Decumulation Versus
Accumulation

When you decide to retire, you will have to create a monthly income out of the retirement savings you have accumulated. Instead of earning and saving, you’ll be spending. The trick is, how do you spend without running out of money? Decumulation is a whole different way of thinking!

Traditional versus
Roth IRA Accounts

What is the difference between a traditional IRA versus a Roth IRA account? A traditional Individual Retirement Account is created with pre-tax money, while a Roth IRA is created with after-tax money. So which type of account you choose to open has to do with your tax situation and what your tax situation will be during your retirement.

Portfolio Diversification to
Withstand Market Volatility

When you are young and just starting out in your career, waiting out market downturns and continuing to invest makes a lot of sense; you can benefit from dollar-cost-averaging. But if you’re getting close to retirement, market downturns can lead to a complete depletion of your funds if you don’t diversify properly.
