You are receiving this email because you signed up to receive our free e-letter the Wealth Whisperer The Perfect Storm: Why Your Retirement Plan Might Be in Danger (And What You Can Do About It) 07/01/2024 Your 401(k) is a ticking time bomb. The retirement plan you've been counting on? It might leave you high and dry when you need it most. Here's the cold, hard truth: Market volatility, longer lifespans and skyrocketing healthcare costs are creating a perfect storm that could sink your golden years before they even get started. But don't panic just yet. While Wall Street fat cats are busy peddling the same old "buy and hold" snake oil, a little-known strategy could be your financial life raft. Imagine a "personal pension" that guarantees steady income, no matter what the market does. [And it’s easier to achieve than you think.]( In this eye-opening exposé, we're going to pull back the curtain on the retirement crisis that's brewing right under your nose. You'll discover: - Why your 401(k) might not be the bulletproof vest you thought it was - The hidden danger that could cut your retirement savings in half overnight - How the timing of your retirement could make or break your financial future - A powerful strategy to create your own "personal pension" and secure your retirement By the time you finish reading, you'll have a clear map to navigate the markets and enjoy the retirement you've always dreamed of. So, grab a cup of coffee and settle in -- your financial future might depend on what you're about to learn. The 401(k) Dilemma: Not the Retirement Panacea We Thought Remember when your company HR rep sold you on the 401(k) plan? "It's the key to a comfortable retirement," they said. "Just set it and forget it," they said. Well, they lied. Okay, maybe "lied" is a strong word. But they certainly didn't tell you the whole truth. Here's the deal: 401(k)s were never designed to be your only source of retirement income. They were meant to supplement pensions and Social Security. But as pensions went the way of the dodo, 401(k)s got thrust into the spotlight as the primary retirement vehicle for millions of Americans. And that's where the trouble begins.

Reality check: Even if you're one of the rare few maxing out your 401(k) every year (that's $22,500 in 2023, or $30,000 if you're over 50), it might not be enough. Why? Because life has a funny way of throwing curve-balls when you least expect them. Myth #2: "My employer match is free money. That'll cover any shortfalls." Wake-up call: While an employer match is great (and you should absolutely take advantage of it), it's not a magic bullet. Most employer matches are around 3-6% of your salary. That's a far cry from the 15-20% total savings rate many financial experts recommend for a comfortable retirement. The Triple Threat to Your 401(k) So, what's really putting your 401(k) in jeopardy? It's a triple threat of factors that your HR rep conveniently forgot to mention: - Longevity Risk: Good news -- you're probably going to live longer than your grandparents did. Bad news -- your money needs to last longer too. A 65-year-old today has a 50% chance of living beyond 85. That's potentially 20+ years of retirement you need to fund. - Healthcare Costs: Remember when a doctor's visit cost you a chicken and a firm handshake? Those days are long gone. Healthcare costs are skyrocketing, and Medicare doesn't cover everything. Fidelity estimates that the average couple will need $315,000 saved just for healthcare in retirement. - Market Volatility: This is the big one. Your 401(k) is likely heavily invested in stocks, which means it's subject to the whims of the market. And let me tell you, the market can be one moody beast. It's this last point -- market volatility -- that poses the biggest threat to your retirement dreams. Because it's not just about how much the market goes up or down. It's about when those ups and downs happen. And that brings us to a little-known danger that could cut your retirement savings in half overnight... [Retirement in a Box: From Zero to $2,500 a Month]( There is a way retirees can collect thousands of dollars per month for the rest of their lives -- tax-free. Plus, this tax-free income source is 100% legal and approved by the IRS. And here’s the kicker: even if they don’t have enough money put away yet for retirement... even if they’re over age 60... they can still get thousands of dollars a month from this opportunity.

Your 401(k) is looking healthy after years of diligent saving and a bull market. You're feeling pretty good about your financial future. Then, boom! The market takes a nosedive. No big deal, right? After all, you've weathered market downturns before. Just wait it out, and everything will be fine. Not so fast. Welcome to the cruel world of sequence of returns risk. It's a fancy term for a simple concept that could derail your entire retirement plan. What is Sequence of Returns Risk? Here's the deal: It's not just about how much your investments return over time. It's about when those returns happen. If you face a significant market downturn in the early years of your retirement while you're withdrawing money to live on, it can devastate your portfolio. Even if the market recovers later, you might not have enough left to benefit from the upswing. It's like trying to bail out a sinking boat while someone's still drilling holes in the bottom. A Tale of Two Retirees Let's look at two hypothetical retirees: Lucky Lucy and Unlucky Ursula. Both start with $1 million in their retirement accounts and plan to withdraw $40,000 per year. Lucky Lucy retires in a year when the market is about to boom. Her portfolio grows in the early years of her retirement, easily offsetting her withdrawals. Unlucky Ursula, on the other hand, retires just before a market downturn. Her portfolio takes a hit right out of the gate, and her withdrawals further deplete her shrinking nest egg. Fast forward 10 years: - Lucky Lucy's portfolio: $1.5 million - Unlucky Ursula's portfolio: $500,000 Same starting point. Same withdrawal rate. Drastically different outcomes. That's the sequence of returns risk in action, folks.

Doesn't that protect me?" Sorry to burst your bubble, but traditional diversification isn't the safety net you think it is. Sure, spreading your investments across different asset classes can help smooth out some of the bumps. But when a major market downturn hits, it often takes everything down with it. Just ask anyone who lived through the 2008 financial crisis. And let's not forget about bonds, the traditional "safe haven" in a diversified portfolio. With interest rates at historic lows (even with recent hikes), bonds aren't providing the returns or the safety cushion they once did. So, what's a soon-to-be retiree to do? This is where that "personal pension" we mentioned earlier comes into play. It's a strategy that can help insulate your retirement income from the whims of the market, giving you a steady stream of income no matter what Wall Street throws your way. What is a "Personal Pension"? A personal pension isn't a product you can buy off the shelf. It's a strategy -- a way of structuring your retirement income to mimic the security of the good old-fashioned pension plans our parents and grandparents enjoyed. The goal? To create a steady, reliable income stream that will last as long as you do, regardless of what’s going on in the market and the rest of the world. Think of it as building your own personal fortress against the storms of economic uncertainty. The Key Components of a Personal Pension - Guaranteed Income: No more worrying about market fluctuations. Your core retirement income is locked in. - Upside Potential: Unlike traditional pensions, you're not stuck with a fixed amount. Your income can actually grow over time. - Inflation Protection: Your purchasing power is preserved, even as the cost of living rises. - Flexibility: Need a lump sum for a major expense? No problem. This strategy allows for that without derailing your long-term plan. - Tax Efficiency: Keep more of your hard-earned money away from Uncle Sam's grabby hands. - Legacy Planning: Ensure your loved ones are taken care of, even after you're gone. Now, you might be thinking, "This sounds great, but how do I actually create this personal pension?" Well, that's where things get interesting. There's a little-known financial tool that can help you achieve all of these goals, and more. It's a strategy that the wealthy have been using for years to secure their retirement, and it's finally becoming available to everyday investors like you and me. But before we reveal this retirement game-changer, let's take a closer look at why timing is everything when it comes to your retirement plan... We call this the Personal Pension 2.0. Best of all? It isn't just for the wealthy. It's a strategy now accessible to everyday investors like you and me. The Time to Act is Now The effectiveness of this strategy is time-sensitive. The sooner you start, the more powerful it becomes. Why? Because it leverages a unique financial vehicle that's currently offering returns that haven't been seen in decades. But as with all good things, this opportunity won't last forever. Your Next Steps You've worked hard for your retirement. You deserve more than to leave it up to chance or the whims of the market. If you're ready to take control of your financial future to create a retirement income that's as reliable as the sunrise, then it's time to learn more about Personal Pension 2.0.
