Taking the leap

Some say retirement is harder today than it was 5 years ago. People fear having to stop working. Families want to grow and protect their savings with little risk. Your income plan is not set and you are not sure where your retirement income will actually come from? Sound familiar? When there is fear, or a problem, there is often a solution. Meeting with an advisor if only once, or meeting with your advisor regularly, can ease the tension in knowing how your savings are doing, how to make your savings work for you, and how your savings match up against an ever changing stock market. Different strategies offer different solutions - and not one strategy is perfect, nor perfect for every family. This week on Retirement360, MWA advisor, Alan Mercurio and host, Randy Cook, discuss the fears, confusion, and solutions in assisting families as they prepare and transition to retire.Retirement 360 is a Sunday morning radio tradition in the Louisville, Kentucky area, running for well over a decade. Alan Mercuio and Troy Bolton of Mercurio Wealth Advisors take a look at economic issues and topics related to retirement planning, as well as educating listeners to help prepare them for their post-working years, whatever they may have in mind for them.
