Planning for Retirement

Your investments should work together to help you reach your financial goals. You have access to many investment products and services. Here are some we offer to help you build your plan for the future and for now.

401(k) Distribution Options

If you’re changing jobs or retiring, you’ll need to decide what to do with assets in your 401(k) or other qualified employer-sponsored retirement plan. These savings can represent a significant portion of your retirement income, so it’s important you carefully evaluate all of the options.

Advisory Services

Our Advisory Services can help you save time managing investments. Find out how we can offer financial guidance and help you keep up with the markets. Our programs allow flexibility in how much your professional portfolio manager does for you or with you.

Business Services

Your company is one of your most important assets. It’s the product of your hard work. We can offer your business a variety of customized products and services, from employee benefit plans to insurance and help with succession planning.

College Savings Plans

Saving up to pay for your child’s college education doesn’t have to interfere with your retirement goals. 529 plans and trust funds are designed to help parents and grandparents save for a child’s education. Planning for retirement, managing your investment portfolio, and funding a college education is a balancing act. The trick is to plan ahead.

Estate Planning Services

Everyone could use an estate plan. It’s not about what you own – but putting you in control. Estate planning can often be fairly simple with professional help. Sometimes it’s more complex. Make an appointment with us to talk about your estate planning goals.

Individual Retirement Accounts

Find out ideas on how we can help you reach your retirement goals with an IRA. Even if you already contribute to a 401(k) or another qualified employer-sponsored retirement plan (QRP), you should consider investing in an IRA. It can help supplement those savings and give you access to a wider range of investments.

Insurance

Insurance can play a key role in helping preserve your assets and achieve your financial goals. Plan to help protect all aspects of your financial life: family, business, retirement, and legacy. Consider how insurance can help protect the people and causes you care about the most.

Investment Products

Developing your investment plan includes choosing which products and services might help you meet your financial goals. We can discuss what might work for your situation and help you feel confident as you work toward achieving your goals.

Retirement Planning

Creating a plan can help you stay focused, plan for challenges, and make choices that work for you. Find out how to create and manage your retirement plan. We’ll look at your whole picture. Together, we’ll prioritize your goals for the future and map out a financial course to help you achieve them.

All investing involves risk, including the possible loss of principal.

It starts with a plan

Creating a plan can help you stay focused, plan for challenges ahead, and make choices that work for you.

Our Envision planning process is the foundation we use to develop your retirement income plan. It can help you make choices and tackle the following topics:

When and how can I retire with confidence?
How can I help make my money last as long as I’m retired?
Where will my income come from?
How do I prepare for and respond to events throughout retirement?
When and how should I address my legacy goals?

7 common retirement planning moves

Will the money in your investment accounts last through retirement? Here are some steps that go beyond the basics of using tax-advantaged funds and making regular contributions.

Review your portfolio - Conduct regular investment checkups on your own and with us.
Maintain emergency savings - Wells Fargo Advisors recommends keeping an emergency fund with enough money to cover living expenses for three to six months. Keep emergency funds in a liquid account you can easily access if needed.
Set an appropriate asset allocation - Investments are fluid. Some are more volatile, but all can be affected by market fluctuations. Adjust your assets to align with your current goals and tolerance for risk.
Itemize your income plan - Understand where your retirement funds will come from. List out all sources, such as Social Security and pensions. For each item, list how it might generate income for your portfolio.
Clean up your accounts - Consider consolidating accounts. You’ll not only have less paperwork, you can help keep an eye on your asset allocation and overall investment strategy. We can talk about your choices and what might make the most sense for you. Before taking any action, speak with your current retirement plan administrator and tax professional.
Sell assets strategically - Selling assets can have tax implications. Proceeds could nudge you into a higher tax bracket. Balance the concern of minimizing taxes when you’re selling assets with your portfolio’s allocation strategy. Talk with us about the choices you have in this situation.
Talk with family - Partners and spouses should be on the same page regarding your financial portfolio. Cover some key financial details:

Current total assets
How much you have saved right now
How much is in each account
Where the funds are located
Your budget

Part of your plan is how you spend your money – now and when you retire. Talk about it.

Common risks to address

While we develop your retirement plan, you’ll want to look at risks such as inflation, market events, health needs, withdrawal strategy, and how long you’re likely to live. Understanding the impact these challenges may have on your savings and planning for them can help you stay the course.

Have an ongoing process

Planning for retirement is not a “one and done” kind of activity. A good plan should be checked regularly and adjusted, as necessary. Keep an eye on your portfolio, talk about your expectations, and prepare for the unexpected.

Schedule an annual checkup with us to review your plans, your current circumstances, and your portfolio. We’ll work together to discuss your choices and what works for you.

Wells Fargo Advisors does not provide tax or legal advice.

Investing involves risk including the possible loss of principal. Asset allocation cannot eliminate the risk of fluctuating prices and uncertain returns. Diversification does not guarantee profit or protect against loss in declining markets. Stocks offer long-term growth potential, but may fluctuate more and provide less current income than other investments. An investment in the stock market should be made with an understanding of the risks associated with common stocks, including market fluctuations. Dividends are not guaranteed and are subject to change or elimination.
