Approaching Retirement
Replacing doubt with certainty and confidence
The Situation
Retirement is an unfamiliar position to find yourself in and can be a time of uncertainty. You may question if you have prepared yourself well enough financially for the days and years ahead without the salary you have been used to? Finding yourself in a new situation is often uncomfortable, and retirement is no different. You’ve saved hard, but the idea of living off your savings can lead to asking yourself whether you overlooked something or if it will be smooth sailing. You may ask yourself what could happen that might prevent you from living the life you have planned.
