Planning Retirement? Think Hard. Stuff Happens.

Remember 1966? What if you retired then? Would it have made a difference if you retired in 1967 instead? Can you time retirement? If not, how do you reduce your risk when there's no time to rebuild all over again?
Power of the Model

1966 was the year the American public was introduced to Doritos; Chevrolet released the first Camero; Star Trek hit the tv screens and the top song that year was “I’m a Believer” by the Monkees.

It was also the year that William Bengen discovered in his research that 1966 was the worst year for someone to retire!

No one can know when a bad, let alone a “worst”, year will happen. What we do know is we don’t want to outlive our money and end-up broke in our old age.

Is there a way to protect against this? Why not attend my short 22-minute webinar that just might make a world of difference in you planning? You’ll find it here.

Enjoy!
