirm here the 500th scenario was an average of 4.6 but you saw the different order of those returns and how we actually got to 4.6 okay so if we slide this up here let's assume it's a pretty bad scenario this is going to let me change it here find a worse return okay so this brings the average down to 3.05 and we still see in bar graph form here that the portfolio value still is stabilized and it's primarily because that change in the Social Security decision and adding the Deferred income annuity it still puts us into that position to where if the market doesn't perform we have enough income from guaranteed sources that we're not dependent on the stock market to provide us

You see we have none of the annuity income here Social Security starts out at about 26 000 for him a little more than two thousand a month now look at the investment returns here because it's a more aggressive portfolio the range the guard rails are increased here and then finally the spending we have the fifty thousand plus twenty thousand increasing for inflation with the Go-Go lasting 10 years so in the first 10 years of retirement we see things are going pretty well even at this spending level because we have some pretty good returns in here even though we have a couple bad years but what happens is the income because of inflation the income need increases later in life and we see it really just takes a couple of bad years here minus 21 minus 12 we go from a million to 755 and then it's pretty much all downhill from there in this particular scenario running out of income except for Social Security which is now only up to about forty four thousand dollars per year compared to the other plan with the Deferred Social Security so full retirement age and the Deferred income annuity we were at I wanted to say it was around 85 88 000 um of income not dependent on the stock market here we're only at 45 in the mid 80s so that means we have to take more out of the portfolio so it's more susceptible to bad returns later in retirement now the big takeaway here is this is what a good retirement planner does it's not necessarily about the investment returns it's about determining how much money you should have in the market when you should take Social Security we didn't even get into taxes here additional benefits could be provided through tax planning but what you should do with taxes and identifying those spending goals and those needs in order to get you retired and stay retired and then staying connected to this plan over time that's what a good retirement advisor does it's not about outperforming the market it's about finding a plan that gets you and keeps you retired just a brief reminder here to subscribe to the channel now what that does is that puts us in your TV Guide here on YouTube so it doesn't cost anything but if you subscribe to the channel you can come back to us much more easily down the road make sure to comment down below and also share this video with a friend or family member that you think could benefit from what we're talking about today [Music] foreign

Retirement: I’m 60 Years Old with $900K in Savings. Can I Retire Now? What is My Risk Capacity?

Hey simply a short Disturbance right here to ask you to subscribe to the channel now what that does for you is that places us Oak Harvest Financial Team and also all the material we produce in your little TV Overview so you have a much simpler means to come back and find it later share this video with a good friend or family participant and likewise comment down below I enjoy to respond to the comments now if you have any concerns concerning your particular circumstance or you'' d like to consider ending up being a client of Oak Harvest really feel complimentary to get to out to us there'' s a link in the summary listed below however you can always reach out to us and also provide us a call and have a discussion to see if we may be a great fit for each various other James informs us that given that he desires to retire as quickly as feasible he he thinks it makes sense to take Social Protection the very first time readily available so declaring at 62 a little even more than two thousand dollars a month at twenty five thousand dollars per year he additionally has that nine hundred thousand bucks damaged out to 4 401K money of 700 Grand after that 200 000 in a taxable account or what we call non-qualified outside of the retired life account extremely vital to aim out below that the tax characteristic of these two accounts and the Investments inside them as well as the rate of interest and also dividends as well as the withdrawals from them are taxed in different ways so that'' s component of a total tax obligation plan currently James also has a residence that ' s totally paid for and also worth six hundred thousand dollars yet he'' s told me that I put on'' t desire to utilize this to fund any of my retirement goals I'' ve lived in this residence for a long time I desire to remain in the residence however we understand from a preparation point of view that we do have that in our back pocket if it'' s needed down the roadway so James'' s overall web worth right here is about 1.5 million looking at the paid off house of 6 hundred thousand the 700 Grand inside the 401K and the 200 000 of non-qualified or taxable account properties currently as part of the process to comprehend where somebody is and where they'' re attempting to get to we have to understand just how is the profile currently alloted so James informs us that Troy I understand I'' ve wanted to retire so I'' ve been spending boldy and attempting to get in advance of the game yet here we are in 2022 as well as the markets have actually pulled back some so that double-edged sword is starting to kind of back its back its head yet we see James'' s 93 supply so one of the concerns that we have from an inner planning perspective is if we maintain this very same degree of threat while we retire and begin taking revenue out of the profile what does that do for what we call the risk capacity or the profile'' s ability to take on danger while Distributing revenue in the retired life phase so we have to look at the guard rails as well as guard rails are essentially an analytical calculation of likelihoods of the portfolio returning this much on the high side and also a great year and also this much on the drawback in a poor year if these guard rails are as well far apart and also we'' re taking in income out if we run right into a bad pair of years that bump up against that bottom guardrail however we dramatically raise the risk of running out of cash so part of the analysis of the planning is is this a proper guard rail for this kind of profile given the preferred revenue level so with every little thing we'' ve looked at so much the question is if James continues doing what he'' s presently doing and also retires with the desired investing degree the possessions that he'' s gathered living until age 90 what is the likelihood that he has success well it comes in at regarding 61 so that'' s possibly not a great retirement number it'' s something we want to see if we can function to boost so I ' m going to pull up the what if evaluation here as well as start to look at some of these different decisions that we might make and also see if we can obtain this probability to enhance all right so currently we have the what if evaluation where we have 2 different columns up right here on the board right currently they'' re similar we ' re going to maintain this one the same as the base situation every little thing that we simply went via however now we'' re going to begin to change some of these variables to see what the impact those choices have on the total retired life strategy and this is much even more of an art at this phase than it is a scientific research due to the fact that we want to begin to check out different situations and also then see what is most comfortable for you once you comprehend the effect of these various decisions you can take some time to kind of method assume about them evaluate the the pros and disadvantages and also now we'' re beginning to work with each other to craft you a retired life plan that provides us boosted likelihoods of success however also something that you feel really really comfy with so the first couple of choices we have which are the most easy as well as typically have the biggest effect on the strategy is that we can either function longer or invest much less so James states no I wear'' t desire to spend less I have a specific plan I desire to get my Recreational vehicle I desire to travel the nation I want to play some golf I'' ve done my spending plan I need to invest that 70 000 for the first 10 years so the initial thing we'' ll appearance at is the influence of functioning another couple of years so I'' ve altered the age right here to 63 as much as Retirement the only variable we'' re going to alter at this time I don'' t want to transform as well lots of variables at once I want to see the influence of different choices exactly how they affect the general plan alright so that gives us a little bit of an increase however the following point I desire to look at right here is social safety and security so Social Safety is a really beneficial resource of guaranteed lifetime earnings initially it'' s a raising stream of earnings it increases with rising cost of living but two no matter what takes place with the stock market that earnings is always going to be coming in so rather of taking the 62 and also having a substantial decrease in the life time income that we receive due to the fact that I don'' t want to transform investing we still have the 50 and also 20 in below I desire to transform the Social Safety and security from taking it a 62 to taking it at full retired life age all right so altering the Social Security election day gets us up to 76 we'' re certainly moving in the best instructions right here after a discussion with James as well as he understanding that you recognize what I do feel truly safe and secure with that enhanced social security revenue due to the fact that if the market doesn'' t comply I'recognize I ' m still going to have that a lot greater revenue later on in life so that would certainly lead us down the roadway to say fine let'' s look at adding extra guaranteed lifetime earnings if we can obtain your Baseline income to cover a majority of your spending requires after that we put on'' t require the market to carry out necessarily as well later in life so now we desire to look at the effect of adding more surefire earnings to the strategy which has the effect of providing even more safety later on in life because if the markets put on'' t coordinate we know we have a specific level of revenue being deposited every single month no matter exactly how long we live so if you go to our web site here it'' s Oak harvestfinancialgroup.com com we have up leading an income author quote where this is continuously looking for the highest possible amounts of assured life time earnings that are available in the industry simply input the variables here so in Texas age 60 Individual retirement account money income starts we ' re going to start looking at seven years below and I recognize the buck quantity I would certainly desire to place in 300 000. I want to look at one more variable right here since you may want to get a part-time job James might want to be a starter at a golf course perhaps he wants to work in the church and he can get ten thousand or fifteen thousand dollars a year maybe just desires to function 2 3 months out of the year so the next point I want to look at is if we ' ve done all this now what occurs if throughout this very first 10 years of retirement he chooses he desires to function 3 months out of the year or maybe simply a part-time work as well as work one or 2 days a week so instead of needing twenty thousand dollars per year we simply need another 10 thousand allowed ' s say from the profile so actually that ' s just gaining ten thousand bucks extra in retired life income you might do that driving Uber many various selections there you understand what I ' m just going to reduce this no I ' ll leave it there now with James deciding to perhaps work part-time right here to reduce that investing demand in the initial 10 years allow ' s see if we can likewise get them retired at 61. We'' re going to transform this back to his original objective 61 determine all situations as well as now this gets us up to 94 so we started at 61 if where James was originally at whenever he came in if he maintained doing whatever he was currently doing we obtained him up to 94 percent below alright I desire to take a minute before we finish the last Concept in this video clip to discuss some of the modifications we ' ve made so much to get James from 61 to 94 so initial and also primary we readjusted the Social Safety and security election strategy second of all we included that deferred earnings annuity thirdly James has chosen to work part-time to produce ten thousand dollars per year in those beginning years to help reduce the concern of taking out an extra twenty thousand dollars of retired life revenue and after that finally we ' ve brought the guardrails in on the Financial investment Portfolio which helps to remove extremely bad end results that might happen with his initial 93 allotment to supplies we haven ' t entirely went to bonds or cash we ' ve simply brought those guard rails in by decreasing our Equity direct exposure in the starting years of retirement we can constantly change that later on currently last thing I want to do is look at what we call the mixed information all of these things with each other in a spread sheet just so we'can see just how these different pieces are working with each other as well as after that look at what we call different Monte Carlo analyzes so currently I want to share with you some of the specific test evaluation that we run simply like we would certainly for a typical customer to assist recognize not only where the weak areas are in the profile however just how these different decisions that we ' re making impact the overall client equilibrium and it ' s not just looking at what we call a typical price of return it ' s looking at a thousand different simulations we ' re going to look at a pair right here and also the Order of the return so inspect out the video if you want to recognize even more'regarding this principle you can click the web link up above and also the title of the video clip is how eleven percent average returns could destroy your retirement as well as that ' ll really get home that idea of it ' s not about what you balance yet it ' s regarding the order in which you recognize returns over the course of your retired life during the day distribution phase so here we have this private test and also we ' re gon na it ' s the average circumstance out of a thousand different situations so I simply want to go'with this rather swiftly with you as well as based on some of the adjustments to the portfolio we see the financial investment return column below so all of this I think balanced out to I think it was concerning 4 and also a half percent gross returns I can go'back and also double check that in a 2nd yet you see it ' s it ' s never ever 4 4 4 four four 4 4 4 or 6 six 6 six this is what it looks like in the actual globe so James retires essentially the start of 2023 we have the Deferred income annuity clicking on right here we ' ve altered Social Protection to click on below so if we include these two with each other come hell or high water there'will certainly'be minimally 74 000 nearly 75 000 transferred into his bank account every solitary year currently if we look at the retirement require it ' s about sixty one thousand bucks plus the discretionary Go-Go investing is concerning twelve thousand two ninety nine so about seventy three thousand dollars yet what this does is due to the fact that we ' re getting so a lot from these 2 sources it really minimizes the need for the profile to do and if we kind of go out go on out via retired life you see Social Security isn ' t boosting revenue so later on in life currently we ' re up to regarding 89 practically 90 000 of earnings as well as our ninety thousand dollars inflation adjusted retirement revenue requirement is covered by the amount of assured life time revenue that we have in the profile which then allows our profile equilibriums to support because we ' re not needing it to sustain our way of life later on in life so this is just one instance right here however we see the ending profile worth also though it spends down a little bit in the beginning years fine it begins to support since the revenue provided from the choices that we ' ve made placed us in a situation where we put on ' t have to take out so a lot from the profile Okay so now I want to look at a different test as well as simply to validate below the 500th situation was a standard of 4.6 but you saw the various order of those returns and exactly how we really obtained to 4.6 all right so if we move this up here allow ' s think it ' s a rather negative scenario this is going to let me alter it here find a worse return all right so this brings the average down to 3.05 and also we still see in bar chart kind below that the portfolio value still is stabilized and it ' s mainly because that adjustment in the Social Safety decision as well as adding the Deferred earnings annuity it still places us into that position to where if the market doesn ' t execute we have sufficient revenue from assured sources'that we ' re not reliant on the stock market to offer us income in retirement specifically later on in life when we generally are much more conventional as well as a lot of individuals that I ' ve worked with put on ' t have the same stomach at 80 or 82 to remain spent in Big Market pullbacks as they did when they were 52 or 62.

Step 4 of Retirement Success Plan: Health Care Planning

in between medical insurance costs medicare costs and also out-of-pocket expenses like prescriptions co-pays and deductibles you'' re expected to invest well over two hundred thousand bucks on Health Care over the training course of your retired life which doesn'' t include the capacity for long-lasting treatment costs later in life this is why Health and wellness Care preparation is tip 4 of the retirement success plan foreign step one the allotment this is exactly how we spread your Dollars around numerous Investments according to your determination to take threat and your capability to take risk to create revenue which then income preparation is tip two tax preparation is step three and also Health Care preparing right here at step four needs to be done in this series since truly what wellness treatment preparation is if you retire prior to 65 it'' s actually income and also tax preparation and the result of that is what you ' ll pay in wellness care costs so I want to go with several of the devices that we use that you can use in your home however additionally begin to consider the bigger photo as well as just how these different choices influence your overall retired life prepare the very first step in this procedure is to truly determine what selections we have and after that comprehending the influence that those choices can make so several of you will certainly have extra options than others as an example if you have every one of your cash inside your pension anytime you take cash out of that account you need to pay tax on it that raises what'' s called your changed adjusted gross income which then determines whether you get approved for an exceptional tax credit scores approve aid for a health and wellness treatment strategy or if you do not so if we conserve cash today by managing where we take distributions from in retirement how does that impact United States in 5 years in one decade in 20 years as soon as we have that clear image of exactly how these decisions can impact you today as well as into the future we can really begin to discuss the benefits as well as factors to consider for going down each course a number of you around you have a great deal of money inside your 401k or an IRA whenever we take cash out once again those distributions are subject to earnings tax there'' s nothing we can do regarding that here we have a longer term contrast of dealing with the tax obligation infestation in your retirement account by doing Roth conversions at a critical Speed over an established variety of years currently the strategy always transforms since account worths transform the tax obligation regulations can change yet from a high degree sight we see we could potentially pay 269 000 in tax obligations if we address this challenge versus over here if we adhere to the conventional wisdom path we'' re looking at regarding 7 150 Grand in taxes so this is a significant lasting obstacle the inquiry currently ends up being do we address this first or do we attempt to purposefully take money from perhaps your non-qualified which is cash that'' s beyond your pension in mix with pension withdrawals or we delay the retired life account merely pull from Bank financial savings or other possessions that aren'' t inside a retired life account do we turn Social Security on what influence does that carry the tax computation this is the ordinary healthcare costs for a pair retiring in this nation prior to age 65.

So it'' s regarding twenty four thousand 9 hundred and seventy one for a person that'' s retiring this is a couple concerning two thousand dollars a month before Medicare to make sure that'' s twenty four thousand bucks a year that ' s cash today that if we do tactically prepare for for reducing those expenses now we do have to defer the pension planning so the question becomes do we intend to save money today or is it more crucial to deal with the longer term obstacle so that 24 000 and that'' s the average price for medical insurance costs and also out-of-pocket prices now your situation might be a bit different but we sit with hundreds of individuals and when they retire before 65 that'' s a pretty excellent quote of what you ' re mosting likely to be confronted with when it involves cash outlays for Healthcare coverage prior to Medicare from a preparation viewpoint there are means that we can maintain those health insurance policy costs down we have to be very mindful of what'' s called our modified adjusted gross earnings so this is a really vital number in the tax code and also in retirement planning in basic it influences various elements of of the code but additionally it'' s computed in different ways for numerous facets of the code as an example when we'' re checking out any kind of Medicare costs increases the estimation for changed adjusted gross earnings is different than the estimation for superior tax obligation debts for decreasing your wellness insurance prices same exact same word customized adjusted gross income but it'' s calculated 2 various methods so we need to recognize several of these subtleties we'' re mosting likely to undergo these yet right here is just a calculator that we can utilize it'' s from the Kaiser Foundation there ' s a whole bunch of these online but I just desire to go through how it functions so you can enter your state right here we'' re just taking a look at the U.S average your household income so thirty 5 thousand bucks is insurance coverage offered no for your from your spouse'' s task this is health coverage number of individuals in your family members variety of grownups 21 to 64.

any kids no so the variety of the earnings number there that is the changed adjusted gross income we'' re going to obtain into in just a min just how you determine that yet we see right here we can certify if this was our circumstance the average advantage is two thousand and also three bucks each month so that'' s 24 000 a year in a tax obligation credit report that will certainly buck for buck reduce your medical insurance premiums now at the end of the year due to the fact that you have to inform the federal government what we expect our earnings remaining in advance if it ends up being various than what we'' ve informed them we may get a costs at the end of the year yet also we make it a refund if it'' s actually much less and and our aid can potentially be a lot more so just want to present you to this tool there are a number of other tools available but in order to effectively utilize this device you need to know just how to determine your modified adjusted gross revenue so this is straight from healthcare.gov it'' s important to keep in mind though that not every state joins the federal exchange we simply lately had a client we were collaborating with in New York and despite the fact that it'' s imitated the Affordable Care Act legislation the regulations are a bit various a minimum of we were told that of exactly how tweaked adjusted gross revenue is calculated it especially involves which deductions you can take to lower your modified adjusted gross earnings number down so if your state does take part in the government exchange you can most likely to healthcare.gov I'' m going to reveal you where to look as well as what to search for if your state does not participate you'' re mosting likely to need to contact them straight there should be a website and a number for some sort of hotline for help to aid figure this out you can just Google healthcare.gov m-a-g-i computation that need to obtain you here so Social Protection it'' s essential to comprehend this since a great deal of times people intend to take Social Safety early as soon as they retire yet you need to comprehend that it increases your customized adjusted gross earnings for this estimation and afterwards that can result in you paying extra in wellness insurance coverage sets you back so net you'' re not actually getting any fringe benefit by transforming Social Safety on or a minimized benefit Social Safety and security is either 100 free of tax 50 tax obligation free or 15 percent tax obligation cost-free to relying on you guessed it changed it just a gross earnings but think what it'' s likewise a various calculation than what we ' ve spoke about previously so just recognize turning your social safety and security benefit on can influence your certification for a medical care aid if you'' re retiring prior to 65. Any kind of earnings so if a spouse is still working any type of self-employment earnings and also any kind of joblessness compensation Social Safety these are every one of the revenues that enter into determining your total customized adjusted gross revenue when you'' ve determined your revenue an approximated basis for the approaching year we now have to take right into consideration any type of reduction so just listed below this chart I simply revealed you it says can I take reductions for my income if we click that this page shows up we can subtract these expenses we can not subtract these expenses so overall earnings minus certain reductions is going to equal your changed adjusted gross earnings for the function of doing this estimation this estimation once again is not the very same for all aspects of the tax code that depend on Magi to identify if you certify or do except other various other parts other benefits spousal support if your separation was wrapped up prior to January 1st 2019. educator costs if you'' re an educator as well as you pay out of pocket student funding rate of interest as well as any health interest-bearing account payment so you do not need to be functioning to make a wellness savings account payment that money can go in there on a tax obligation insurance deductible basis it grows tax deferred as well as if you take cash out for certified health care expenditures it'' s 100 tax-free every little thing so the HSA is one of the most incredible accounts out there if you'' re not making use of it something you ought to absolutely check into philanthropic contributions reliant or childcare costs clinical costs home mortgage interest a great deal of real estate tax state revenue tax obligations tuition sets you back a great deal of the expenditures that you usually would get to deduct to calculate your tax obligation responsibility you do not obtain to subtract when computing your customized adjusted gross earnings level fine currently you have a good understanding of exactly how this estimation is made to assist establish whether you qualify for an aid or not because again keep maintain let'' s keep concentrated below we'' re trying to reduce the out-of-pocket price that you spend for your health insurance coverage premiums however we do have to evaluate this choice versus the longer term tax obligation obstacles that we have inside the retirement so one of the tools that we use right here is the tax planning software that enables us as soon as we get as soon as we'' ve got this information from you we can begin to place it in right here and after that begin to have fun with a few of the numbers so let'' s claim we have a dividend portfolio that tip one the allotment visit we'' ve chose we wanted a dividend profile IRA circulations so allow'' s state we were considering doing a forty thousand buck Roth conversion right here now you'' ve come in as well as'you ' ve taken Social Protection so you just retired as well as the gross Social Security in between 2 spouses is forty 6 thousand bucks so currently we boil down below first the software application is truly cool this is mosting likely to show us other chances as an example if one spouse is still working we might make a Roth individual retirement account contribution since we'' re under the limits a few other things right here individual retirement account contribution this is very essential since this is just one of the devices we can make use of to aid reduce your customized adjuster gross earnings to get a higher aid but really this is what I'' m searching for so customized adjusted gross earnings for ACA premium tax credit report alright can be found in at a hundred and also 9 thousand bucks so currently if we go back to the Kaiser Structure site we take this mhei get in 109 000.

boil down right here send okay so we still get approved for one thousand 2 hundred as well as seventy 9 bucks or fifteen thousand 3 forty seven annually so we can still perhaps do the Roth conversion we can have that dividend as well as interest and still certify for some kind of aid right here now we'' re checking out this is based off a silver strategy one of the most you need to pay is eight and also a half percent according to the law without financial help your plan would certainly have cost concerning 2 thousand dollars a month so you have various other information down below regarding bronze strategies gold prepares so this is something where you'' re mosting likely to need to locate a specialist that collaborates with these different wellness insurance plans yet actually you have to learn see to it that these plans are going to cover whatever requires that you may have there are specific restrictions that establish the optimum out of pocket costs this is not our location of expertise the health and wellness insurance Marketplace so you certainly intend to locate someone that can help you browse the selections that you have and see to it they fit you and your medical requirements at this phase of life however strictly from a financial perspective we see just how we'' re beginning to currently do planning where we'' re incorporating the various choices that you have to make where you take earnings from do you turn Social Safety and security on are we doing Roth conversions and also looking at this analysis to determine what your Magi is and currently an additional tool where we can go in as well as plug it in and also seek to see if we certify for a subsidy so allow'' s consider if we didn ' t do the Roth conversion so let'' s state even if we began Social Protection if it'' s been just a couple of months you do have the alternative of either putting on hold Social Safety or paying it back so we can in fact reverse this decision we have a pair of ways of doing that so let'' s state we look at every little thing as well as because social safety and security has a surefire boost to it each year that we delay it allow'' s state we decide you know what I such as that principle Troy I don'' t want to take Social Protection currently we begin to examine no social safety revenue therefore you understand what I have these cost savings where I put on'' t really require to pull earnings out and let ' s look at possibly refraining a Roth conversion simply to kind of see what that is still mosting likely to have the rewards since we have money spent and we put on'' t want to allow the the tax tail necessarily Wag the Pet dog meaning we require to generate income we have an investment strategy so we'' re simply gathering info so we come down right here as well as we see now our changed insurance adjuster gross earnings is twenty 3 thousand so we can go back and forth we can say what is the boost to the costs if we do a 60 or 70 or 80 000 conversion in any case we can check out that come back to the calculator it need to be quite comparable to what it remained in the start however just to show you twenty 3 thousand whatever else is the same we struck send 2051 back to twenty four thousand bucks a year so possibly we can do an additional Roth conversion so there'' s no real exact right solution below you can start to see now how it'' s kind of great since we still have this tax problem long term to where if we put on'' t address this and also especially right currently where we have a much larger chance to fill up these tax obligation buckets up due to the Trump tax obligation cuts which are vanishing in 2026 so it'' s an equilibrium right we have to make a few of these decisions however I just intended to kind of show you why step 4 of the retired life success plan is so vital is because these choices can assist place even more cash in your pocket today and also when we start to look at these choices I'' m constantly a large proponent of keeping even more cash in the pocket today since rmds put on'' t beginning on that particular retired life account till you'' re 73 potentially 75 depending on your age we have even more time to deal with that issue where this is an assurance where if we do these points let'' s claim take no cash out of the individual retirement account do not transform Social Safety and security on live off the non-qualified or non-ira counts if we can place two thousand bucks added monthly in your pocket today it'' s an assured win I like that I'' m aboard with it the 2nd component of medical care planning is the long-lasting treatment side of points a lot of of you have taken treatment of a moms and dad or you recognize a person that has or perhaps you'' re experiencing that now and you understand not just the monetary problem that that can develop yet likewise the emotional and time concern so we have to decide do we intend to self-insure do we want to acquire what'' s called a standard long-lasting care insurance plan or do we wish to take a look at some more long-term choices so when we'' ve done those initial 3 actions we can start to extrapolate out right into the future do a level of sensitivity analysis to see okay ideal instance situation most likely or or mean scenario and afterwards worst situation situation and see roughly just how much money that we are anticipated to have less so below we have the Genworth expense of treatment calculator so you can Google this it'' s simply generous price of care calculator enter your ZIP code take a look at the hourly day-to-day monthly prices we have a little slider where we can check into the future to see what the projected costs are these are based on median expense so not the most you can pay not the least yet right there you understand between in Houston presently for for residence health and wellness treatment forty five hundred a month is the average I moved this out 25 years it'' s estimated to be 9 500 each month now we have customers right currently that are investing twenty thousand dollars a month to deal with their parents for house healthcare most of you recognize the individual tale that I completed my grandparents this was practically twenty years ago I was ideal out of college I took three years to look after them due to the fact that my grandfather had two aortic aneurysms and also in country North Carolina they were being charged 40 000 monthly 2 registered nurses 12 hr changes 24 hr a day 40 Grand each month so these prices are throughout the board yet this is an useful calculator to type of allow you know what the mean remains in your particular location but please understand you might likewise invest a lot even more currently some people will need look after thirty days some people will certainly need look after a long time if it'' s something like Alzheimer'' s or dementia so you have to consider your individual situations however what I'' m attempting to access is we'' re just trying to make use of data to assist understand just how much we can possibly need to pay in the future if this sort of care is important to us because then we can work that right into the economic strategy once we'' ve gathered a few of this info and involved just how essential to intend for long-term care it is to you or your partner we can start to make use of the financial planning software application to truly check out what are a few of things that we'' re terrified of as well as among them for numerous clients is healthcare as well as lasting care prices so let'' s say one partner at age 80 needs treatment lasting for 3 years and it'' s ninety 2 thousand bucks a year as well as state the second partner after that requires treatment for two years beginning at 92.

however it'' s not substantial care but still inflation So based upon all the planning that we'' ve done earlier having this kind of treatment scenario for both spouses reduces a plan from a 99 probability of success to an 89 so in the conversation is are you comfy keeping that now for some plans it'' s mosting likely to reduce it a whole lot much more if we'' re actually checking out your personal circumstances the possible cost in your location so lasting care is the second step when it concerns Wellness Treatment planning the very first step for most of you when you'' re retiring we ' re going to knock that out in the first couple of months of you being a customer because it involves the earnings and also the overall tax prepare for the long-lasting treatment side of points normally we'' re going to have this conversation within the first one year unless you tell us that this is a priority and also we want to relocate it up in the timeline so in summary the initial part of medical care preparation is if you'' re retiring before 65 we have to establish where your income is going to come from because where we take income and also just how the money is spent establishes exactly how much tax you pay it additionally establishes what'' s called your modified adjusted gross earnings that Magi number figure out if you receive an aid to help reduce your medical insurance costs so the initial part is figuring all that out putting the items of the problem together the 2nd component is longer term Healthcare preparing lasting treatment so for several of you this might be very very beneficial details for others perhaps you make too much cash or you'' re past the age of 65 you put on'' t need to fret about the very first component in any case everyone'' s financial strategy is personalized as well as these are points that you need to be considering whenever you'' re structure your monetary prepare for retirement [ Music] thanks

retirement my grandfather had two aortic aneurysms the next couple of years went to healthcare costs long-lasting treatment costs a decline in economic conditions triggered a few of the high rate of interest rate paying cars that they were counting on to go down the rates of interest so their revenue was greater than cut in half this experience led me to become a retirement coordinator someone concentrated on financial suggesting however with the specialty in the retirement Field I'' ve sat with thousands and thousands of family members throughout my profession which experience integrated with what occurred to my grandparents caused the production of what we call the retirement success strategy here at Oak Harvest Financial Team foreign success plan or RSP as we call it is an organized procedure that leads to a last retirement strategy that'' s personalized to your certain retirement requirements and worries it covers 5 essential areas which we'' re going to obtain into in today ' s video of what ' s vital to be successful in our point of view when it concerns retired life planning it'' s built by a group of consultants that you contend your disposal as well as operates in conjunction with the financial investment approach by your in-house investment team here at Oak Harvest Financial Team what this implies for you is that you have actually marked off the essential boxes that we'' ve discovered over our years of experience are most essential to retirement success and it'' s likewise a timeline for execution as well as a method to monitor progression so we can make modifications in actual time to ensure you'' re staying on the right track for your retired life one of the large Ideas to understand regarding retirement planning is that every solitary choice you make is adjoined when you take Social Security exactly how much you spend in retirement from which accounts you take out from all of these influence your account balances every one of these effect how much time your cash will last and also just how much revenue you'' ll need to invest these are the large inquiries that we have in retired life do I have enough for how long will certainly my cash last if something happens to me will my family members be fine how do I pay less tax every one of these points are adjoined so a great deal of times we see people come in for the very first time and they'' re one year two year three years right into retirement and also points are going swell as well as they feel like they'' re okay and also a great deal of the moments that is true but what'' s taking place is they ' re setting down a specific course every choice that you make sets you on a particular trajectory usually in the first pair years of retirement we wear'' t have adequate visibility into exactly how the choices we'' re making today are impacting the trajectory of our anticipated account equilibriums things often can feel like they'' re working out but we don'' t have that exposure to fairly see hey am I on the right path or might I be making better decisions that puts me onto a better trajectory let me reveal you what I mean international so we see below this is a plan as it currently stands is at 81 percent probability of success now 81 isn'' t a bad number can it be improved probably however we see in the starting years right here 2023 via 2025 all of these trajectories and we see the diffusion below they'' re all very carefully concentrated with each other so the very first two 3 4 5 years of retirement we do not understand which one that we'' re on as well as that can lead us right into a feeling of complacency or a false feeling of safety that states hey you understand what I'' m doing excellent I'' m doing wonderful I ' m on the appropriate path since I ' m 3 years right into retired life as well as I still have about the very same money that I started with well as you can see several of these paths eventually deviate into the red which is not excellent that implies you'' re lacking cash or you'' ve run out of cash and also others diverge right into a far more comfy and protected range right here we see 2.5 million 1.9 million 4.7 million these are all various possible paths that the choices you'' re making today and over the next numerous years might potentially put you on the purpose of the retired life success plan is to one determine that you are what'' s important to you and also how do we establish what success implies for you then we have a structure procedure that'' s based on your financial investment allowance creating earnings lowering taxes looking out for health and wellness care and afterwards estate intending the retirement success plan isn'' t simply a first plan that established it and neglect it it ' s a timeline for implementation of the crucial elements and also a procedure to continue to Monitor as well as make adjustments on the fly when essential as long as we have visibility into exactly how the choices we'' re making today are affecting our future protection what we find is you have a tendency to live a much more comfortable retired life which implies Comfort around the degree of revenue that you'' re receiving and just how much you'' re spending and also what we'' re doing from a tax viewpoint to make sure you wear'' t carry a load of risk and possibly pay way too much tax obligation down the roadway there are 5 crucial locations we really feel are necessary to have a strategy for leading right into retired life at retirement as well as after that post retired life that we remain to Screen and also change as needed display going into is an exceptionally essential part of the retirement success plan because once again we don'' t actually recognize where we ' re at on this trajectory in years one 2 three 4 or 5 it'' s concerning a partnership a partnership moving on that permits us to have presence into just how the choices we'' re production are affecting our trajectory as well as additionally allow us to change in real time when scenarios require now outside events like the supply market collapsing or the economic climate going right into the tank or inner decisions such as how much we'' re investing or if we intend to get that villa or perhaps we want a present to the children or grandkids these are all decisions that influence their trajectory that we'' re on so having that relationship and having that exposure is what enables us to be tranquil as well as recognize hey we can'do this or we can ' t do this or these are the parameters that we should operate in to see to it that we proceed on the course that we we really feel comfortable with step one of the rrsp is what we call the allowance this is an extremely vital action due to the fact that after we'' ve learned who you are just how you specify retirement success and also what your goal Czar we make a suggestion of just how you ought to spread your cash across different asset courses so assume stocks as well as other low-risk Stocks one means to think of the appropriation and why it'' s so vital is if you think concerning active ingredients in a recipe so if you have too much sugar or possibly too much salt you'' re not mosting likely to have something that'' s tasty that you neither any individual else really desires to consume but with the allowance in your retirement we'' re not discussing a negative pot roast that you can simply remodel you have lots of time possibly next weekend break we'' re speaking about your retirement and also with the wrong ingredients or the incorrect allocation you can perhaps run out of cash maybe you have to go back to work maybe you wear'' t have enough cash to aid spend for healthcare expenses for you or your spouse possibly there ' s not sufficient to take treatment of your surviving partner so this is a very crucial action in the process which'' s why it ' s step one the structure that we use to develop your allocation is what we call the core four so we have the Comfort pillar we have several streams of earnings we have the growth pillar as well as then we have the protection or alternative column some of our clients have money spread throughout every one of the core for and also for other customers it makes sense to simply have two or possibly 3 items of the core four however that'' s the framework that we utilize based on your objectives and your circumstances to construct out the appropriation for your retired life action two of the RSP is the earnings planning process so we intend to see multiple streams of income in retirement we'' d like to live off passion as high as feasible not get involved in that principle yet we also want to understand where our earnings is originating
